New Airgun & Scope

[lgprashanth]

Hello There,
Iam from Bangloare, India. Iam planning to buy a good airgun. The purpose is pest control/ casual plinking. Suggest me an airgun that would serve my purpose.

And, pls do suggest me a good Scope for the airgun. Dont worry about the budget, I will pay a good price for a good gun and a Scope.

Where can I get such airgun and Scope in Bangalore?

Regards,
LG Prashanth

Welcome aboard Prashanth. Fellow Bangalorean here. Are you looking for an Indian airgun or an imported airgun? Please clarify on this so people will be better placed to answer your queries. Also, a price range would be good for people to give you better info.

i would suggest you to go for a gamo hunter .177 it shoots at 1600 fps..which is great

I think its max velocity is 1200 fps... ??

From his post, i deduce that Prashanth is new to shooting sports...Is it safe to recommend a Magnum Air Rifle for plinking & pest control, if he happens to be a novice?

If you are a beginner, please start small with a cheaper, local product(just to get the proper feel) and then upgrade your rifle as you start getting good at shooting. Apologies if you are not a shooting novice.

There hasn't been an air rifle made,
that can sling pellets at that velocity uptill date.
