Your not in English class, and don’t need to be either, ignore the stupid derp derp spelling comment. You’ll find lots of great help here to help you make your decision, most folks are more than willing to help a airgun brother or sister. You might want to look at the DAR .177, they are under $300 and a member here(Shambozzie) just got one he really likes. PCP is probably where you want to start if you want to shoot long distance. Not that some springer guns wouldn’t work. I have a fusion in my neck and it makes cocking break barrels difficult. Good luck with your search and with the starlings!
