Welcome. I am a year younger and didn't buy my first PCP until I retired in 2020. I am up to 6 now. All easily capable of hitting a turtle in the head if I do my part. The 177 even took a large one at about 25 yards with a clean head shot. I had a Sheridan blue streak growing up and still have it but PCPs are lots more fun. Once you get a compressor, no pumping. Even when I hand pumped doing it in one session and then getting 20-50 shots until it needed recharged was better. Pellets are poor ballistically and thus very wind sensitive but they can be very accurate.
