N/A Which of your airguns would you choose for a 60yd target for only one shot?

Imagine this scenario... you have a very shy pest, and you think he's been spending a lot of time under your storage shed. Although, you've been waiting weeks/months to have an opportunity to fix the problem - from a distance of say 60ish yards.

Which airgun would you pick up knowing you will only get one quick-ish shot to hit your target? The point being... you would need to trust this airgun to hit a small target on the very first shot after possibly sitting for days or even a couple weeks.

Thanks!

EDIT: Skunk is the animal, but please don't let that stop you from posting about your unicorn .177 that has no loss in first-shot-velocity after a month ;-). Keep in mind I'm asking about "first shot point of impact" after the airgun has been idle for a while. I want to know what airguns will reliably hit a 1.00" circle @ 60 yards on the very first shot. That's not a high standard for accuracy or group size, but - one shot after sitting > 48 hours or better yet, a week or two.

Dreamline tactical compact 25. It's the only reason I own it. Bone stock with plenty of power to shoot 1 and only 1 pellet type exactly the same all the time 43 ft lbs.

Lots of my airguns could meet the performance requirements but I'd guess that the pest under the shed is a groundhog and they're quite tuff.

Since I shoot (mostly) .22 calibers I'd grab the Panthera if I had a rested shot or my Impact for quicker shooting. Both are tuned over 45 fpe.

Truth being said, I can't be bothered wasting all kinds of time waiting around for a shot - I'd just put out a trap and be done with it.

Cheers!
