Try the Canadian Airgun Forum. They have lots of recommendations but for me Crossman makes junk for rifles.Get a RWS[Diana] and have some German quality.Specialty Shooting Sports has RWS 34/.22 of sale for $225.I got one for my son for Christmas.He killed two porcupines and a Snowshoe Hare with it since getting it.Buy your gun in.22 cal as they hit harder.Power can be upped with a new custom spring if needed...............Harold
