Re: Air rifles
University of IL Army ROTC Rifle team uses the Daisy PowerLine TargetPro 953. It is obviously not a competition uber expensive CO2 rifle but they are very durable. Durable enough for the battalion to use in marksmanship training and accurate enough after zeroing to win competitions. No need to ---- around with Co2 or other compressors, single pump. Fires a .177 pellet.
From a good distance, 25 meters i think... i forget, I can put 5 shots inside the size of a dime. I own a similar ******* model at home. I can hit a squirrel/rabbit from my 2nd story window 50+ meters and will will definitely die.
Edit: Actually... it might not be the 953... we might have a discontinued version that is similar to the 953. I'll check next time I go shoot.

Re: Air rifles
I've owned pretty much every air rifle you can buy here at a store, believe me dont get anything crossman their rifles are ----.
The only rifle I liked was the Beeman, I was surprised to see how well the scope was set from the factory, the rifle was all wood and the construction of it was amazing, we are limited to 500 fps most rifles are at 495, the next rifle I want is a .22 beeman and I will upgrade it to 1000fps, nobody has to know, this will be the equivalent of a real .22
