Sure there's a little meat loss, but makes the packout a lot easier.

They're rats. 50 BMG isn't overkill. Have at it!

My late uncle used to say: "I would rather lose a quarter (to an over-powered rifle shot) than lose four quarters (to a missed opportunity).

Sir, it looks to me like you lost four quarters.  You broke the matrix.

Watched a YouTube video on Feral Cats in Australia. The were using a Barrett 50 on pigs until a Feral Cat showed up, the 50 did the same thing.
