If your going to shoot a rifle inside the city, in your back yard, you need to consider how much damage it can do. A 0.177 shooting at 600FPS is plenty accurate and has more than enough power to kill any pests in your yard without much risk of killing the neighbor. 900FPS and 1200 FPS 0.22 cal air guns shoot at nearly the same velocity as a regular 22 gun and can be very lethal at long range, not a good choice for a back yard gun. I chose the one that I did because it has the same heft as an M1A, is quiet, and I can practice every day of the week at home for almost nothing. The one I chose also dosen't overwork your arm, cocking it. I can also use it indoors if necessary.
For really big pests I use my 45-70, but it tends to upset the neighbors when it breaks all their windows.
