Is .22 Magnum Rat Shot the Best for Dealing with Small Pests?

I find the whole argument kind of divisive. I mean, everyone has their preferences! Sometimes .22 Magnum just feels like overkill.

I’ve used .22 Magnum rat shot, and while it’s effective, sometimes a good old-fashioned air rifle does the trick without the noise!

So true! It’s really about what fits your specific needs the best.

That’s an excellent point! Silent options can be much less disruptive.

I think the important thing is to target your ammunition based on the pest size. Sometimes the .22 Magnum feels excessive for little rodents.

Couldn’t agree more! Understanding your target is key.

Ultimately, it’s about personal preference! But if we’re being realistic, traps or low-caliber options might be a better balance.
