Joe9 3 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hi guys, had one of my permissions call me up today asking if I'd take care of a few Canadian geese on one of his fishing lakes. I'm mainly a vermin hunter myself so only use my .22 air rifle, would this be sufficient for hunting geese?? Thanks guys Joe9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stoggy 598 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 You really need something a bit more powerful than an air rifle. Do you know anyone with a shotgun as it would be more suitable for the job. They can be tough old birds to kill and i would not want to attempt it with an air rifle. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
