N/A Which of your airguns would you choose for a 60yd target for only one shot?
- Thread starter TitanRebel
- Start date
JSAR Mini Raptor .25 cal, 75 yard zero with FX hybrid Slugs. That would be lights out all day long.

Very interesting responses! Keep um coming.
To clarify for those that say trap - this is hypothetical - so think of it as if you had one shot to try to hit a 1 inch bullseye at 60 yards, and there was no warm-up and the airgun you choose has to have been sitting idle for at least 48 hours.
To clarify for those that say "any gun" - I'm not doubting, but this is after the airgun has sat idle for at least 48 hours. So, NOT the airgun that can shoot fantastic groups at 60, but the one that can send the very first shot through the bullseye when you pick it up.
I forgot to mention that I have one already (but looking for another) - Kalibrgun Cricket II tactical 45 in .22

Connibear traps for 12 dollars work well for tunnel prone critters. Theyre kill traps and what my buddy and I use most. Shots are fun but results sometimes trump that. Also, our energy levels are enthusiast numbers. Many racoon and smaller sized animals have fallen to 15 ft lbs or less. Even a umarex notos or zelos would work fine as long as you zero your optic for first shot point of impact. Beware the dragon of power, if you chase it too long you end up with very expensive no longer back yard friendly artillery pieces. Fwiw most of my guns are zeroed for 65 yards and that's mid range for most of my airgun shooting but your mileage may vary.

Not enough info.
Shy pest as in a small rodent, or a midsize to large carnivore?
I keep my TalonP at the ready for Racoons and other predators that like to raid the chicken pen at night, but also would not hesitate to use one of my other PCPs if needed.

I can’t say the guns name because it would be extremely misleading. So I will say another gun that’s stock and every other guy that owns one will be able to do it too. Taipan vet standard .22. If that pellet doesn’t land exactly where you aimed even if the gun sat a year, you did something wrong.
