I had a friend come over with a break action winchester 1000X a year or so ago. It was the nicest pellet gun i've ever shot. Even had a little kick to it and you should have seen how accurate it was! If I had to buy one now i'd either go with the winchester or the Gamo varmint or Gamo Whisper Air. Either way I love the setup they have.

They cause serious problems. MAJOR problems in the area. Most places have a price on their skins. MAybe I will be able to afford one of these wonderful sounding air-rifles after the holidays.

My experience with women shooters is they are better than men once they get down the basics. Why?....no macho preconceptions.
I've shot a few dogs myself, they belonged to a local sheriff deputy. The state trapper gave me the go ahead after repeated wrnings to the deputy. Well after 17 injured sheep there were two dead rottwielers.

I won't lie. I am decent enough with a rifle, scored 34-40 in basic, and that was using plastic rounds that get blown around by the wind.
with apistol....I do kinda suck some. I need to get to the range more once I get my .45 fixed.
