Interesting Marshall -
I do most of my bowhunting around Yellowjacket Lake NW of Burns; during early spring and summer scouting, my father-in-law and I will spend part of the afternoons popping sage rats...I mostly with my longbow and Pop with a 22 single shot. I noticed Pop had the same anchoring problem as you with the hollow points and hyper velocity loads. Different story when he shoots subsonic rounds. With a mill bastard file, I made a few SGB's with the subsonics and those buggers guarantee dead rat on impact. The only thing more impressive during these trips than the SGB's is a .17 Rem :^)
God Bless,
Alan
