Some air guns exceed 1200 fps. last summer I had blue jays attacking me while hanging laundry. relentlessly. I got tired of wearing the safety glasses and hard hat. Swinging the rake was a fools errand. They would stage in tree tops then launch straight at my head wings tucked and claw me. .177 air pistol was perfect given their straight at me line of flight to my sights. poof! blue feathers everywhere. kinda kool shooting them on their strafing run.
