It depends on the model and the caliber of the Pellet gun.
Is it illegal to shoot a pellet gun in the City Limits of Quincy IL>
The distance that a pellet gun can shoot is determined by the power source that the gun has. Some will shoot a few hundred feet while others with more power will shoot several hundred yards. The weight of the pellet also has an effect on the distance that it travels.
No
we have squirrels in backyard they are distroying pair trees and peacan trees ,is it loegal to shoot a squiirrel with a pellet gun?
None. Never shoot or point a pellet gun at anyone.
no. Why would you?
Massive yes!!!
For us to answer, you would have to define "better". I can target shoot at 50-100 meters with a .22 target rifle, and I can't do that with a pellet gun. But I can target shoot in my basement during bad weather with a pellet gun- and I can't do that with my .22s.
no
A pellet gun is capable of serious injury or death depending on where the victim is struck. The shooter could be charged with battery or a greater crime. Never point a pellet or BB gun at anyone.......
In the Unites States you have to be 18 to purchase a pellet or BB gun, but you can be any age to shoot it under adult supervision.
