In my 4 months here anybody that recognizes me might remember I’m limited to 13 yards for now.
Believe me I make the most of it Haa. So out the window ”opens” a new world. I have woods and
swamp behind house, which is great but 5 or so years ago the town put in a bike trail. So I gotta be
more cautious. Well the original pest which started my journey in high pressure air was squirrels.
I’m doing a (to me) a necessary job of deterring them. No pleasure and some guilt in not eating them
which ive never done. This week Starlings showed up. They’re ganging up under feeder. This pisses
me off. 3 days ago got my first shots yes shots with pistol at 10 yards. WTF missed, turn out red dot
way off on Reximex. Grabbed untried Beeman and nailed first black bastard. Very satisfying feeling.
2 days ago they were out there and I miss several times huh ? Damn sit my butt down on floor and grab
Revere. Ooo man they’re in the trees about 25 to 35 yards. Pop, it tumbled to ground. THAT was
satisfying. Yesterday in cellar shooting while peeking out tiny window. Black blobs appear. Hummm ?
Akela ready but has a red dot on, how about zelos it’s got air and whatever pellets. Rest on sill,
trajectory unknown Clink! and down it falls. About an hour later same thing.
This morning a repeat from first kill. Miss with pistol and knock one out of tree with Revere 25.
Satisfaction.

....so don't feel bad! You have a wonderful stable of PCP's to get the job done. Like you, I got into airguns because rat issues...I thank them now each time I put one to sleep for getting me into airgunning! Keep up the wonderful pesting duties!
