The Colibri 22 rounds are not designed to be used in a rifle as they sometimes won't clear the barrel. They work fine in a revolver. I use them in a K22 in my garage and have tried them in a Mossberg rifle and about 10% won't clear the barrel. There is a warning on the box not to use them in a rifle. One air rifle mfg makes a co2 powered model 94 lookalike with clips like the pistols. Can't recall the mfg, may have been German mfg. Seems they were around $280 so I didn't look further.

My favorite is a Bejamin-Sheridan .177 pellet rifle. I have had mine for about 10 years and it still works flawlessly. The only drawback to this choice is that it takes 10 pumps to get a full charge of air. On the other hand, you eventually get used to shooting accurately after having to exert some energy to get the charge. To me, this helps simulate certain hunting situations in which you may have to take an offhand or otherwise unsupported shot after crawling, climbing, etc. JMHO.

I have a Crossman CH2000 air rifle I use. It's accurate, has a fully adjustable stock and is CO2 powered. Scoping it would be easy (I use aperture sights), but it only fires pellets, not BB's so it may not be what you want (though I have never seen a truly accurate BB gun, pellets are better in that regard)

Don't know what your budget is, but go to Pyramid Air.com They have a broad selection with everything from CO2 cartridge powered to refillable pneumatic precharged(you gotta buy one kind of pump or another) many of the modern precharged pneumatics have a little clip that gives you multiple shots per clip, and many of the precharged or CO2 guns will give many many shots before needing a recharge. A little pricey typically but NICE .



Good Luck--D. http://www.pyramydair.com/
