Gday Kyle, I'm unsure about the lisencing for minors so I cant help you with that. there are a few good calibres out there for bunnys, the good old 22's a top rifle for beginners but if you want something thats going to give you a bit more range youd be better off going with a 22 magnum or a 17 HMR, my brother recently bought a 17 hmr and its deadly on rabbits, also highly accutate too, you can easily put 3 rounds into a 1 inch circle at 100 yards if your a decent shot and the conditions are right. cheers gibbo
