I have had a Love affair with Air guns most of My life. The .20 caliber Sheridan I bought for $37.00 when I was fourteen is still shooting well. during covid I got a RWS 350 Mag in .22 caliber . the .177 are too small for My hands and I would surely need a pellet pen. I shoot mostly Crossman .22 pellets in it but have bought H&N pellets as well. for some fun I recommend the H&N pellet assortment to try different pellets. https://www.pyramydair.com/product/h-n- ... 5ct?p=1495

This dog has gone absolutely squirrel crazy! All he wants to do is hunt squirrels.

You will never be without some form of entertainment when you have a terrier.
Mine hunted everything from mice to bears! Yes he treed a bear once, for 4 hours he chewed on that oak tree barking, snarling until he was hoarse!

Something I've not seen discussed yet is trigger improvement. YouTube (of course) has a video of putting a small ball bearing in the trigger assembly to improve things quite a bit. I did it and I was very impressed.

I’m happy with the trigger and cannot imagine how it could be improved.
