I would still shoot them far more because now I only have about 20 yards max. _________________ "I never set out to be wierd, it was always everyone else who called me it" -Frank Zappa Speed is impressive, accuracy is deadly.

If you manage to hit a gas pocket then a springer would work. A CO2 powered gun would also work if you were in direct sunlight which would heat it. EDIT: on second thought... the CO2 might boil off anyway due to the pressure when you release it. _________________ "I never set out to be wierd, it was always everyone else who called me it" -Frank Zappa Speed is impressive, accuracy is deadly.
