High velocity pellet guns will be very sensitive to different brand pellets, this isn't and old 10 pump Crossman... I've never tried subsonics in a semiautomatic but I wouldn't expect good things. I don't think they're all that quiet anyway. My cousin went through all the paperwork to get a silencer, built a Ruger 10/22 all in black plastic. I think it looks dumb but have to admit it shoots well and is very quiet.

I guess the pellet gun has more velocity (it is maybe 1150 fps) but not very accurate. I have a 16g semi-auto but that is probably overkill for rodents, and shells are hard to find for some reason. I should look around for a .410. --FT On 3/12/17 9:22 PM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes wrote: > .410 is perfect for dispatching all manner of rodentia. Dad has a single > barrel that is always my go-to.
