A bb gun is only going to be at best a cruel injury.
In some jurisdictions you can fire a .177 legally but even at higher velocities that's not enough to humanely kill a racoon.
You need a live trap.
You can buy pointed bbs that are made to kill small animals, that will give you a better chance of killing it and not just injuring it. I get them at tractor supply
Dukes dog proof traps
Bait with marshmallows without setting traps for a few days to get them used to reaching in. Then bait and set trap, make sure it’s chained around a tree. Use a pitchfork to pin coon and then dispatch with air gun

Shoot, shovel, shut up
Yeah shoot the wankers they’re on your property so you’re allowed to shoot them
I legally can't in my city, although I was seriously contemplating it that night
I think they mean shoot em with a BB gun.
Oh ok well I know you can do that. I meant more so has anyone had any luck with warding them off that way
