I've got some potentially disposable income coming in in the next couple of months, and am interested in buying one of two things with the purpose of plinking and/or hunting small game. Small game meaning rabbit, squirrel, and the like.
I am either looking for a .22 spring or gas piston air rifle, or a rimfire rifle either .22lr, .22magnum, or .17hmr.
I already have a springer in .177 that is adequately powerful for hunting, and just needs a scope. I do not however have any variety of rimfire.
My question here is that for my purposes, should I buy a rimfire rifle, or an air rifle? The budget is about the same for either ~$200 give or take a little.
I don't need anything fancy, so action types on the rimfire are wide open. Bolt, semi, whatever.
Input welcome and appreciated.
