#2 Wait for it...
Some activist Lawyer seek media attention, will bring a legal challenge, that the Ammo Caliber, type of rifle and/or brand of ammo is untested for human executions.

With that said. IF it produces a 1 shot, kill shot, I'd buy box of the same ammo and put up a sign of the gate marked.

" Homeowner uses _____ Ammo,
a proven solution to criminals"

#4 If I take my poor old dog to the vet

Texas country is full of 'kill shelters', an oxymoron for the morons. A lot of neighborhood drop offs get laid to rest there.

I was always taught a man should be able to put down his dog or horse in a comfortable setting. 'On the table' is a terrifying way to go.

I think if the 'shoot states' ran a lottery for executioner each time, there might be a lot of tickets sold.
