Airforce texan ss 308 or 357

Dallas@markhooper I'd be willing to bet 45 recoil out of an airgun is pretty tame. Especially with a moderator.
Personally, i have no current use for a big bore. I dont even shoot my .30. Ive got a .308 and 45-70 I'll shoot, but those arent airguns.
If I had the space to shoot, space to set up casting, and a real good supply of air, I guarantee I'd have some rather large big bores. At least a .50.
I had not seen the 308 long shot. Maybe I'm just an ass, but I'm not much impressed by guys walking shots. I feel like a very good number of members here could do the same if they had the gun, ammo, air, assistance, range, and time.There is a chance I'm being ignorant.
Oh no, don't say the h wordplease. My mk1 crown does pellets and slugs just fine. Hammer and port adjustment knobs so you get a lot of range of adjustment. My 500mm barrel will send 25gr .22 slugs at 950fps. The 500 is also meant to shoot pellets too. But I still almost exclusively shoot pellets thru the 380mm barrel. Have taken squirrel with headshots as far as 70-75 yards with no issue using 16gr pellets. About as far as I'm comfortable using pellets in almost 0 wind conditions btw. Usually I get them closer like 30-50 yards.
I agree with you about walking a pellet or bullet to a target, especially when we only see one hit.. but then again I have walked a bullet to a target because I didn't know how much to compensate..
the big thing for me is is it constantly repeatable?? once you have walked a bullet to target you should be able to repeat it regularly.. including different days.. it really would be been nice to see them just continue shooting and hitting the target..
but it's not in the in the video so no clue if it was a accidental hit or if it was repeatable.. would be so amazing if it was regularly repeated with very few miss shots

Hello AGN. There is a very good Diana Mod 75 T01 for sale. I just got it rebuild by Airgunwerkers about 2 month ago. There is nothing wrong with it, super accurate and fully functional. No any scratch and rust on the woods and metal. It also come with a nice gloss 10x bushnell sportview scope, but no iron sight.
Im asking $800 shipped or trade for a .177 pro sport or a pcp
Thanks

FWB FWB 300 .....anyone else have one?

After January 1, 1970, power of airguns sold on the open market in Germany was limited to 7.5 joules, roughly 5.5 foot-pounds. They are stamped with an "F in pentagon" symbol (F = "frei," indicating free to buy without license). This translates to around 600 FPS in .177, which is typical for match guns. In those days (maybe still?) the UK limit was 12 foot-pounds for rifles, and 6 for pistols - not relevant to these guns.
The FWB's swept volume can't realistically be boosted much past that, but Jim Maccari makes (or used to at least) a single spring which ups power a bit at the expense of some firing smoothness. The OEM powerplant is two short springs, wound in opposite directions, and joined at the ends to reduce vibration.
