I finally hit the fucking groundhog that was eating my garden with a .177 airgun pellet but the fucker still ran away. Will it die of lead poisoning or blood loss or something?

Lol no. Blood loss maybe if you hit him just right in the head. Groundhogs are tough as shit and without great shot placement you’re not going to take him down. I would recommend something like a .17 hmr. Great round for fucking up small nuisance animals like coons, opossums and groundhogs

Can't fire any of my guns on my property, I was just outside plinking and saw the bastard so I took the shot

Doubtful
Gotta git them right in the head with a little 177 airgun

.22 magnum suppressed might as well be an airgun. .300 memeout is also pretty damn quiet.

The only way you're going to kill a groundhog with a 17 cal pellet gun is with repeated shots at close range. They are tough animals that spend their lives digging burrows which makes them hella strong. I've had clean hits with a 22 lr not even slow them down. I've impaled them with a pitchfork and had to finish them with a shovel. I've seen them win against a catahoula-pit bull mix. 17 hmr or 22 mag are the minimum to kill those mean bastards reliably. They're basically badgers and I don't mean those gay European ones.

wut
even .22lr subs arent close to a .17 pellet
William Carter
.22lr cb rounds buddy,
quiet as shit, 700fps and way more lethal than any airshit
killed me a troublesome tomcat one night in the middle of a neighborhood with liberals and no-one was the wiser

I highly recommend aguila colibris. Theyre silent out of a long barrel and out of a pistol it sounds like a cap gun. They were 7cpr without shipping, anything else similar was atleast 20cpr. 20gr ~500 fps btw
Brandon Jenkins
what's that drawing on the bottom right?

>for hogs
you could shoot 30 rounds of that into a groundhog and it would just walk away

A design for a tiny house. I'm not an architect I'm a med student so it sucks complete shit.

You need more that a pellet gun.
When I was a kid there was on old man (neighbor) who used to sit on his back porch with a single shot 375 H&H and annihilate groundhogs that snuck into his garden.
CRACKBOOM!
Us kids loved it.
Wyatt Price
I didn't mean to imply it was for hogs. Its just a really quiet cartridge. Whats the average grain and projectile speed for .17 or .22 air guns?
Grayson Evans
Build a .30 cal Marauder pistol
Or just buy a .25 off amazon

What a legend

Sure it is

muh noiga

Depends where you hit it.
.177 is too weak for anything bigger than squirrels. I shot a raccoon between the shoulder blades and he was back on my bird feeder 20 minutes later.
Connor Kelly
no guns confirmed

I have solution.

Related question to OP's. Would a 22 pellet rifle kill a freaking groundhog with a headshot at about 25 yards?
Nathan Howard
Yes.
Connor Ross
probably
Jace Adams
This is true, but a 22 colibri would be pretty good. Hardly noticeable.
Oliver Davis
Something like a Benjamin, yes.
