Is it just the rifle or do you need a scope as well?
Before anyone goes to post a pic of their rifle with dead animals in the pic , Don't do it .

Yup, a lot of it comes down to budget and type of vermin unless you want an all rounder.. tell us more brother, I only hunt, nearly always with a pcp, but a nice 97k is still adequate if it’s not for rats.. weight shouldn’t make a difference unless you’re stalking.. length isn’t really an issue either unless stalking barns or woods.. as our Dr.b says, the air rifle is at its most deadly when used in ambush..
on a bog deathgrip tripod I’m happy to wait all day long in ambush with a pcp clamped pointing in the right direction while I scan my surroundings and sup coffee.. alas yes pcp is the preferred but springer is pick up n go..

You could ask one of the moderators for access to the hunting section where you’ll find plenty of helpful info 
Some are though ask @Shoto1 how many times he has moved or removed posts when some post pics outside of the hunting sectionWe’re daft! But we’re not that daft..

A regged Bsa R10 extra carbine is pretty much the same length as an unregged Ultra Clx but a lump heavier.. an Hw110 sits between those in weight and just a tad longer.. some quality rifles will do the job great, as can some budget rifles too..

Yup! Agree, but there’s plenty of hunters here too and it’s just rifle suitability and choice advice he’s looking for..✔You could ask one of the moderators for access to the hunting section where you’ll find plenty of helpful info

I’ve had an air arms s400 for years.
I put a rowan engineering mag on it for pest control and single load at the range
Absolutely faultless and not been touched since new 10 years ago

Same here, my s400 carbine has been super clinical with 60 shots per fill. Apart from cleaning the hammer rail about 6 years ago, my pre-antitamper/pre-safety s400 has been faultless. My cheap springer done the business around farmyards as well though, so it's what you need it for and budget that will sway your choice really...

Should have said mines the carbine too

I really think you can't go wrong with a Krait original. Light, accurate, plenty of power.
Just the rifle, I have a Zulus ready to go.
