Hello,
I am thinking of buying a BSA Lightning in .22 and I will use it for pigeon hunting. It's muzzle velocity is about 700 fps, and it has 19.5 ft.lb of energy. Nothing to write home about, but I like using spring/gas ram rifles. Do you think I could kill a pigeon at 60-70 yards with it (if I hit it, of course)?
MOD EDIT: MOVED TO HUNTING SECTION
