I am looking at a new rifle, and i am wondering what everyone thinks it could be used for. This is a PCP hunting air rifle, i am interested in because of the reduced noise, so everything wont leave for weeks every time i take a shot.
Caliber: .50
Velocity: 660fps
Bullet Weight: 225gr (Hollow-point, round nose, or ball)

I saw video's online of people shooting through bricks at 80 yards and records of people getting deer, so i feel confident for deer.

Let me know what you think
