Squirrel hunting with air rifle

[TroutMcghee]

Anyone using airguns to squirrel hunt with? If so what is your recommended setup?

I use a Crossman Medallion 22 cal pump up pistol. Squirrels are small here doesn't take much. I've got an old Springer break barrel in 177 that gets used but not very much. The springer I've had for almost 60 years.

I hunt squirrels with air rifles every year. I've been playing with pcps for about 20yrs now. Fortunately now its a lot easier to get into the pcp realm. My son for Christmas just got a Umarex Notos .22cal. I put a red dot on it. Should be an awesome squirrel rifle.

Pcp air rifles are remarkably accurate and really it comes down to what kind of money you want to spend. They are by far the most accurate rifles in my safe. Air Arms S200 .22cal, Air Arms S510 .25cal, Taipan Veteran Long .25cal, and now the Umarex Notos. This being the most affordable out of the bunch. Have fun, they are addiciting.
