Thread: Air rifle hunting pics

Most of the hunting I do is small game, and I almost always pick up one of my airguns to do the job. 90% of the time I am hunting on orchards or vineyards with houses around the boundary and using an airgun vs a rimfire gives me much more confidence in taking the shot safely, it also helps me gain more permissions to shoot on as land owners are generally much happier to allow airguns than rimfires.

I have loads of old photos of pests I have bowled over so I thought I will post some of them up here and start a thread for people to add to with their own airgun pics - I'm sure lots of you have airguns in the cupboard that get used occasionally.

These 2 rabbits were taken last night on an apple orchard 5 mins from home, both were shot at around 50m. The rifle is a Russian Edgun Matador in .22. It is currently tuned to run the 18.1 gr pellets at 905fps but I have some new 25.4gr pellets that I will be tuning it up to around 915fps in soon.
