So, I bought a Crossman revolver SNR 357, Dual ammo (BB/ .177 Cal pellets). I have had trouble finishing the rabbit with one try. I am thinking if you loose any of the Co2 when loading, it might not have enough power to complete the task. Yet @Bekah-n-Tennessee did 10. Is this gun not the best choice. I really was looking for a gun that allowed for quick multiple shots.
Questions for people who use a pellet pistol for dispatch please

I use a .22 pellet rifle that's specifically for hunting and I use a hunting pellet. You have to break barrel in half to **** it. It has a 10 round clip. If you put it right next to the head like described above, it puts the rabbit down pretty much instantly. They drop, stretch out their legs and are done. They usually still have hay in their mouth when it's over. I do not need a second try, it's promptly lights out. It sounds like what your using might be under-powered.
With CO2, temperature is critical. Pressure depends on temperature. Short barrel pistols simply don't have much power, if that revolver is working like a real one with a gap between cylinder and barrel that's even worse.
