I would if doing the traditional Lamping from truck at speed. It was effective in the past and still is.

Lamping was either done with shotgun or .22LR. The former the vehicle rarely stopped, the latter it does for the shot with rifle. Rabbit natural flight distance is at best 35m over areas that are not shot over too often. On heavily shot over land it can be as high as 65m, or any vehicle with a light entering a field. Sure some rabbits will stick and try to hide, but more heavily shot over the land less if any do. Some has to do with conditions on the night.
Those distances make the .22LR or .17 HMR the rifles of choice. Air Rifles with their need for pin point pellet placement aren't the right tool really.

Which brings us back to Night Vision. For Rat and Rabbit then the Digital Systems, with some basic field craft, have the quarry in range for Air Rifles.
The Pard 008LRF dedicated unit can locate, can range find precisely, and gives a good sight picture. All things that are necessary for successful and humane hunting with an Air Rifle. They work for .22LR, .17HMR, and fullbore too. The technology is real progress, and highly effective.
Best bit is the investment isn't that huge unless entering Thermal territory which is another game changer too.

Less expensive NV Digital units are available and pretty great, if a few less features. Those without a Range Finder then its best to know your ground and ranges as at night range-finding is even more difficult than in day.
Plenty of information out there to what is good and what isn't quite so groovy. The Pards have set the standards and what the competition is compared to. What is best this week gets a lot of debate, though most of the better stuff released over the last few years is all pretty useful. There has been a lot sold, so second hand gives a good saving, but stick to the better known performers as there are a few not so great also runs out there. The better kit, old or new, is very good.
