today i was hunting (torcazas cabesiblancas) a black pigeon whit a white head whit a 500 fps 7 joules air rifle, my two partner are using a GAMO 1250 fps whit JSB pellets one and a 12 gauge shotgun the other...after four hours of hunting i leave the forest whit 16 pigeons, the 12 gauge friend take 6 pigeons and the gamo friend only 3 pigeons...i was shooting well beyond 35 yards aiming 3 inches above de head and the pellets hit the most of the pigeons in the upper chest going through cleanly. the gamo friend shoot above 30 pellets and almost dont hit nothing and the 12 gauge friend only shoot the six shells, he said i can come closer enogh..lol
