Alright, let’s get back to wild boar hunting. Using a .22 air rifle? Don’t even think about it — it’s truly dangerous.

I found this while processing a rabbit—there was a pellet lodged in the meat of one of its hind legs, but the leg wasn’t broken. I’ve never used this type of pellet before, so this rabbit must’ve been an old veteran. This time, I gave it a forced retirement. That’s also why I prefer using larger...

Yes, because .22 pellets are too easily affected by wind. And without a solid rest, if you don’t hit the head or chest, the rabbit can still run away. I had a few rabbits that took three shots — I broke their legs, hit their abdomen, and they still managed to move. I use a .30 with the power...

You absolutely must not have such a dangerous idea. Just last month, I also bought a Stoeger .22. A few days ago, I used it to shoot 11 rabbits. If I couldn’t get a headshot, the rabbit wouldn’t die from a single shot — some of them took 3 shots to go down. You can imagine how dangerous it would...

I have an Arken with a 384 resolution, but it didn’t quite meet my expectations, so I bought another one with a 640 resolution.

If you want something cheap, you can only choose Chinese products, such as Arken, also known as DNT, Sytong, or PRAD. My suggestion is that no matter which brand you choose, try to go for a resolution of at least 640, which costs around $3,000 in the U.S. The absolute minimum should be 384, but...

I also have a night vision scope, and it works best in open fields or barns where there are no obstructions. In these environments, it performs very well. However, if the grass is too tall or there are leaves and branches blocking the view, night vision becomes much less effective, making it...

In China, guns are prohibited, and even airguns are not allowed. The only legal options with some power are slingshots and compound bows. I’m not some kind of elite; I own these airguns simply because I’m in California, USA.

Thank you for your understanding. I usually shoot at 30-60 yards because, at this distance, I don’t need a rangefinder—I can estimate the range roughly and shoot without adjusting the scope, allowing for the fastest possible shot. Sometimes, when spotting a target, you have to take the shot...

Sorry, my English isn’t very good, and I made a small mistake. I originally meant to copy the translated text but ended up copying the wrong one. Right now, I only have two .30 PCP rifles and one .22 spring piston rifle. After buying the PCPs, I rarely use the springer anymore because I feel its...

Last night, I went out for a rodent hunt using my Sidewinder .30 air rifle paired with the Sytong GM06 thermal scope. The results were pretty satisfying—I managed to take down quite a few rats in the brush. One interesting challenge I faced was visibility. While the thermal scope worked...

If you are not making money from this and are only helping farm owners for free to clear out pests like rats, wild rabbits, and pigeons, then you do not need a license—only the farm owner’s permission is required.

I’ve caught them in the chicken coop too; they were stealing chicken feed.

Awesome! What caliber are you using, and what’s the weight and FPS? Looks like you hit it right in the stomach with one shot. I’ll use full-auto mode, firing three rounds at a time until the magazine is empty, turning it into a beehive.
