Need an air rifle recommendation - 08/27/22
The only air rifle I've ever owned is a Daisy Red Ryder BB gun. The squirrels shake off the occasional hits and are back the next day. Time for squirrel termination.
I live in an urban neighbor hood with fairly close neighbors. What's the quietest scoped air rifle accurate enough for head shots at 75 feet or less. I'm hoping for DRT dead right there results. Don't need any wounded ones going over the fence. I've got a 4x Simmons RF and an old 4x Model 8 Leupold if the rifle doesn't come with a scope. Based on what I've read air rifles are more accurate with some pellets than others.
Considering the limited use the rifle will get I don't want to spend any more than necessary for the job.
