I have a variety of pellet guns and firearms.
They make high performance pellet guns that could do the job but they are pricey and loud. A .22 short is as quiet as that pellet gun.
Even your typical ineffective pellet gun is pretty loud.
If you shoot the coon with a toy pellet gun it will run to safety under your porch and plot how to get back at you. Joke, sort of, funny for us, not for you.
You buy the trap and run it. Call someone to come get the coon when you trap one. Clean and effective but not free. Salmon flavored dog treats work really well. The stinkier the better.
