Jonjon79 13,358 Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 The Rapid will be easier for hunting. You'll have more shots to hand and, you'll be able to take longer accurate shots than with the 97. 1 Quote Link to post

digdeeper 278 Posted December 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Including silencer it's 28" are there any specific pellets these guns like ? I have some logun pellets with it and shoots them just nice wondered as it's 21ftlb will it deform other pellets thanks again Quote Link to post
Rez 4,961 Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Magnums mate. Assuming it's .22. Maybe see what fields can do... but I think that's up at the limit of the pellet. I think they're ok around 15-20 so 22 might be pushing it. Got any pics? Of the rifle not the pellet Quote Link to post
donnyc 1,203 Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Air arms good for up to 40FTLBS Run it with some 16gr AA 1 Quote Link to post
