Thanks I’ll check tht out. Sounds like a pretty large bore air rifle. They make them as large as .50 cal. Those though need compressed air, and can only shoot around 4 shots or so before the tanks lose enough air to be effective, so there is a downside to the compressed air type for the real large bore pellet rifles. The smaller caliber ones can use smaller co2 canisters and can shoot many rounds.

I currently have a .17 caliber under barrel mechanism. It shoots about 800 fps. Some though get up around 1100 fps, mine drops off pretty quick, but can punch nearly through a 1/4 inch plywood. Enough to take down pest squirrels if needed, though the Larter Grey squirrels you gotta be precise with, not so with the larger bore pellet guns. The bigger bores though smash right through even thicker plywood,, with no problems, even the break barrel ones.

Would like to get about a .30 with a magazine that holds around 15 shots or so (or however many they hold). They run around 3-400 or s, not too bad, though they ares still air rifles, should be down around 1-250 or so imo.
