Pellet guns? What do you guys think?
I saw the other thread about AirSoft guns. I liked airsoft guns for a while but now I am interested in a pellet gun for some backyard plinking/fun.
I know that they are dangerous, since they can range from 300 fps to 1300 fps. But what do you guys think of pellet guns? Any favorite models? Best pellets to use?
I find pellet guns perfectly fine as long as you be a retard with them (Same as for airsoft) i myself had pellet guns way before i had airsoft guns.

Pellet guns, you say. Fun target practice, though they're more dangerous than airsoft guns, so you should probably don some safety goggles. Unless you're willing to risk losing an eye to a ricochet. =P

As for the model... Well, can't name any, really. But i'm more of a rifle guy than a pistol guy. Rifles typically have better aim and more power.

I totally agree with that. I like target shooting, but I know some people who hunt with pellet guns. I wouldn't mind using a pellet gun as pet control, but hunting with it would be a little weird.
I wouldn't call them goggles, more like glasses.
But I would rather break a pair of clear safety glasses than a nice pair of shades.
pellet guns are usually more powerful than airsoft guns, just act retarded with them as predator said, cuz they can hurt quite a bit if u get shot in the right place (learned from experience)

Of course they are more powerful, they shoot metal pellets, and most of them use some sort of HPA or co2. Also, it will hurt anywhere if you shot by a pellet gun, and it would probably go through your skin. How in the hell did you get shot with a pellet gun?

well a couple years ago, my friend shot me through the covers when i was sleeping over at his house as a prank, THROUGH THE COVERS, not direct contact, which would suck
