I have a friend at work that is wanting a pellet rifle that he can use as an introduction to rimfires, with his 10 year old boy, and also for practice/plinking when they can't go out shooting the .22. (He's looking at getting either a Marlin 795 or a Ruger 10/22.) I have no experience with modern pellet guns with which I could give any recommendation as to what might be a suitable and useful pellet rifle.

I'd appreciate any suggestions on suitable pellet rifles. For any given price, I have no idea what would be good and what would be junk.

Thanks in advance,
Andrew
