I never owned an air rifle & only shot one a couple of times when I was a kid. I bought the model 48 in .177 four or five years ago to shoot ground squirrels around here. They are numerous and I really, really dislike them. I don't have a scope & just use the iron sights. After I zeroed it in I got 9 of the little bastids on the first day of use. Since then the population has gotten down to three or four I see once in a while. If they hang around for a minute or two, they're gone if they're within less than about 125 ft. or so. I really like the rifle & it does exactly what I wanted it to. My next victim is going to be that damn bird that keeps attacking the mirror on my truck.
