Have any of you shot larger animals over the years. I'm guessing hares is biggest ill go with .22
I'm curious to hear what you guys/gals may have taken down with the larger calibers in air rifles. Springer or pcp. |

Biggest Ive taken is my wallaby with my .25cal. other than that Ive taken Hares with .22 and .177 the last hare I shot was a detuned Stoeger .177 only doing around 600fps but deadly accurate out to 30m, I took it at around 20m

That wallaby pic was great. I have no idea why that's not in hunting stories. I'd love to read about it. Im a firm believer in accuracy counts more than a super powerful rifle for the kill shot.
Had 2 easy hare shots just after dark tonight, 10 to 15m. Forgot to compensate for having the torch on. Bye bye bunnies. sigh |
