The beauty of drone sniping is that a .177 cal pellet can do significant damage if you can hit it. I call that sport. Better yet, take a video of it hovering over your yard, follow it to its source and file a peeping Tom complaint. The FAA may not do anything, but local police typically take a dim view of creepy people videoing others without their consent.
You don't know whether or not a flying drone is recording. Plenty of people fly without recording.

Also, it's called a federal crime to shoot down a drone, not a sport, Sport.
Have fun in the pokey.
