[QUOTE="Brother Buckwheat, post: 1658981, member: 76005"] I agree .22 is all that is needed for rabbit at 40+ yards. And .177 will work just fine. But in my experience the larger the caliber of pellet the better the anchoring of your target. Of course the larger the bore the more decibels you get. It's a trade-off and .22 seems to be the best in terms of quietness and knockdown power. And most barrels are pellet picky, but usually, a JSB will work in most barrels. For most, a springer is hold sensitive, I myself have never been able to shoot a springer accurately. IMO, just cry once and get a decent PCP with a big 70 or 90 Cu.Ft. tank. And no, airgun suppressors do not have to be permanently affixed to the barrel, I have a Sumatra .25 and a W.A.R. .30 with removable suppressors.Though a fully shrouded barrel seems much quieter and makes for a more compact profile.
