Thread: What air rifle for rabbits?

I use a crappy old Crosman $250 new from ron in .22 i replaced the trigger as well as the spring and fitted a gas ram and i have a Nikko Stirling 3-8x40 AO scope it loves H&N Field Target Trophy 5.53mm pellets 14.66gr @ 750fps plenty of power for rabbits or possums. the thing with air rifles is you need to find a pellet that is right for your gun and every gun is different this could take some time but once you have found a pellet it likes you wont be disappointed. also another thing to remember is the weight of the rifle, these expensive spring guns you get out there are very heavy and you dont want to be running around holding a big heavy gun all day it is a fine line to balance.
