Wondering how many pcp airgun shooters are in central Illinois

I have several as well in different calibers. I have just started trying out slugs in a couple of them. My .30 cal has a 700 mm barrel and seems to be the one that shoots them the best so far. I have not taken any of my guns out squirrel hunting yet but it is something I have looked into. I just called and talked to the IDNR and the officer I talked to said he did not know when or if Illinois will allow Airguns to hunt deer.
 
It’s usually windy where I live but I have a buddy that has a 170’ shed I can shoot out of. I put a a small heater under my shooting bench and can shoot out to 150 yards out of the back door. With no wind in the shed and a heater it’s nice to get some range time in the winter. He raises organic chickens and has a starling problem eating the chicken feed. So luckily I get some live target action as well.
