I liked the idea of the captive bolt gun because it wouldn't leave a pellet or bullet behind. I feed the heads to my dogs. Broomstick worked great (better than I expected) in terms of quick death. However it was more difficult to maneuver the rabbit and stick into place. With the bolt gun, I could sit down with the rabbit between my thighs so that it was gently restrained and I could take my time to position the gun. Minimally stressful for the rabbits, since they had been handled and cradled from birth.
