    new member

    hello to all,

    just got my first air rifle (hw95 .177) with the sole intention to do deal with a rat problem - rats have been terminated. now i just cant seem to put the rifle down. i have rabbits in the field behind my house was thinking of trying to bag one. is it ok to use .177 for rabbits?

    also, could some one tell me about maintaining the rifle - oiling, cleaning, how often and best products to use.

    lastly what is dieseling? and do new air rifles diesel?

    look forward to hearing from you.

    thanks


    regards
