Best version of the FX Panthera for hunting.

[Tonyo155]

I am thinking of the Panthera 500 for next summer and getting it as a hunting gun. I know this is a PRS rifle but I feel like the Panthera 500 would be a great gun for hunting to ranges to 150 yards or even more. Do you think the Panthera 500 would be the best for hunting between the three models or a different gun all together?

I'm totally befuddled as to why you need a moderator seeing as you stated you shoot all over the place with PB's.

Because it doesn't matter with PBs. But with air guns I want to as quiet as possible.

The thing is with the moderator is that I can hunt and maybe take multiple specimens of prey with a moderated airgun. While with a PB I can only hunt one big game animal a year. So noise does not matter with big game hunting.

Then from a financial point of view? Just get the license for a PB Moderator.
Save yourself thousands of Gittas!

Because the license would cost a lot. Also I have no PBs that have a threaded barrel. That costs $200-300 dollars to get them threaded.

Well he did say he dropped a Moose or an Elk on the run.
So maybe join the Army and qualify for Sniper. The sign up bonus will buy your fantasy setup.

I know that moderators will make the barrel droop a tiny bit lowering the distance the pellet or slug will travel.

I am legitimately thinking this account is a troll lol

I can't. I have medical conditions.

So $200 for the Tax fee, $200 or $300 to thread a barrel.
Compared to $2000 or so for the FX and then extras?

 

[Privateer]

I can't. I have medical conditions.

Yeah. I think We are seeing evidence of that.

 

[Tonyo155]

Yeah. I think We are seeing evidence of that.

Not mental conditions. When I was two I had a kidney transplant. I was born with Eagle-barret syndrome. I can't do physical sports. So airgunning is the main sport I want to do.

A slamming head on a brick wall emoji is SERIOUSLY needed here.

What am I getting wrong?

 

[Privateer]

A. I seriously think you have never shot long range with ANY Air Gun.
B. Your understanding of how things actually work with AG's is lacking in MANY areas.

You are right. I have never shot long range with airguns. I have always less than 50 yards. I don't understand how airgun ballistics work.

Airgun ballistics are no different than powder burner ballistics. The numbers are what they are

Tell me this drops my POI.
