SEAN3513 7 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 pcp is the only real option. career 707..........up 70+ ft/lbs or any of the theoben rapid series. you will be looking at around the £450 mark upwards.........FAC air rifles tend to sell for a bit less than sub 12 ft/lb legal limit rifle as they have a more limited market. cheers sean Quote Link to post

the Verminator 0 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 hi i have heard that if you go much above 30ftlbs then you start to loose your accuracy, i looked at fac pcp's as i have a slot on my ticket for one and like d the look of the AAS410 variable power one, you could use that in many situations. good luck with it Quote Link to post
marko 30 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) rapid mk1 can be tuned to 60ft lbs try rapid neil or is it colin try anyway on bbs he is the boy on rapids or contact him through manchester airguns just mention you want a rapid fac if thats the gun you are interested in because of the big bottle will give you plenty of shots you need to think about this because the higher up you go the less shots you get. http://www.manchesterairguns.co.uk/ Edited June 17, 2009 by marko Quote Link to post
ian88 0 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 DAYSTATE 30lbs ,good for 80/100mtrs with defiants (pellets 18,s with large head) Quote Link to post
ghillies 209 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 (edited) the usual type cylinder airguns are from about 30 shots down to 10 or 15...so a big bottle required. 17-18fp in .177 is this side of sonic for a mid weirght pellet, a little more for .22, i think they just make the pellets heavier to up the fp's(the gun power goes up but the heavier pellet travels slower), as in 900fps but a 20-30 grain pellet, after the 850-900 a lot of pellets lose the acuracy a bit.. then theres barrel legth too. i beleive the usuals power rating is 30fp for .177 with a bisley magnum(heavey pellet or such likes) or 40 with .22 and a heavey pellet. apart from that yup contact manchesterairguns, thems the rapid boys ....

Edgar 1 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 You could get a high power gas ram rifle, such as the Theoben eliminator. Its single shot but it doesnt need charging. Never owned 1 but it might be just what your looking for. Quote Link to post
