Recc. for airgun   
We are plagued by rabbits around our village, and whilst I have a .22 and
silencer, this is overkill for baby rabbits in close proximity to houses,
playfields and bunny huggers. (I have been asked by the Parish council to
reduce them as much as I can.

I am looking for a QUIET, effective air rifle which can knock these little
'uns over without fail up to 25-30 yds. I am not lookng to pay a fortune.

Any suggestions?

J.

as you obviously have a FAC then I'd look at a FAC air rifle. A friend 
has a BSA superten - very effective up to 50+ yards and totally quiet 
(with the silencer). I've shot rabbits with it and ones less that 5 
yards away never even moved - until i shot them also......
