I would like to see a multi pump rifle that was based on the Benjamin discovery and having a raised breech with a shroud. Power equivalent to a 392 would be perfect for small game hunting and plinking.

Bob Stoerne built what he calls a "Millennium pumper " and documents it on Gateway to Airguns in "Bob and Lloyd's Workshop " if you want to search it out. Very interesting project. He started another, I believe that would make even more power.
I don't think he's interested in producing them and don't know of anyone else who might. Would be quite expensive with all the work involved.
I have an old Sharp Ace that will make 23 or so ft lb in 177 and a bit more in 22 but it's WORK to get that much out of it. My Daystate Sportsman will also make upper 20s ft lb but it's even more difficult to pump. The Seneca Aspen seems to be the best right now.

Well just off the top of my head I would say start with a Seneca Big Bore 44 or Sumatra ; remove the lower tank and replace it with the pump from a Seneca Aspen . Not saying it's that easy , but I believe it's possible to construct .
