I’ve got one friend that does air rifle matches and he shoots several classes . He has them up to 25 caliber I believe he said . Another guy that hangs around the shop bought his grandson a 35 cal air rifle . If I’m not mistaken the boy plunked a deer with it two years ago .

About thirty years ago I ran across a Quackenbush circa 1890-1900 air rifle . I bought it and gave it to my pop for Xmas that year , think I paid $100 . Ive been liquidating some stuff and sold that air rifle last year think I got about $400 for it if memory serves .

Charlie I love my air rifles and pistols. Last year I bought 2 PCP rifles, portable bottle and compressor.
These rifles are suppressed and are unbelievably quite. It was way too hot last summer so I came up with a set up to shoot at night. With a heavy metal bullet trap, a portable rechargeable light, I can open the doors from my office at night with the A/C running and practice in the dark. The loudest noise is the pellet hitting the trap. I enjoy shooting my pumps and Break barrel rifles but you are right it flat wears you out. |

If I’m not mistaken there’s still a Quackenbush air rifle company in TX think it is . They build kinda a semi custom deal .
