A variable power rifle would solve the problem. Pity there isn't a dual power springer. Look at the HW45 - so why can't they do the same with a rifle? I'd be interested...

"corners should be round" Theo Evo .22/.177 - Meopta 6x42, DS huntsman classic .20 vortex razor LH 3-15x42 under supervised boingrati tuning by Tony L & Tinbum, HW77 forest green - Nikon prostaff 2-7x32 plex.
Although its frowned upon a recoilless PCP or co2 .22 pistol with a red dot or laser will work very well at below 10 yds.
mk2 rapid.22
Pistol, no.
But a 2240 Ratbuster, once fitted with the shoulder stock (for stability) and steel breech can be most excellent. Or the 2250 Ratcatcher series rifles with reduced power (very quick and easy).
Not multishot, though (although expensive multishot breech and magazine systems can be had - but then you'll be well and truly into PCP price territory).
The beauty of the Ratty is that they're very cheap and cheerful and happily fill that "knock about gun" role. Especially if you get a pre-owned 2240 (maybe £50 to £60) and then add the shoulder stock.
