You could hose down tin cans like a slo-mo version of the St Valentine's Day massacre, but could not reliably put ten rounds into a rat brain size target consistently at normal barn ranges, because the loading mechanism deformed the pellets, even the Gamo ones that were meant to work in it.
Ahhhhh..... I get you now. Pellet mashers a?!
