RE: Best air rifle ????
I have a gamo stalker with a scope and love it.
I've killed a muskrat @ 50 yards and a crow @ 60 yards with head shots!
If the boy is strong enough to cock the barrel I would recommend it.

RE: Best air rifle ????
First, I'd go with a .22 caliber.
Second, don't buy something cheap
i have a cheap Gamo. Dang it's hard to shoot. I don't remember which model I have, but it's a 1000 fps spring piston wood model (.177).
It's impossible to shoot good with it. The trigger's horrible. It kicks like a mule (foreward) which that hurts accuracy.
they say air guns take a ton of shots to break in before they become more accurate, and like every gun you have to find which pelletts shoot best.
another tip, clean the barrel when it's new because there's usually some crap in the barrel.

RE: Best air rifle ????
Once again THANKS !!!
I orderedthe RWS model 34 with scope and mounts. All of the reviews I have read indicate this is a good purchase. When the gun arrives from Cabelas I can give a report on this firearm if anyone is interested.
You guys helped Me decide. I really did not want to spend 300 + bucks for an air rifle. Good thing it comes with a life time warranty.
Thanks
