It is well documented that the maximum distance for a hollow based pellet is 450 yards.Tom Gaylord did extensive tests.With the airgun community going to slugs that changes the distance numbers.If they keep it up the lawmakers will have no recourse but to restrict airgun ownership.

Both Chairgun and shooterscalculator.com think that a .22 Baracuda at 900 fps can exceed 600 yards. That would be from a fairly stout .22 PCP. Did he have access to something like that at the time of those tests?
Tom didn’t need and doesn’t need a computer program.He shot the pellets himself at a 45 degree angle.You can stir the pot and try to argue the subject all you want.I am not biting!
