    Pest control semis all the way less escapees, stay on target for follow up shot, at least 30% +++ more effective using semis. Personally prefer bolt gun for target plinking Or teaching kids

    I think you pretty much covered it. Also probably with some of the more available clip mag models, the mag capacity was a bit more although now anything more than 10 shots is now evil, that is out...
