Is the crossman putting holes in the roof? you could try a benjamin pump. not sure if a .22 shot shell would go thru the roof.
OK, now I am confused. Above you said to stay with the Gamo style .177 above...Heavier bullet more chance of penetration. I'm going off of experience with my Sheridan which will kill a ground hog. .177 will not.
Blowgun.
Uhhh...Blowgun.
Ahhh...Try loading 2-3 pellets in your gun if possible. I used to do that for mouse hunting in the cabin so the pellets didn't have too much velocity.
That was more what I was wondering about...You might also try some of the CO2 pellet guns, they have lower velocity and some of them have clips for multiple shots (yes, clips, not magazines).
Thanks for the Links!I was suggesting something like a Gamo whisper. Cock the barrel, load the pellet, and it's ready. However, I found something cooler. Semi auto air rifle ftw. Shibumiseeker mentioned it, but I've never seen anything besides a pistol.
As far as caliber, if you aren't damaging the roof, I wouldn't worry about going to .177. If you are, then a .177 would be the better option since it's a lighter pellet.

With only one pump I am not even sure if it will propel the pellet out of the Barrel...If you are a good shot...you should only have to pump-up the 140 once. Then one dead pidgeon.
Good kittys. It's always better when the team comes together!Day 2 of the Great Undocumented Pigeon Resettlement Drive of 2011...
Day 2 was semi Productive as I attempted to Request Proper Documentaion from 2 Pigeons that chose to defy my Authority and were sent to the Great Pigeon. I noticed a third Pigeon out of the corner of my eye and attempted a rapid shoot without choosing a Proper Stance and only winged him. This was when the Barn Cats declared an Alliance with me and 2 of their ilk assisted me with the sentence on the wounded bird...
