Anybody shoot an air rifle?

Looking at getting a break barrel air rifle. Wondering if any of you shoot one. Looking for a good one for shooting birds, squirrels, etc. Any suggestions?

My son has been shooting a Gamo for years and plenty of birds and squirrels have met their fate from that gun. I will have to check tonight and see which model he has.

Actually it is a Daisey Powerline. It has been a very good gun. It came with a scope but we moved that over to a .22

I have a brake barrel Rem. in .177. With the fiber optic sights it shoot very well. But with she scoop the patern sucks.
In my opion if I had to buy another brake barrel that I wonted to keep a scope on I would have bought one that did not use the barrel as the cocking arm. The hinges are just to slopy on most of them. So the patern is very inconsistent. But if you just wont to use open sights most guns are alright as long as the front and back sights are monten on the barrel.
