The .22 is the the most effective air gun caliber for small game up to raccoon. A quality .177 break barrel or any low end PCP in .177 will surely be capable of taking pigeon out to 80 yards. Your average pump and mid-low range break barrel in .177 is realistically a 40 yard gun. Good luck getting within 40 of a pigeon outside of city environments. The Polymag is one of the best hunting pellets out there, if your air gun likes them and can push high velocities with them. Certainly one in .25 can take all small game species in NY. They are known to prevent over-penetration on game as small as squirrels out of a .25 pushing 40 FPE. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I wouldn't use a .22 mag past 100. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Spent $3k last night while drinking with friends. All on scopes and rings. Can't resist a nice sale. Last week, spent $1500 on a Savage and ammo for it. Cabela's free shipping will do that. Also picked up a $140 auto life vest for $70, can't say I didn't make out well. Hopefully, I won't end up keeping all of it. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

60 and higher tomorrow with rain. Looks like this year's ice fishing will be a bust like last year. How was the hunt? X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

B., I use domes pellets due to their accuracy. Out of a .177, I wouldn't worry about over-penetration for pigeon, so a pointed is ok too. If close enough range, a destroyer-type works just as well. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

This ones for you B.! X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

That walmart air gun is a bit on the light side for real hunting purposes. If you are accurate with it, you only need about 7 FPE to effectively kill a squirrel. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

B., any legal air gun hunting implement will be enough to take out a rock dove in the boiler. I prefer something in the 800-900 FPS range out of a .177 I also wouldn't hesitate using my .25 on them out to 60-75 yards. Shot placement is key, as their heads and lungs are very small.

Not surprised at all with this site. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Belo, I gave my word to an admin I wouldn't rip you a new one. I'd suggest you lay off. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

You're right up there with Dave, Belo. That's all I'll comment on. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Wow. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Know the speed and energy at that 300 yard range? As phade mentioned, energy and expansion may be an issue. I don't own a ML, but have seen some of the bullets. They don't strike me as having a high BC with the stubby shape. If the bullet drops out of transonic speeds, you'll have major accuracy issues.

Must have been replying the same time as you. I'm done with the idiot. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

So whites worked their way up, and everyone else didn't? You want to talk about uneducated? Check your punctuation, punk. You're almost as horrible as Grow when it comes to punctuation and spelling. Get past first grade, then come back and talk to me about education. You are more than a concerned individual about a racist comment against whites. You lashed out against someone that made a comment that whites are taking some unfair treatment and turned it into a racial war, that was your agenda from the start. Then you go to attack said person on a personal level. Now you are showing your true colors in that you are dissatisfied with blacks and Latinos(yeh, that's how it's properly spelled). Your a punk, and won't last a second down in the "hood" as you'd call it. Check yourself! X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Label me all you want, you're a punk that talk big, but when it comes down to it, a coward that can't back any of it up. Why don't you tell us about what you really think is the problem if it isn't the white makes as you say. Grow a pair and speak your mind, punk.

For you? Why not? Recently formatted the computer, I'll have to go out and shoot some just for you. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

That'll never happen. I feed the rest to the poor fools that don't know how to pick a bone from their meat, like Belo and his back straps. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I just read through this whole thread(sorry Belo) and find it funny and sad that its perfectly OK for the white man to bash on all other ethnicities and as soon as a statement was made about how they are getting knocked down a peg or two, its all of a sudden an attack on the white man. The white man has suppressed other cultures and ethnicities for so long, and still do! If you think it doesn't happen even in this day and age, my chinky slanted eyes can see better than your blue ones. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

So if there's a lot of white guys on this site, others should just bow to their bitching? What's the percentage of white vs other ethnicities have anything to do with free speech? X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://Facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Not directed at anyone in particular, well, maybe Dave. My parents never bitched and whined about what they had to endure. Neither did we when we grew up in similar situations as Elmo, because we knew and appreciated what our parents gave up for us. If for a second you think they could have moved and didn't for the safety if their own children, then you must be delirious. I'll stick to my guns, and state that most white folk in this country don't know how good they have it. They are generally the first to bitch and moan when they don't get their way. I don't wish ill on any particular race, as I've often been a victim of racial violence and discrimination, but shut the F up already.
