I was referring to a .177 cal single stroke unit in the above comment.
Seen it.

this will ring a steel plate at 500 meters.
I'm assuming you've seen A Christmas Story about a 100 times like me??? LOL

You know not what you wield. Deer are easily within capabilities. Learn to tighten, tune and diesel. I'm at almost 1400FPS with some polishing and better seals and packings. All about the aim and breathing after you have the tool. Be safe. And enjoy plinking cans. Peace.

i use the cheap ones to plink around, i have a can of the alloy ones, but at the range i use it, it doesn't seem to make a lot of difference...if i'm trying to hit anything over 50 yds away or take down an animal to eat, i'll put my toy away and get the Hi-Point out
I was actually referring to a member whom thinks it's funny to terrorize/maim/kill other's pets.
It is unconscionable to think that a projectile traveling 1250 fps ("that will penetrate a steel can & X amount of sand") wouldn't penetrate 5/8" of hide, intercostal muscle and the lung causing the animal to drown in it's own blood because you don't want to pick up a bacon wrapper.
Dogs do what dogs do, it's not their fault. If they are being objectionable, man up and talk to the owner or call animal control.
And yes, I have seen a moose killed with a pellet rifle (.177) and heard of a couple of others.

I found these to decimate "Scammo" at ranges beyond 20 yrds. And much better take down due to further penetration inertia. Match the weight to your gun. All differing. And clean the barrel after every outing.

And please share. I hate animal cruelty. Not so much deterred with returning such actions on behalf of my friends. GRRRR!

Yes online. Leave the ballistic plastic tips to Nossler and custom loaded real ammo. LOL.

Beyond catch and release you are mistaken. I kill clean. And then only to eat. Is it not you with a trophy room of mounts? As I have a freezer devoid of game. The hypocrisy. I like you and am fascinated. Will not fawn. Or cower.
Open to your queries.

i do not shoot animals for fun...if i shoot a dog that's about to knock over a weeks worth of garbage in the ass with a pellet gun, that doesn't make me an animal hating monster, no matter what you think about it...it makes the dog's lazy ass owner a piece of shit for allowing them to run free and fuck up their neighbors day...i'm not the one who took responsibility for another living thing, and then neglect it, and ignore the fact that it's causing problems for other people...i hate animal cruelty, we just seem to define who it is being cruel differently
I do have mounts - and we ate all the meat as that's why I shoot animals.
Kill clean? How's that dog you shot doing?

I asked for a bird feeder and a BB gun as a kid was told I was cruel. Grew up and they call it a sportsman now. HYPOCRISY.

I never asserted equivalency. The statement was nothing more than a very brief anecdote. Pellet guns always conjure up that nice kid I knew. Sorry if that post upset you. In your post, I sensed an irritated person. Apologies. I liked your new " Ray Gun " , be careful, always assume it's charged up.

I have never shot a dog other than point blank to the head with 22 Mag after it mauled a child. You owe me an apology. Now I understand. I apologize for my post.
