A look into hunting airgun ammo

(1/4) > >>

NOMADIC PIRATE:
I had a ton of mail asking for more info on airguns, as I said I'm not much as an expert, still learning myself.

I will show my quiver ( in the surfing world you call a quiver your collection of surfboards) since I have quivers in archery, I will call quiver my collection of airguns too ;D ;D

O.K. so, eventually I'll show my quiver of guns, but today i'll start with showing my hunting ammo.


Starting with the basic .177 cal or 4.5mm , this one is a bit on the high end at 10.5gr Hollowpoint, perfect for birds











Than we go to the .22 cal or 5.5mm ,  shoot this out of a rifle and a pistol, this one is on the medium to high range at 18.2gr Hollowpoint  devastating on small birds, good for chickens, it would be great for rabbits and animals that size if we had them












Next is the .357 cal or 9mm , nice round at 116gr Hollowpoint, I shoot this one out of a rifle and a pistol, good for short range head shots on hogs, and long range big birds









Finally the .45 cal , this one I shoot out of a rifle at 200gr hollowpoint is good for both body and headshots for hogs














Those are the calibers I have for my guns, I have many different weight of ammo for each caliber, i was just showing the top of the line on each,

hope you enjoyed it, and i see you on the next instalment  ;D ;D

Cool. i've never seen a .45 cal airgun before. Looks like it would do the trick

mrkinsey:
Did you buy your large caliber airguns from anyone in particular?  Did you make your own? 

NOMADIC PIRATE:
Robert Vogel from indiana makes those big bore ammos, he shoots and makes .50 cal and .58 cal guns/ammo  :o :o :o :o
