    There are a few things you need to know.
    You are limited to under 12 fpe power with your air rifle.
    You can only shoot vermin.
    You can only shoot vermin if you are good enough.
    You will not be told how to increase power on this BBS.

    It would also be a good idea to read the "stickies" at the top of the page.

    I wouldn't necessarily expect it to shoot cans off of a wall. The pellets might well be going straight through.
    I would expect the pellet to pierce three or four cans in a row, regardless of calibre, if it was doing 11ftlb.
    If you're not happy with it, speak to the person/shop where you bought it.
    It is unlikely that people will tell you how to adjust the power, until they get to know you better.

    Easy guys...just another troll.
    Says in his profile he's an engineer..... Last time I checked that profession required qualifications and experience that cannot be gained at your average Cornish high school, so unless he started University at 12 then he's a Walt........ of sorts.

    Oops my mistake......
    I thought it said engineer.
    Sorry mate, obviously the qualification for an enginer can be obtained at high school.... I also believe Learn Direct do a 2 week correspondence course.

    Many apologies.
