My first bb gun was the Red Rider. LOL! Many of here remember them well. When shooting red squirrels, if you can hit them 4,5,6 times or more, you might get one to fall.

Then I upgraded to a Daisy 880 ten pump bb/pellet gun. Now this gun is an absolute killer if you want it to be. I've killed many birds, chipmunks, squirrels, ducks, some grouse and rabbit with it. I love them. Even Walmart sells it now. It goes for around $40-$45. It shoots bb's and .177 caliber pellets. If you want accuracy, always go with the pellets.

Shoot for the head and only take shots you know you can hit. I recommend staying anywhere from 5 to 15 yards for your shots. Rabbits usually stay tucked to tight cover, so if you walk along slowly, you can often see them first and maneuver yourself for a shot. The body shot is deadly too, but they'll run and sometimes make it for cover that you'll have to dig them out of.

This 880 is about the minimum you want to use for rabbits. I recommend something a little more powerful, but then again, we're talking more money.

Good luck,
