Thread: which air rifle

My son has a Sharp Innova in 177 & 22.
Pump up (not spring) so you can vary pressure depending on range of shot. As quiet as my suppressed rimfire.
Super accurate, head shoot pigeons easily. 22 has more hit than the 177, but both kill birds.
They don't make them new anymore but Youngs Air Gun Centre have them second hand every now and then for around $150 which is pretty good (I bought the 22 for about that 30 years ago). The guy there rates them very highly, particularly the barrel.

+1 on that. I had one as a kid in .22 and was very sad the day the house burnt down and it got melted.
