The gun I’m semi intrested won’t leave much change from 2K and then I need to get a little compressor deal etc . Doubt I’ll cave in and buy , but like I said doesn’t hurt to look especially if we eat somewhere decent for lunch .
Theres a production 50 caliber air rifle now I think there is the Air Force Texan now comes in 50 cal. I was watching a video awhile back of them slinging some 750gr Amaxs out of it to 900 yards. You're basically duplicating the 510 Whisper but without the hassle that a rifle in that caliber entails. If I remember correctly a 750 amax launched at 750 or 850 fps only looses around 200 fps out to 1000 yards.
