by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

Im wanting a pellet gun that is cheap yet reliable. Im mostly just backyard (forest) squirrel hunting. I would like it to be under 50 or 60 dollars, and hopefully with some help in vision (scope or red sight). I dont care that its really cheap, but want one to use for whenever. I dont want to hear ebay, amazon, flea market, or pawn shop. But I would really like to know the name of a gun that matches this description.

  1. My brother does the same thing....hunting for squirrels. He uses a .177 Caliber. Its a Crosman model 760 and 66 series. I'm pretty sure that it was from Target and it wasn't too expensive.

    Good Luck Hunting!


  2. Walmart usually stocks a number of guns that meet those criteria. I'll recommend you look at 3. The best in your price range (or slightly above) is probably the Crossman 2100 /Remington Airmaster 77. Everything I've seen says its a good solid gun with a muzzle velocity capable of taking squirrels out to 20 yards or so. Next up would be the Crossman 664. Its not quite as powerful and its a bit lighter, but it should be mechanically fine and quite accurate (if they're still made to the standard I remember my old Crossman 664 being). In last place, I'd put the Daisy 880. It works reasonably well, and it delivers a muzzle velocity in the 650 fps range. But I haven't been exactly impressed with the quality of the one I recently bought for plinking.

  3. what about gointo walmart and looking for a crossman series theyre usually under 60$

  4. >>Best pellet gun, under $60, for small game hunting<<

    There are a couple of multi-pump pneumatics within your price range, that will also hunt small game.

    Daisy 880

    Crosman 2100

    Wal-Mart carries both Daisy & Crosman air rifles

    With pellets you can hunt small game at close range(30-45ft) with either.
