Actually I was commenting on the appropriateness of a kosher food comment in a rabbit-whacking thread. Of course killing terrorists is better than killing rabbits. This isn't a thread ABOUT culture.. it's about nuking hoppers. |

I have eaten many, and served them at the Hun Farm. No complaints here. Just like cleaning a hog, keep your hands clean, use lots of fresh water when cleaning. Jackrabbits are good eatin. TRG |

No kidding?? I was told not to eat them. Anyways, after hitting them with a .223 there was little left to eat but if you have a good recipe let me know. We might be going back sooner than last thought. |

Not kidding. Ask around, you'll find a 100 guys telling you NOT to eat them. I have not only eaten them but served them to the naysayers. they were all impressed, every time. They weigh 5-7lbs dressed. Compared to 1.5-2.5 pound dressed cottontail, I'll take the Jack anyday. TRG |

I'd make a trip down from Portland for it. I always wondered about eating them. Everybody arround here acts like I'm nuts when I talk about eating rabbits. I thought it was a west coast thing. Same with squirrel. Of course, I haven't seen any squirrels worth eating arround here. We used to use 22's for rabbit back home. |

RedGoat, I would like to take you up on that challenge.
I have tried to cook jackrabbit, and failed miserably... they're just too stringy, and refuse to get tender no matter what I do (and I am pretty experienced in the kitchen). Sure they're very closely related to domestic rabbits, but South Texas jackrabbits are (in my experience) impossible to make palatable (though I guess if it was that or starve you could survive briefly on them). They're just all fiber and tendon... I've tried slow roasting, braising, stewing and they still just don't break down into anything that looks even vaguely edible. Cottontails, on the other hand, are a different story (and yes, 5.56 is way too much gun for them). And just out of curiosity, why couldn't rabbit be kosher? Gotta ask the Israelis about that one.... |

www.jewfaq.org/kashrut.htm ": Of the "beasts of the earth" (which basically refers to land mammals with the exception of swarming rodents), you may eat any animal that has cloven hooves and chews its cud. Lev. 11:3; Deut. 14:6. Any land mammal that does not have both of these qualities is forbidden. The Torah specifies that the camel, the rock badger, the hare and the pig are not kosher because each lacks one of these two qualifications. Sheep, cattle, goats and deer are kosher." Rabbits do not have cloven hooves, and they appear to chew their cud. TRG |

Hunting is going out and taking game for the dinner table, what you did is Jack Rabbit assasination. I got no problem with that but don't call it hunting.

<------------ HELL YES I DO LIKE HIM! Crap, whats not to like, a fellow OR AR15 totin bunny slayin guru. He's my pal and I have yet to speak to him! We always make treks over to the east side but more around the Warner Valley area to feed the yotes. As for eatin those damn things, tell ya what. Kill one, let it lay around for a few hours then go back and look at the 3" long worm that crawled outta its ass looking for a warmer home. Would you eat that? If so, TRG you are more than welcome to come and follow me around and pick the pieces off of the sage brush when I'm done. Q3131A does a number on them, close and far away.

Mine wraps around the butt and a nylon cord attaches it the front of the rifle just before the sight post around the handgaurd. |
