Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Air Guns Iguana Hunting?

Couple more pigeons after work. DRT.

I found that once the air gets a bit below that 50% line accuracy drops off. But that's still quite a few shots before needing to recharge and the compactness of this thing is invaluable.

How many shots does it take to get to 50%?

That's what she said...

I think you'll have better luck if you keep it operating between 2000 and 3000 psi.

When it hits 2000, it's not much work to bring it back to 3000.

Thanks 'bar. Will do.

I haven't counted exactly. I'd say 20-30.

And 100% ain't near what it used to be.

[bleep]. I need one of these more everyday.

Awesome video.

same here

wellp, ive taken the PCP step now bc these critters are running around my yard w no fear and the springers aint gettin it done. gotta keep everything on the DL so the old ladies wont report me on nextdoor. hell even the cat caught a squirrel yesterday, like hes ashamed of me.

dawg,

I fugkin' love this thing. I had no idea an air rifle could be so fun.

I whacked one of those invasive species doves in the yard the other day and its partner went ape schit. So I whacked it too.

Back to the garage sale, put the dogs in the yard and closed off their doggy door. Forgot about the doves. Came back and feathers everywhere. LMAO. They seemed happy.

wait ... whats this about airguns? i was talking about PCP. which is probably why im seeing vermin. and a cat

You trippin' Dawg!

folks: this thing is tits. im fascinated by it. the only sound is the spring in the action. im not ready to throw all my springers in the garbage bc nostalgia, but WOW.

So where are the iguana pictures.

The is another invasive lizard down there you need to learn and do a little population reduction.

Maybe enough collared doves to fire up the grill.

I have a question: why other than some legal reasons I’m not aware of, use one of these relatively heavy and cumbersome air guns when you can use a light trim 22 rimfire rifle shooting CB Longs which throws a 29-gr bullet (same as the 22 short) at 700 fps?

And very quiet too. Honest question.

I can see the argument that the 25 might smack a bit harder due to diameter but it can’t be that much can it? I can also accept it’s lower BC than the 29-gr .22 may be a bit of an advantage in a settled area.

Is this another version of the 270 vs the 30/06 argument? 😀

Because this is what my Anschutz 1415 will do with .22 CB Longs


And this is what my .25 cal Marauder will do at the same distance (80ish yds)

Tmitch, I see your point, or rather your problem with the CB Longs with that rifle. Interestingly, I have the same model and it shoots them very accurately as have other 22’s I’ve had.

I have nothing against airguns other than than their general bulk and weight as power goes up but there are exceptions there too. Back in the day, I thoroughly enjoyed the much simpler Sheridan .20 cals and the Benjamin .22’s.

My point was the CB Long’s ballistic pfffft generally falls in the same league as good airgun power
