its 458 caliber but doesnt use any powder
picture shows it ........note: NMF [ not my feet ]
made by Jack Haley of mississippi, Southern Airguns
is precharged from scuba tank to 3200psi.....has enough power for big game out to at least 50 yds can use round ball or best with a 440 gr conventional lead bullet from a Lee mold
picked up locally from a guy who needed some $ for his business, and he threw in the tank, regulators, scope, case,etc etc. the air is contained in the tube below the barrel.. beautiful workmanshhip and he says it is quite accurate
new thing for me
anybody else ever used pre-charged airguns??

I have an Air Arms S400K in .22 that is a cool little backyard and field gun. Depending on how I adjust the power, I can get as many as 100 usable shots at target velocity. Adjusting for hunting velocities I get about 15 useful shots before the power drops off too much.
Would dearly like another PCP rifle in .20 caliber. The big-bore air guns are very, very intriguing. Jim Taylor posted about them years ago on the old Sixgunner forum, which is what stimulated a renewed interest in air guns for me.

there are some nice looking Korean made ones, in .22 and
even 9mm,. they even have lever actions!! they seem reasonably priced and i would think quite practical for small game.
