Make sure youre sighted in for the distance youre shooting. Spot just between eye and the ear. They go DRT (dead right there) Heaviest pellet you can push accurately. If youre a #^&#^&#^&#^& shooter. Just trap it instead.

It takes long enough to cock and load any pellet rifle when it comes to killing critters like groundhogs.I load the rifle and leave the breach open so that all I have to do is cock,aim and fire,still have yet to have enough time to make a kill.Heaviest pellet is actually a liability...flat shooting and accuracy is your best bet with a pellet and this is where the .20 shines above all other calibers.
Btw I taught advanced marksmanship in the military and also shot airgun field-target competitively for several years...knowing how to shoot well will never be a problem for me.And if the trap worked we would not be having conversation.
