My 1500fps behemoth penetrating a 1.25" thick wood board with a 7.9gr hunting pellet.
my pellet gun looks like a normal one from the outside, but it's inner barrel has been replaced and it is cleaned after every 20 shots to insure accuracy, it has deeper rifling to grip the pellet and keep it accurate past supersonic speeds, and it's piston is titanium with a thick oversized rubber seal. it blows a 7.9gr pellet out the barrel at speeds between 1500fps and 1750fps depending on the ignition source used, and will blow pba raptor pellets out at speeds over 2100fps. this is probably the most powerful airgun in the world as far as velocity, and in energy, it still approaches 40 to 70 depending on the pellet used. it can still shoot normally at 1000fps and will get .20" groups at 25yds, and all together cost me only $120.00, the parts to modify it were scrap that my friend helped me transform into gold, lol.

  • @drewnickel oh ok i could care less about the gun but not worth getting injured lol thanks for the warning

  • @TheAirhunter69 I'd be very careful though, it's extremely dangerous, I got lucky on the first try, but you could end up ruining your gun or getting seriously injured

  • @drewnickel i wouldnt deisel but id put the the spring in it i think ill do it to my p.o.s b-31

  • @TheAirhunter69 they're fun, but I wouldn't suggest it, the spring's constantly under tension and could fly out with lethal force (this proven when it shot into the drywall ceiling of my house). you can diesel it but only a tiny bit in the skirt of the pellet, only enough to see a bit, tap it on a piece of paper to get the extra off, and then clean after every 10 or so shots so it'll maintain accuracy. it'll have the same power, but not the durability so dont do it often

  • @drewnickel i wanna make one ha ha

  • @TheAirhunter69 it was no more than $140, I already had the parts and my friend machined it for me and it just worked, it's 1050fps without and I get .25" groups at 25yds, 1500+fps with diesling with lead and I still get less than half inch groups at the same range, without diesling pba raptor pellets go about 1300fps and will have surprisingly good accuracy, about half inch at 25yds, and with diesling it's 1875fps with accuracy about 3/4" at 25yds.

  • @drewnickel dang thats nice

  • @TheAirhunter69 it's a beeman rs1 modified with a stronger barrel blank ( the same used for .17hmr's but without the cartridge chambering, just the bore and rifling) a titanium piston, tougher spring and thicker seal, so it can diesel efficiently and without damaging the gun, I clean it every 20 shots to avoid sut and lead build up. it'll pierce up to 2" with a saboted tugsten steel penetrator from a used .223 ap round

  • what gun do you have?
