You want a rifle that goes at least 700 FPS. Crosman and Daisy both make pneumatic (pump) guns that are fairly accurate and reasonably priced. I also recommend a steel barrel, for wear resistance. For game, use only the hard, pointed hunting pellets, not the flat ones. Pellets have marginal power for game like hares, so always use the highest power level recommended by the manufacturer and aim carefully.
