Hi,
I am a beginner to this forum and also a beginner to airgun
I have a budget but i really want to get something where i wont regret in the future.
These are the stuff i want to get for my first airgun
thinking about picking all these up from Airgun Depot

FX impact M3 Bronze .30 $2099.99
Hawke Vantage IR 4-12x50 AO $239.99
Hawke Tactical Match High 34mm rings weaver $72.99
FX Carbon Fiver 480cc cylinder with valve $299.99
Tanto or Sumo Moderator
FX impact side-shot Mag Upgrade

For target practice:
JSB Match Diabolo Hades 44.75gr
For Hunting:
JSB Diabolo Exact .30 50.15gr
JSB Knockout SLUGS .30


Heres my questions:
Is the standard M3 good or should i just get the compact?
Mainly im going to do some deer and mostly yotee.
Want to get the 580cc for the extra to carry with me when i go out.
but don't know if i add the moderator to my 600mm barrel will the tank stick out?
will it make a difference if it does stick out?
Is the sight good enough?
Any other place or site any can make this build cheaper?
Is this a good build and enough for my needs?

Thank you for helping me out. would love to see the comments from everybody.
Thank you

what about yotes and boar?

You’re going to get about 100fpe energy out of it which is almost as much as a 22LR. That should make it easier to research for yourself. I’m not expert in this kind of thing but 1) if it’s legal in your location 2) is it even reasonable or humane?

There are much higher power airguns out there for hunting bigger stuff. That’s where I’d look for these animals.

WV just opened up airgun hunting for deer and bear. Min requirement is .45 cal and 200gr bullet. I think that s a good thng. Me thinks the .30 is too light for deer. Like the other poster said, would you go after deer with a 22lr?

very true. Then i guess i will leave the .30 to just boar.
But do you guys think my first setup is good? anything i should change before i order?
