-- werry, werry quiet, is the new game in town.

and Happy Powder Smoke to one and all this weekend.

I really enjoy long barrel 22 rifles and shorts or CB caps. They are as quiet as a pellet gun and can hit harder. The downside is the cost per shot, much higher than the air guns. The first gun I had unlimited access to was a GECO carbine chambered for the 22 BB caps. It was hell on English Sparrows, crows and frogs, but did not impress woodchucks too much.

When I graduated to the 22 l.r., the woodchucks were more impressed, but only if I snuck in close and put the pill into the brain pan. If I was too far away, could not be sure of the pill making it through the skull and they could sometimes make it back down their hole. I was paid a dollar for each 'chuck, but had to supply the carcass to claim my money and if they got down the hole I did not get paid. The idea was to get rid of holes in the field, not make bigger ones by digging after them. lol

Has considerably more authority than a 177 and being nitrogen piston is pretty quiet. Haven't had a chance to test it on a squirrel yet though but price of projectiles is a whole lot cheaper and there are no shortages.

Have one, very accurate, like the peep sight, It's short but It can still be shot well by a full size person. Like the feed ramp, the cock on opening bolt and especially the accu-trigger. Personally I think it is the best of the mini-22 bolt guns. The plastic stock is hollow and if one were so inclined there is plenty of room for kit like; Bik lighter, candle, small knife, 100 rounds ammo, para-cord, space blanket, fire starter, fish hooks, Neosporin, roll of tape, garbage bag, etc. Buy one and don't look back.
