I would say yes. I use a .177 at 1200fps and keep in the 30 yardish range.

I used 177 or 22, theyll both waylayy squirrels if i was gonna buy a new rifle id buy a hatsan 125 sniper 25cal. Cant beat the price or the quality. An they will exceed their fps rating and will actually be accurate and stay accurate. For a break barrel gun they are nice. The most accurate guns are gonna be your pcp's an they are pricey. OR 22 short would be my personal preference.

Pellet weight is important with a .177, what're you guys using?

I shot 2 around the house using 7.8gr Red Fires. Both less than 50', both good shots, and both got back up and ran off. Bought some 10.9gr pellets, and they started staying down.

If you don't want to buy a pellet rifle and own a .22, buy some CCI Quiet 22lr. They are running 710 fps. No difference from a pellet rifle. My neighbor's dog was getting in my garbage, his owner's garbage and owner's father's garbage, they wanted him gone. He was a 75-80 lb mutt. Well one day my neighbor comes over and his dog shows up, gets in my garbage and he says shoot him. I didn't want to kill his dog so I got my .22 with the 710 fps .22 quiets, yelled at the dog and when he ran off I lobbed one in him at 70 yards (later confirmed with range finder) it made a thump and he ran home yelping. When my neighbor got home ole Rover was on the porch DEAD! The bullet hit him in the paunch and penetrated up toward his liver, no blood at all. Lonster

Only accurate rifles are interesting.

The 22 Quiet have much more kill power than a typical 22 pellet due to 4x bullet weight and a solid projectile (more penetration) but accuracy has been sketchy in my rifles... lots of flyers. That said, the segmented HP quiets that are rare as hens teeth make excellent back yard armadillo nullifiers. Accuracy is not as important with close range footballs as your target.
