So I was looking around at Academy where I bought my Gamo Swarm Maxxim that shoots over 1000 fps (at least advertised) and I see all these cool looking pellet and bbq SBR's but mostly all don't shoot past 500 fps so makes me wonder if they can actually do any damage control at all like squirrels and possums which is the issue i have around my place.
Crossman full auto 430 fps; SIG MCX .177 700 fps, ( the only one that high); DPMS full auto 430 fps with BB's; MPW co 2 powered BB rifle 430 fps;
Another question please, while looking around online at different air rifles because my Gamo is so inconsistent, one minutes shoots dime size groups and next day not even in the same area and more spread out, same pellets and what I see is that most of the better air guns weigh more than real rifles, most weight way more than my AR15 so just curious if any one here knows why do air guns need to be so dang heavy?
Not into high dollar pellet or bb guns just want something for the above mentioned reasons.
Thanks
