Hey guys I’m new to the air gun world have a couple of good guns already but now am looking for a solid gun for coyotes down to opossums I’m a hunter not competition I’ve looked at American air arms evol .30 ,agt Vulcan .30 ,and western air rattler .30 any input they’re all expensive would like to make the right choice
Airgun Technologies .30 caliber guns

Personally, and I know this isn't a .30, and also not on your list. In .357. I'd get this. https://www.pitbullairguns.com/product-page/pitbull-carbine

i struggled for a couple years trying to decide and this year pulled the trigger on the American air arms evol .30 : )
Was it worth it pan? Been around only a few years but I have never seen a negative based thread on the evol. That says a lot in itself.

Great I’m leaning that way Vulcan has a lot of good write up’s as well and a bit cheaper but like the American made small company part

.30 Vulcan would do just fine. Evol would as well. The
.25 Uragán 2 can get all that done with ease tuned for 80 FPE with slugs. A .30 Uragán or Vulcan could as well. An Evol could with pellets.

Vulcan and Uragan shots pellets and slugs perfectly. Both with 700 mm barrel are super choices.
Western Sidewinder is a semi auto and super accurate. Just for pellets.
I am about to recive a Wolverine HP .30 Cal non regulated. In few day I will be able to tell my opinion.
I have never had in my hands an Evol. Apparently is very good rifle, but some report leaks.
A FX Panthera Compact Hunter with an small bottle in the rear and a big one in the front in .30 Cal should be a very attractive alternative also. I have one in .25 and I like it. But is just for pellets.
JSB Hades in .30 Cal are super projectiles for coyotes. Confirmed and reconfirmed!! I also already took a white tailed deer and a wild turkey with those pellets.

B,
Welcome, nice to have another Floridian aboard. Picked these up from Krale (Netherlands) late 2022/early 2023, .30 (700mm) paid little over $2600 to-my-door for the pair, less scopes. Uragan 2 just returned from warranty replacement of "balanced" valve, shoots smoother and quieter than Vulcan 3. Both accurate with JSB 44.75s, 96 FPE out-of-the-box, good with slugs, as I'm told. WM

Thanks for the info in Florida couldn’t use those for deer because of shot capacity but other trips yes was it a double lung shot

You can't go wrong buying from Derrick @zx10wall.....He will tune it up and have it ready for you...Derrick is a great and honest person. I'm pretty sure Derrick shot a 30 Cricket in the 100 yard finals and did pretty good.
Tom's EVOL are great also.
Both guys stand behind their work so it basically comes down to how much money you want to spend.
