Hi; As far as being highbrow not sure what the yard stick is there. Compared to many hobbies, even the highest priced PCP's don't touch the cash outlay: what people pay for boats, bikes, golf clubs, scuba gear, ultralights, ATV, etc. My other sporting interest is kayak fishing, and I have more $$$ in my kayak than any airgun in my collection. As far as the animals I hunt, I am going to South Africa in June and will spend about $6k all up (including airfare) for several days and several animals.... consider that against how many guys spend 2x- 5X that for elk, moose, bear, exotics, etc .... I'd say most of the hunts I propose, or at least many, could be afforded by most people."unionrdr"I thought the idea behind these videos was a good one. Some think showing the high-end PCP's and what's hunted with them as a bit high-brow, out of the average hunter's league, add infinitum. I say you pretty much have too, since the big bore air rifles are basically all PCP's. That said, I could handily kill a turkey with either of my springer's at up to 540 yards or more. Even with My Winchester 1400cs .177 with the right pellet. Between chronograph tests and the local indoor range, I'll prove which pellets are best for a given job in a given rifle. Following in your footshtops, of course.
If enough of us bare out this which rifle/pellet for which game sort of information, not only will the beginners/newbies be able to make better choices, but states will have the info they need to make better law decisions as well.
I'm taking it that your reference to turkey hunting with your springer, you meant to say up to 40 yards right? If not I want to buy that springer!
