    As you have already stated it doesn't mean anything if you can't hit the target. At FAC levels above 22-24 ftlb power ceases to mean anything other than flatter and faster as at 25.5ftlb the pellet can still have over 12ftlb left at 100yds IF you can hit the target!. In other words the power of the rifle has ceased to be a limiting factor at humane ranges, it's down to you and the accuracy of your combo. Have a play with Chairgun!


    Forgot to mention
    Ben Taylor MFR in .22 running at 25.5ftlb with JSBs, 27.5ftlb with Bis Mags, and 30ftlb with Dae Sungs.

    50 shots from a 248bar fill

    I use the JSBs or variants cuz speed is king!
