A rabid racoon equals a drugged up human. The proper shot placement is essential...while preparing for rapid follow on shots to stop the threat

Which Caliber for Racoon? Def. not this one

Did you count how many shots it took from what appears to be a 9mm weapon? That racoon is well under 30 pounds so equate the same tactics used here to a drugged up human weighing around 170 pounds. Shot placement is essential. Being ready for rapid follow on shots is too.

Be safe folks.  I'm thinking this summer is gonna be a doozy.
