I won an auction for a Beeman .177 Wolverine air rifle. Oh my goodness that thing is FUN!!!! The website is Gunbroker.com, and they have all kinds of "toys" and stuff, it is yet another great way to waste time on the computer, LOL!
It came with a scope but I haven't even put the scope on it yet. Frank and I did some plinking with it just using the iron sights. Anyway after some fiddling with the sights, I popped a bunny and hit him right between the shoulder blades. He turned a complete flip and landed in a pile.
I think I am addicted to Bunny Flipping! ;D

I bought the air rifle for popping back yard varmints, the report is quieter than a .22 CB short. It has these nice iron sights on it but it came with a scope, I just have to get around to mounting it. Then I am going to deal with 3 coons back in the woods before they can come up in the yard and eat goose eggs. I got these hunting .177 pellets that are designed to expand, that is what did the rabbit. Love my air rifle!
