Crosman 1322 Medalist

[Loki_762]

I have had my Crosman 1322 for about 6-8 years, and it is an accurate, fun to shoot little gun.  Last year, we moved into a new house, and the surrounding area is loaded with rabbits.  As we plant our garden, I can't help but think that there will most likely be a time or two when I will find the little thieves in my garden, and I will want to dispatch (shoot) them as humanely as possible.  Will the Crosman have enough killing power to do the job cleanly?  It is spitting out the 15.4 grain domed Gamo pellets somewhere between 450 and 500 fps, I am guessing.  Is this gun going to be sufficient, or should I look to upgrade to something with more power?  If I were going to sell this to finance something with more oomph, what would be a fair asking price for a gun in good to excellent condition?
Thanks,
Loki

silly question- Ari rifle-- There is always a need for speed. upgrade just for the fun of it. Joking aside, you gun should be sufficient. just make sure of your distance and gain confidence that you can hit a 2 inch  target . thump that old rabbit on the head and it will go down . painless and humane .  good luck on your pest eliminating project--luck dog.

[S.S.]

A rabbit is probably one of the easiest small game animals to kill.
My childhood slingshot was deadly on them...
But I was using a marble as a projectile also. I personally would opt for a bit more power out of an air rifle. Or practice to the point
that you can take "Eye Shots" instead of head shots. your gun will probably kill them but not before flopping about for a while.
