If its the .22 caliber pellet rifle then YES definately. At 30yrds im not sure the .177 pellets will. Live trapping is the best bet then you can shoot them from 5'.

screw the pellet guns.....you need a .22 LR, its a nice little rifle that you can kill coons, possums, etc.....

personally between my dad and I we have

.22
.223 (good for prarie dogs)
.243 (good for coyotes)
.270 (great for deer)
.308 (good for buffalo and or deer)
.45-70 (awesome for buffalo)

multiple 12 gauges
youth 20 gauge
.44 magnum pistol
.50 cal black powder

and we have a hunting lodge, lots of pheasants out here in central SoDak....we had a buffalo hunt that will be on Buckmasters next year......
