This is a hatsan at44 long action in .22 caliber. i have it set up to shot 29 grain pellets at 860fps at the moment.been using it this week to knock the starlings out of the tree line in my yard at about 65yds. almost too easy!

Looks to be a PCP, and at those grains and muzzle velocity, it's pushing quite a bit of energy. I would be very careful with that kind of power in an urban environment.

How's this rifle group at those distances?

i dont do much group shooting, but it will keep all ten in a quarter at that distance, better if i use more precise pellets like jsb or H&N, but i set the gun up for fox originally and that pellet proved more than accurate for the 40 yards or so that i try to limit myself on predators with a .22 caliber, and i was looking for good penetration. as for energy, it work out to a tad over 44fpe...Also, i am about as far from urban as you can get. though i do live on the outskirts of a village. there is plenty of room here.i am in dairy farm country

This one is an airforce condor in .25 caliber. it has a modified valve as well as some other work done to it. it will do over 120 ft lbs with slugs. right now i am working with 52 gr soft cast slugs right at 1000fps or so, with room to go on the power adjustment wheel. i am working on getting some swaged slugs sized to different diameters, they are pure lead and i think they will do better. also am in the process of getting a green mountain 27 inch bull barrel in .257 caliber turned for it as well as a heavier hammer made of brass, once the work i'm hoping to do on it is complete, i should be able to reach the 170ft lb range. the second gun is a modified talon ss with a 24inch barrel and shroud. the chuck was from last year, taken at about 75 yds. note the surgical placement, key with an airgun. i keep this one set on low power and it spits a 14.3 gr crosman premier at about 1100fps.
