Hey, having you call it evolution is high praise.

I would guess rifling gerbils would best be done about the gerbil hips. A head first gerbil would probably compress backward to the "hip wad".

Therefore I'd say spin them about the hip bones, with minimal crushing. Say coved rifling. Within a range of say twenty thousandths, for gerbil anatomy/size variations, as long as the rifling was larger, a gerbil should exit the barrel intact in perfect rifling.

Loading is, as always with irregular ammunition, a problem.

Breech seems the way. Sedation or stunning.

I don't know anything about firearms, and if I did, I doubt I'd discuss this.
