[Crockrugerarms]

All of them.

Oh boy, you opened a can of worms with this one. Lol



first let’s get an idea of what kind of hunting you’re looking to do and where?

 

[Peskådot671]

In all seriousness, list what you plan to hunt and everyone will give you recommendations on what caliber would be suitable. Also list your budget so folks here can recommend the brands and models that fit within your price range. Asking "What's the best?" is such a general term and is so subjective. You need to be a little more specific to get the feedback you want.

Under 100 yds, Light , short, accurate!

One 100 yds, the criteria is too diverse for me to have any idea!

I'm shopping for that today. I put out 200 yd targets last might. If my gen 1 Impact won't do it, I'm getting serious.

Might help us make suggestions if we know what you are hunting, and where. Looks like you are here in Texas? We have a 215ftlb/35 cal airgun restriction on game and fur bearers. Private lands are different. I hunt with a .457 for hogs all the way down to .177 for the squirrels and rats.

Specific recommendations are gonna depend on exactly what you're shooting, but here's a very broad generalization of what I think you should look for in your gun.

Under 75 yards - Short, easy to maneuver, well built

75-100 yards - More emphasis on accuracy and having pellets/slugs that can retain their energy, light weight may or may not still be important for you depending on how you're hunting.

100+ yards - High accuracy and high ballistic coefficient projectiles

Hunting what, where, at what distances, what caliber, what budget, bullpup or traditional, Springer or pcp, etc.,etc, etc.!!!. Too many open ended questions to give you an answer specific to your needs! Do some research on your own & then narrow it down by asking here!

Well well, .....tell us what you plan to hunt ( Airguns will have you covered from fly to Bison )

Tell us what terrain you planning to hunt, tell us if mainly is a sit down hunt or you planning to put miles on your booth.

But most of all tell us what kind of money you planning to spend, that is where the major difference in suggestions will be.

Your hunting style will also affect what kind of gun you purchase. For example, do you want something you can throw under the seat of your truck, or fit in a backpack? 

 

[boscoebrea]

You have to help those that want to help you by not asking an open end question.

You may have noticed there are many different types of air guns and also calibers.

A hunting rifle is a tool as as such you need the right tool for the job,so what is the job you as a hunter what to accomplish?

I will take a guess ,a.25 cal.at 900fps and accurate out to 75yds., which leaves you with a PCP.The price range would be from say$600 to $3000;

 

[gvlasak]

What kind of ammo work best for hunting? Do they make anything that expands, particularly well?

 

[harrymoreland]

Just get a Huben K1 and be done with it.

Good luck.

I think the OP should offer a bit more information. Otherwise, while well intended, this is all wasted effort.

 

[john8]

I agree with Harry, can't beat a K1. It will cover any hunting application you'll 





















































I agree with Harry. It's infinitely adjustable, It'll cover any hunting you would run across.

upgrading your 1st generation impact would be the cheapest and best thing to do , it would be an equalls an m3 even better !

600mm heavy linear .22 , carbon sleeve , human air v3 transfair port with the huma air regulator , new power plenum and thats it u will be amaized with less than 1MOA groups at 100 yard , with heavy slugs like zan 32grains u could hunt even a small pig.

 

[slugshooter]

An accurate one.

Without knowing what the hell you plan to hunt it's impossible to answer that. I'm sure plenty on here will have plenty of suggestions regardless.

This is the best airgun for hunting-
