what are some cheap air rifles that can take a rabbit

>>35126011
Rabbits are small game. So I'd say any would do.

Assuming you don't mean a BB gun, that'd just wound it. A pellet gun might do if you're a good shot.

does caliber matter too much? .177 vs .22

You leave bunners the fuck alone

are the crossman pneumatic air pistols any good?

p1322, p1377?

You need at least 12 ft/lbs (16 joules) of power in order to take out a rabbit by shooting it in the head.

What kind of ammo and fps should have to efectively kill a rabbit at 30-20 metres away?

>>35126354
no air rifle meets that

>>35126011
I hate that kid

>>35126011
Most air rifles will do, it's mostly a matter of hitting your target. I'd be confident on clean kills with a .22, at least 10ftlbs, good bullet selection and lots of practice beforehand.

>>35126146
.22's carry more muzzle energy in most cases, and always have more momentum (assumign similar rifle models). This means better terminal effect in most cases.
4.5 is for target shooting, .22 is for plinking and small game.

Not OP, but myxomatosis is a thing around here and I'd rather not have bunnies suffering around here.

>>35126379
Uh? Most are more powerful than that, unless you live in a shithole like Germany

>>35126463
so post one

>pistol hunting
>small game
Anon pls.

>>35126354
4-6 ftlbs is what most online sources claim, and in my experience that's plenty for headshots on rabbits.

>>35126379
My local gunshop makes 700+J/500+ ftlbs .45 airguns.
>300gr @ 280m/s (920fps)
>405gr @ 240m/s (780fps)
For reference's sake, that's similar to .45 ACP +P.

>>35126468
Okay, I get it, you are a legit retard.

>>35126540
I just want a recommendation dude

For 100 USD, you can get a .177 Gamo or Crosman break barrel, with a scope. It'll be fine for most rabbits and squirrels. Don't go for the bottom barrel chinkshit models, they'll break on you.

Here in Yurop, you just buy a third or fourth hand German break barrel that's been in somebody's attic for ages, and kill the pests with that. Those things keep on ticking.

>>35126661
or you can just get a reall gun .22
fucking morons

>>35126682
.22 LR isn't 0.1ct/round though.

>>35126682
>>35126747
Also, most laws don't allow you to fire .22 near houses (depends on where you live) and most laws don't consider airguns firearms.

not OP but I want to get into shooting and cant really practice in my neighborhood with a real gun

Can I pick up a 1377 for cheap and be okay until I can save up for a real gun+ammo+range trips?

i just want to learn to aim and plink

>living in non free state

>>35127007
Air handguns tend to be shit. Get a rifle instead.

>>35127219
>living in a country that forbids the manufacture and ownership of new machineguns
Sad.

>>35127331
>get a rifle instead
but I cant afford one
i have heard good things about the 1377 and theres no other rifle anywhere near that price with similar quality

>>35127331
>Air handguns tend to be shit
Factually incorrect

>>35127360
Cheap airguns are always shit.
They're a pretty fun plinker, but I'd recommend getting a proper rifle as your gateway drug. Second hand models are usually your best bet.

>>35127393
I wish I lived in a world where such a thing was possible
