I have been searching, swearing, watching videos, thinking, over thinking and then thinking some more.
I have a Gamo springer, but after trying several pellets, cannot find any real accuracy. Now, you wonderful people (serious, you guys rock), well you have me thinking higher power .22 or better for shooting about anything from Racoons on down.
So, this leaves me with a lot of options and questions. I want something ready out of the box with a scope which will hold up. The scope that came with my Gamo really sucked, I of course want accuracy and on top of that, some distance ability for targets that just won't come close. Obviously, with distance I still want the punch to make the kill humane.
I have about $500 to spend after Christmas, but would obviously be very happy spending less. I know you get what you pay for. Also, I am not particular to spring or compressed air.
Thanks everyone.
