Back when my 78 deluxe was operational I used to take squirrels and chipmunks inside of 12 yards with mine.

I've taken plenty of starlings and a some pigeons with my MM tuned .177 cal QB 78-D. I also have one in .22 cal,,, also tuned by MM and it's a fine hunter. Using Predator pellet I have taken nutters with it and even whacked a couple of g-hogs. The g-hogs were close range, within 20 yards. It's a fine hunting rig if the weather cooperates.

If it was easy it wouldn't be hunting it would be shopping.

My QB wouldn't kill a starling let alone a tree-rat at 30yr until i rebuilt the probe (after i broke it) and added a screw in the spring chamber to increase the strikers force. Now they drop like pest.

Mines a 78D in 22 and it loves predators and super h points.I can cover 5 shot groups with a dime @ 40yds.I've killed 127 grackles and 45 starlings since April and I cant wait to take it squirrel hunting this weekend.
