Pellet Rifle Hunting -- Gun and Ammo Guide

If you find attractive hunting with a pellet rifle, there are a few guidelines to follow to make sure you do it effectively and humanely. Choosing the right rifle, rounds, scope, and using guidelines are all critical indicators. However, the first consideration is what game you should and may not hunt with a pellet rifle. This article is intended as a quick guide to hunting with an air rifle.

The game

First and foremost, understand that only small game should be sought when pellet rifle hunting. Even the most powerful air guns do not provide enough dangerous force to ensure clean eliminates when hunting larger animals. Stick to small unwanted infestations (field these animals, squirrels, rats). Nothing larger than an average-sized raccoon should be shot with a pellet rifle, and then only when the space is in a fashion that accuracy is assured and with the proper good quality rifle and ammo.

Pellet Rifle & Rounds Choices

In general,. 1 good quality guns and pellets are preferable when hunting small game with a pellet rifle. A common disbelief is that the smaller good quality guns (. 177 and. 20) produce higher pellet velocities and are therefore better for hunting. Actually, it's more about internal damage force than leak force. In other words, you want to strike youngster with a projectile that will disperse more killing force after impact. That means using the heavier and thicker. 1 good quality. The smaller calibers risk passing through the animal without causing sufficient internal damage to kill it cleanly (or at all).

This is not to say you should not use a. 177 or. 20 good quality pellet rifle for hunting. If your target is very close and you can easily take a head shot, any good quality will work as well as another. But this is not the case when hunting small game.

Muzzle Velocity

With pellet guns, speed is measured in feet per second (fps) and listed as muzzle velocity. When hunting small game with a. 177 good quality air rifle, it's best to use one that produces at least 1, 000 fps muzzle velocity. large rifle primers This high speed, coupled with heavier worthless point pellets, gives you the best chance to make a clean kill every time you hit your target.

However, if you make a poor pellet choice, this higher muzzle velocity can actually work against you. For example, sharp pellets are a bad idea when hunting with air guns, especially at close range. Absent a head shot, you run a real risk of having the pellet pass cleanly through the animal without inflicting mortal damage. It's inhumane to merely maim, after all. Always use the best rounds for the purpose at hand to see that the job gets done quickly and thoroughly.

Scopes

If your game will be up in the bushes or further out than about 15 metres, using a scope on your pellet rifle is a smart idea. Most pellet pistols have scope supports included that a wide variety of scopes will fit into easily. Once you know your unique gun's tendencies at various miles, a scope can certainly help you hit game exactly where you want the pellet to strike.
