I have to totally agree with the 22 V 177. Crows shot w/ the HV(1000fps) 177 go "pip" and ususally fly off in a rapid decline, while those hit w/ 22 (from RWS 48) go Whack and fall immediately. Squirels the same. Unless you head shoot every one w/ the 177. Even then its gotta get the brain. I just did get a RWS 350P(1250fps) in 177 and Ill say its not your usual air gun. I was always impressed w/ the 48, but this is a serious piece of hardware, flat shooting to 60yds, and accuraate for a spring thumper. Mine was on clearance from Midway and I couldn't resist. The are available for under $400 from several sources, even Amazon. If you need a 177, my limited experience with this one is very impressive.
