Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Air Guns Hunting air gun

I bought an R9.... It sucked goat balls.... just nicer goat balls than every other springer I've ever shot. The problem with the spring guns arrived when hunting with them, as they are very difficult to shoot from field positions and at steep upward angles (which is where the doves/starlings seem to like to hang out.)

I ended up going .22 Mac1 Discovery... and it's an absolute peach. 825fps with a 16gr JSB, and kills with authority.... even on rabbits and prairie dogs. Pump it to 2200psi and I get about 18-20 good shots.... and refills are far easier than the 3k/psi guns.
