    not all shooting permissions are suitable for rim fire or centerfire .so that's where a FAC airgun comes in handy especially if the user wants to use a .25 airgun . and some permissions are very open so getting closer to the quarry may not be easy so a little more range with an FAC airgun is handy
    What I am saying is why bother with air over 28/30 ft/lb when you can have .22 cap .22 short and ,22 long and
    under 28ft/lb if you like bongers they are self contained unlike puffers and to me that is the big advantage of bongers

    You dont hear much about .22 cap I think they are about 20ish ft/lb.

    cb longs http://www.cci-ammunition.com/produc...=1&loadNo=0038 32ftlbs 29grain. so not far off a .25 in FAC at 30 ftlbs.
