Who uses one on the trap line for nest predators? I’m assuming it would need to be .22 cal. Instead of .177? Just curious how lethal they are nowadays.

One them .35 caliber about right

My gamo .22 puts a hurting on possums

I saw a crossman for around $100 that might work

A good walking stick is even cheaper than a pellet gun. Not a Walking Tall stick of paper wood, but a 1/2-3/4” stick. Sharp blow to the base of the head works well

An old retired Tee ball bat works good also.

A gamo .177 will kill a coon pretty good with a well placed shot.

Gammo Red Fire pellets turn a break barrel .177 into a far more powerful weapon. They will drop rabbits where they stand with a lung shot. They should be suitable for coons, possums, and skunks if aiming for the head.
