Thread: which air rifle

we have a bit of land (3 acres) however its dead flat and i fell unconfitable useing my 22 due to fair of ricochts
we have a large issue with minor birds starlings and magpies during nesting season nesting in the house and barn so i need an air rifle to knock back the numbers alittle also be good to pratice on targets at home....

now for the issue...... noise.....next door are great and dont mind me shooting however i still dont want them to get a fright when an unexpected shot is herd which is why my 22 would be great if only there were good back stops.... so i need a quiet air rifle a mate has a 1000fps spring powerd gun and that thing is louder than my 22 unsuppressed i need somthing much quiter than that

i would love a pcp but cant justify the cost for the amout of use it will get

i know nothing about air rifles what are my options as cheep as possable
