There are literally dozens of air rifles (Not Guns) to hunt squirrel's. However I suggest that you use a Pellet rifle not a BB rifle. You should be able to find hollow-point pellets for hunting. These are designed to kill quickly. BB's are a poor choice for hunting. BB's make the squirrel suffer because the BB doesn't deform when it hits the target. hollow-point pellets do. Look for any pellet rifle that shoots between 800 and 1200 feet per second. Personally I select the rifles that shoot .22 caliber pellets over .177 pellets. The bigger .22 pellet is slower but has more knock down power.
