I'm looking to put myself together a little close range varmit elimination package in the form of what I would imagine to be a .22 caliber rifle. Requirements are that it be just powerful enough to kill squirrel and rabbits with a well placed shot, accurate to within a quarter's diameter at 100 yards (I'd prefer some type of adjustable scope) and quiet (suppressed?)(Edit: Should have measured this out before posting, but I'm actually looking at a distance of 40-50 yards, not 100). Even though most .22 rifles are relatively quiet I believe the sound would still stir the neighbors a bit, and I'd like to try to avoid that.
So I've come here for help. For now I just need advice on what type of .22 and scope to look for. It need not be anything fancy or expensive, just good enough to get the job done. Just looking further into the suppressor issue now but it would need to be capable of having a suppressor mounted later when all the paperwork is done and it finally arrives. Anyone have a suggestion for a good model .22 rifle and scope I should look for?
I'm all ears. Thanks.
