Presumed ,
How in the world did I miss this post. I am indeed open minded enough to know that airguns are perfect for small game.
I have a daystate PH6 in .25 and my hunting buddy, the same one that I was talking about in earlier posts, has a daystate huntsman in .22. We hunt mainly cottontails and jackrabbits in southeast Arizona and can very cleanly kill them out to 50yds.
Marcus, if you doubt this, I have pictures and even video of me doing it. I suggest you do a google search of air rifle hunting and I think it will open your eyes. There are very expensive handmade air guns up to .50 caliber that have been used to kill elk, deer, and wild hogs, check out quackenbush air rifles. I think you will be surprised.
Very good point Lost, thanks for an interesting discussion, Chris
