Which is better for hunting between Phantom 1000X and the Tac 77 Elite?

and between these two not other companiesWhich is better for hunting between Phantom 1000X and the Tac 77 Elite?
Honestly I don't see much difference between the two. The Tac77 looks a lot like a slightly more expensive Phantom that's been given a bunch of ';tactical'; accessories to make it look cool. I think CF45 hit the basics on both of these guns. That being that they're going to deliver around 13 ft-lbs of muzzle energy (850 fps with 8 grain pellets), be reasonably accurate (1-1.5 inch groups out to 30-35 yards), and somewhat durable (though after several thousand rounds the mainsprings will start to fatigue). That being said, I think the Phantom looks like a better deal since its less expensive and since its setup more like a traditional hunting rifle with iron sights (and depending on the version you get a scope) and isn't encumbered with a bunch of tactical accessories (like the laser sight) which may not be legal for hunting.Which is better for hunting between Phantom 1000X and the Tac 77 Elite?
The Crosman Phantom 1000x is reasonable powerful* and reasonable accurate, but just like all of the chinese built Crosman springers they are not well made or durable.





*around 850fps with 7.9gr pellets(12.7fpe)





If you use a good domed lead hunting pellet and can make the shot(head) you will be able to take small game(rabbit, squirrel, etc) out to around 30-35 yards.





The Phantom 1000X at $110 is a better deal than the Tac 77 at $195 IMO.

Among other small game on this hunt, he takes a jackrabbit at 44 yards with one shot to the head. %26gt;an example of what an accurate air rifle can do in the right hands.
Crosman. also, single pump is nice from what i remember of my youth. stick to squirrel and dont kill just for the hell of it.





this isnt going to do a good job on anything the size of a rabbit.
