  • Varmint rifle is an American English term for a small-caliber precision firearm or high-powered airgun primarily used for both varmint hunting (the elimination of outdoor animals which harass properties) and pest control (the eradication of indoor infestation by destructive species). These tasks include killing three types of pests or nuisance animals that spread diseases or destroy crops or livestock: * Small/medium-sized non-game animals such as crows, ground squirrels, jackrabbits, nutria, marmots, groundhogs, porcupines, opossums, skunks and weasels; * Non-native feral/invasive species such as starlings, cats, dogs, goats, wild boar/pigs and donkeys; * Animals considered to be nuisance vermin destructive to man-made properties and vegetation, crops and domestic livestocks, such as rats, house sparrows, gophers, and small predators such as coyotes and jackals. Varmint guns fill a design gap between the more powerful big game rifles and the less powerful rimfire firearms. Big game rifles are more suitable for stalking and taking down individual large-sized animals such as reindeer, elk and buffalo at medium ranges, but not adequate for frequent repeated firing. Rimfire firearms (such as the highly popular .22 LR caliber) are best used to shoot small vermin such as squirrels and rats at close distances, and are somewhat underpowered for many outdoor rodents (which are often alert enough to spot hunters from a long distance away and flee or hide underground), small predators such as coyotes and larger feral animals such as goats and pigs. The varmint rifles are very suitable for repeated medium/long-range shots from a fixed firing position, thus fulfilling and overlapping the functional demands with both in terms of hunting applications.

  • Il varmint è un'arma da fuoco di piccolo calibro o a gas compresso, generalmente un fucile, utilizzata per cacciare animali dannosi per le fattorie e altre strutture antropiche. Il termine deriva dall'inglese colloquiale varmint che indica tutte le specie di animali dannose per l'uomo e la cui presenza provoca disagi di vario tipo. Sono definiti varmint i topi, molti insetti e animali predatori come i coyote. (it)
  • Varmint - broń myśliwska, rodzaj sztucera, nieco od niego cięższy. Służy on do uprawiania . Posiada grubszą i dłuższą lufę, w celu poprawienia skupienia. Broń ta zazwyczaj nie posiada fabrycznie zamontowanych mechanicznych przyrządów celowniczych. Varminty wyposaża się natomiast w celowniki optyczne, lunety. Charakteryzują się wysokim skupieniem, około 25 mm na 100 metrów. Sztucery varmintowe produkuje się głównie w kalibrze .223 Remington. Broń ta wykorzystywana jest głównie do bardzo precyzyjnych strzelań sportowych i myśliwskich, rzadziej - ze względu na większą masę - do polowań.
