Well, I had to drive a friend up to Atlanta the other day
and discovered a new Bass Pro Shop. On the way back home
I had to stop and take a quick peak inside to see what they
carried.

I stumbled upon a large selection of air rifles. Some .22 most
were .177 and around 1,200 fts. They were priced around the
$300 mark so, I am sure they are much more than the pellet
guns I remember of my youth.

For some strange reason I really want to get one of these for
cheap plinking purposes. Is this crazy? or should I just spend
my money on a good .22 rimfire?
