    I vote for the Brocock Pathfinder.
    I use the Brocock Ranger with my night vision.
    Not often I have to refill. I get at least 44 shots.
    Repariere nicht, was nicht kaputtist.

    Not cheap for a rat gun, would you not consider something budget like a Gamo/Walther for rats, or is that just part of it's remit?

    I've had the Pathfinder (to front heavy) and the Ranger ( low shot count) I riddled with arthritis so weright is a massive issue for me, and replaced them with a Vixen short which in .22 gaves over 150 shots per fill, its quite light ( I've lightened mine more) and beautifully built. Many people replace the alloy shround for a carbon fibre one, OR if you dont mind it getting uglier removing the shroud entirely and using a decent moderator.

    Mine currently is shroundless with a 15mm ID 17mm OD carbon fibre sleeve over the barrel. And a Eaglevisioncam M14 to 1/2 BSP silencer adaptor to mate up with a decent moderator.

    I have an AGT uragan (one) compact in. 22 and it blinds the 44 shots quoted above (if shot count matters to you)
    Light as a feather, laser accurate and not required anything since I bought it about 2 years ago, not even a single seal. Got a custom cf shroud made up for it and it's prob the quietest rifle I own.
    Defo worth a look.
