Hey Hair Bear,
Personally I'm finding the Air Rifle very handy at the moment as I have just gained access to four adjoined "hobby farms" and with the reduced noise I won't annoy any neighbors (and hopefully gain further access to their properties aswell

) but couldn't give up my powder burners. I currently own a Brno mod 5 .22 rimfire and a rossi coach 12 gauge shottie aswell as the Gamo CFX .22 Air rifle. They come in very handy during my camping/hunting trips in the state forests east of Melbourne.
I still use the BRNO occationally on smaller properties with either Long Z's (only a touch louder than the Air rifle) or Sub-sonics to great effect as the propertiy owners want the bunnies, cats and foxes eradicated completely, not just selectively hunted. The extra bullet weight of the .22 RF can give me the edge even though the majority of shots taken are under 35 mtrs. I fear that the Air rifle might not have enough punch to drop a fox thats a little shy and won't get too close.
For the record, if that .204 comes up for sale I would be interested in it.
Happy hunting,
Karve.
