Title: Something New to Hunt With
Post by: ghost5 on February 24, 2015, 11:07:20 AM

I have shot air guns for years, bought my first "adult" one in 2001 and still have it and like most people I bought a Gamo springer. A couple of months ago I had the chance to start shooting PCP guns in .25 caliber and WOW what a difference. Got a new sponsor and they just sent me a Hatsan .22 caliber to try and Hawke Optics sent me two of their new scopes to go with the PCPs. All I can say is if you want something else to spend money on these are a good place but they are not the same as a powder burner stay away from anything shooting over 950 fps. Anyway I thought I would post a pic of my newest one and the bunny I got out the backdoor today.

Now I am off to swap scopes for the one that I was waiting on. Oh and yes it is suppressed and the only thing you hear is the hammer hit then the pellet smacking the target.  RkLu

That'll be good with potatoes and carrots Tommy.  Nice pellet rifle.  Should keep the ground hogs out of the garden this summer also.
