jacksdad Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Barrett .50 cal Whats wrong with a 12 ftlb air rifle if its just for bunny bashing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toombsy Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 .22LR or .17HMR, and put a sound moderator on there for each rifle too. You have to have written permission of a landowner to use it on though - you can't just have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Try FAC air, get a Rapid 7 in .22 cal. very much more capable than 12ft lb on bunnies and generally what most think they are getting from an air rifle @ 12 ft lb only run it at 25 -30 ftlb with bis mags. Or a rimfire .22 lr which is simpler lighter and more powerful by far (though not as safe on the ricochets and fall out ranges generally). Remember proof of good reason permision were you can shoot the quarry in question under reasonably suitable conditions is the number one requisite, without that don't waste the ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
