I've got an even better offer.  Anyone who wants to come and have a pot at mine can have ALL of them.

Hi Lads/Ladies,
                    Happy Easter to all- I've been a bit of a rabbit marksman since I got my first rifle at 18-I'm now a good bit older and hopefully wiser and would say that headshots are the order of the day as rabbits are tough little creatures and even ammo in the hunting tip shape will probably just stick in the fur/skin and cause needless pain to the animal which is not good.For a clean kill use hunting tips (pointed rounds) and aim to put it in his ear which should do the job cleanly- lots of practice needed on small targets but should be okay from about 30mtrs max away.The rabbits around at this time of year should be this years models so young and juicy- happy hunting and be safe.

Hi Bigyin, I used to have an Anshutz .22 when I was younger  (REAL RIFLE NOT AIR-RIFLE) but bought a German brand,can't remember the name, .22 air-rifle from the gun shop just over the bridge in Amposta. The difference in stopping power between it and a standard .77 air-rifle is very noticable especially when using pointed ammo- should put down the bunnies quite effectively with a scope mounted and properly zeroed.

OK, thanks.  Know the shop you mean.  He sells a lot of Gamo (perhaps understandably being a Spanish brand, but with a good reputation.).  Please let me know if you remeber the name of your German gun.
