Just wondering if most of you use an air rifle only, or use a 22 lr for small game?
I myself have always used a 22 lr, however this year the 22 lr will stay home!
Most shots I have taken at smal ... |

The gun has been improving day by day! I guess they really do need a break in! Getting velocities now in the low 800's. I do not even care if they get higher.
I gave up a lot to get this gun. I ... |
