I grew up in rural Pennsylvania, and I sure miss the days when I could simply walk out my back door and have access to literally thousands of acres of pristine forest and farm land to freely hunt open-carry. It's a real challenge down here on the border in Commiefornia to enjoy my hobby. The air is polluted with all manner of surveillance choppers (Border Patrol, San Diego Sheriff's Office, SDPD, Dept. of Homeland Security, Black Ops, you name it!) Christ, the U.S. Navy even trains its chopper aviators down here! Plus, the public land is patrolled by County Park Rangers and the local yokels. But, it's all good; ironically, it kind of adds a James Bond thrill to it all ;-)"Imold"I'd like to just get down to one rifle but living in the sticks just opens up the possibilitys of what you can do so it's hard to only have 1 airgun, it's like shotguns sure the 12 gauge would suit everything but why not have a 410 for squirrel and rabbit or 20 gauge for pheasant and grouse plus you can get slugs and they both are good for deer or the 20 is good for duck and geese but then why not get a 12 gauge for goose hunting, more bang and you can reach out a bit more and all three are good for turkey, so a person ends up with a 410,20,12 gauge in their collection maybe even a 16 gauge it's a good all around shotgun also and I wount even start with center fire rifles that's a book in it's self hahaha......
I see nothing wrong with having a well rounded collection of airguns to suit your target or hunting needs where legal, mine just happens to be a .177-.22-.25-.357-.45 and this will cover all my target and hunting needs so now I just need to get down to one of each although having a few .25s is nice for when guests come over or you have a few people in your family that like to shoot, I believe the .25 fits this bill just fine.
Its a never ending dilemma I say never ending hahaha..
