Moreover, they're surprisingly cheap. A decent break-open .177 single shot, with allow pellets will run around 1500 fps. However, if living in a restricted area, it's best to stick to the lead .... slows 'em down to around 1250 or so. With the allow, you're breaking the sound barrier and it's just as if you popped a .22 rimfire.

Something with those specs will set you back, unless you're gettin' fancy or buyin' a name ... less than two hunnert.

And, they are a blast! Cheap to shoot ta boot.
