I'm into shooting squirrels, rabbits and small game. Would I be able to successfully kill any small game, as listed plus more, with a break barrel airgun?

I'm just curious because I dont want to shoot it, not knowing I have no chance of killing it.

thanks for any help. I'm new to the break barrels, but not airguns.

This seems very odd since you already answered your own post this past July.

If youre going to buy it..then i suggest buying something else.
Look for a break barrel rifle. Very powerful and will take it out with ease.

More members can help you with more details.

You'll only be as effective at killing as you are at target shooting. I've killed all of those with break barrels before, but not always clean kills.

I believe if you can hit it you can probably kill it. Within limits... don't take a red rider elk hunting because you can hit the elk with it... use your brain.

A .22 breakbarrel will probably kill all of the things you want below 25 yards, greater than that you may not get a clean kill.
