That was what i would use a pump and one or two pumps at twenty feet i dont think it would hurt them

2 pumps shooting a Q-tip from a Sheridan HURTS…..

If you are intending to shoot stuff without killing it, fucking right you should try it on yourself first…..
I wonder how many animals are gonna be running about with festering wounds that take a couple of weeks to eventually kill them.

I’ve been shot with ‘low power’ stuff, and it penetrates just fine 😯

I’m not the one asking about them.

Always amazes me when folks use a pellet gun to run pests away. You always see the question come up about shooting deer with an airgun in the ass to ‘chase it off’. Such behavior is irresponsible at best.

I suppose a paintball marker may be good for chasing them away… perhaps these pellets you speak of are soft enough not to penetrate, I dont know. I think my original answer is best. Try and see.

I can attest that an Airsoft bb (light weight) will not do much harm from a single shot SIG handgun in clear plastic from WalMart…

I was using it to train a friends dog that was good at ignoring voice commands. To try it out I shot the palm of my hand from about an inch away…

It hurt but left nothing more than a small welt. I never actually shot the dog, even though it wouldn’t hurt him I figured shooting something beside him so he never gets hit with anything was the best practice.

Well after the first few rounds to the sheet metal of the fridge when he was rustling through the trash about five feet away the sound of the pistol cocking was enough to get him out of the trash in a hurry.

So in that case a weak air gun that is never actually pointed at the dog and the dog is never actually hit by the bb it worked wonders!!!

Now I would think that the pellet would do way more damage than a big (22 cal) plastic light weight bb… I would never shoot myself with a plastic pellet from a springer or even a pump bb gun unless I was testing the toxicity of plastic under human skin… 😕

If the plastic is hard they’ll be nearly as destructive as a lead pellet at close range, ie. in the house. They’re probably not going to shoot straight, and I wouldn’t suggest shooting yourself unless you like to bleed.

Airsoft gun will chase stuff off. Get a weak one.

Or a supersoaker. 🙂 Plus that’ll be funny.

With those pellets you will be lucky to hit an elephant at 35 yards.
You just wasted a lot of money, shot them with a springer if you have one they might group better with that.

Easy way to find out. Shoot yourself with one and see.
