Well, there was a fly on the target paper and my .308 Win with its Shilen Select match barrel, 155 grain Sierras over 46 grains of Varget, CCI BR4 primer and zeroed to the range. 24x scope so I could see it all. Never did see the fly after the impact but there was a funky colored smudge next to the bullet hole.
At 200 yards, that bullet was moving at 2400 FPS so figure about 2000 ft*lbs of energy at target. A fly weighs about 0.0007 pounds. In terms of energy to target weight, this should win. Not as impressive as that 4.2" mortar at 1500 meters but still impressive. Off the bench, my .308 consistenly is a 1/8 MOA rifle. |

Three shots from a .35cal Marlin to kill a red squiirel who had ruined my hunting by following me around making "alarm" noises all day.
One frog and two snapping turtles with an 8mm FN49....just because....  |

I once killed a rabbit (no shit) with an 1851 navy repro .36 cal.
It barely killed it. I thought I was going to have to beat it to death. It did finally die and yes rabbit does kinda taste like chicken. |

Anyone remember that website of a guy who ambushed deer with a full-sized black powder cannon loaded with grape shot? He hid his identity, because he knew how utterly illegal and unsportsmanlike doing this was. I think he was from Wisconsin.

A bumblebee with a .45ACP Hydra Shok hollow point. I was actually practicing at the range, but I noticed a lot of bugs were out, including a few bumblebees. One of them started to hover right in my line of fire, so I aimed and shot the fat little fucker.

When I were a 'yute I stunned a jackrabbit with a slingshot and, not knowing what to do with him, stuck an M80 under him. Hilarious at the time, not so funn-aw fuck it-it was pretty hilarious!

Once used a 12ga shotgun (birdshot) to blow away a beetle that touched my sandwich.
Point blank of course. Let's just say that bug's never going to bother anyone every again. Left nothing but a 2 inch crater in the ground. |

AK on a squirrel. 12 gauge 00 buck on squirrels.
I think the best splats are from handgun HP's, like flying ashtrays on a squirrel made ti burst like a water balloon, and a 110 grain corbon .357 totally misted the grouse I hit with it. |

Coyote at 85 miles an hour with my old Jeep Wrangler.
 +  =  I was driving downhill around a large mountain grade....just coasting along at about 85 when this coyote jumped right out in front of me. Being in a Jeep, going around a corner at a zillion miles an hour, I screamed like a little girl and held onto the wheel preparing for the worst......I never even felt it....poor little guy just vaporized. I think he made all the way across to the pumpkin of my front axle which, as you can see, is exactly "mid coyote" height.
