Big bore airguns
« on: August 10, 2006, 02:06:00 PM »
Anyone ever use a 38 or 45 caliber airgun. There is a airgun shop in Anchorage that sells them. Use a special pump to charge it or a scube dive tank. The shop owner claims he has a customer up in the interior that kills carabui with one. Regards, Byron

well i have a .50cal Quackenbush Air Gun and it works well on hogs down here in FL. if you go to http://www.adventuresinairguns.com/Hunting.html

or http://www.quackenbushairguns.com/hunting.html

you will see that those big bore can kill game up to plains game or non-Dangerous game. one thing about big bores is that the cost more then a real gun in cal. like 30/06,300win.mag,338win.mag and they will kill all game from plains game to dangerous game and one more thing is that some state you can't use them for hunting in(here in FL all non-game like coons and yote, pigs , and non-native game is what you can hunt with airguns)

also look at this on http://www.americanairgunhunter.com/africa2006.html   for the power of big bores. oh yeah airguns in the 45cal and under are just like a blackpower guns. 45 and up for big game and 45 and under for small game like yotes, turkeys, rabbits you know stuff like that. if the cal. for the airgun you would not use in a black power gun for that game then don't use it.
