AEA WHAT THE HECK…3500+ FOOT POUNDS OF ENERGY FROM A .95 caliber AIR RIFLE
- Thread starter Maizen
- Start date
20 years ago was 20 years ago and a big bore then was .25 or .30cal at 3000psi. Apples to oranges.
For the record I'm much more concerned about an accident getting unwanted attention.
Headline :
MAN BLOWS OWN LEG OFF WITH .95 CALIBER AIR RIFLE
Or any number of freak accident that can occur when dealing with .95cal from a company known to have QC issues.
Done.

Unfortunately, things are not the same as 20 years ago. There are more retards out there like never before. Especially in my state...

Just when you think this state can't get any worse, it does 10 fold. Brush up on some of the new gun bills about to pass. Anyway, I shouldn't get carried away with this. I don't want my enjoyment regulated.

That was also before every Tom, Dick, and Jack wagon had a cell phone with instant access to load up videos to the masses drooling for fresh content on their screens.

Coming in 2025 from none other than AEA... I give you the 155mm Zues!
Runs on a regulated 15000 psi, fills to 30000 psi! Generator powers the built in compressor which is powered by the 15 liter diesel engine!
3 shots per fill.
Backyard friendly.

Relatively I think we just about hit the power and recoil level max.in .510 cal. A 650 grain .510 slug will.scope you with my stock .510 Texan. 1.5 ounces of lead is a lot of recoil...At this power level it routinely strips.out stock.screws...Ripped.threads out of frame.factory for.end....Lossens scope.rails.ect.... Also if we could shoot..510 650 grains at a 1000 fps you would have 1000 foot pounds of energy at 300 yards...What more do you want
My 2 cents...

Now we wait for the guy living in suburbia wanting to know how to make it backyard friendly. Neighbors over the fence were complaining.

Seriously, all that damage in a PCP? A .50 BMG is laying down between 10~15,000 FPE IIRC. And I've never heard about one of them coming apart. And my Alken scope is rated for .50 cal.Relatively I think we just about hit the power and recoil level max.in .510 cal.

Perhaps there's an issue with the quality of the gun slinging that lead downrange?

Def a weapon of choice for criminals. (Hope the sarcasm is evident). My actual thoughts on this ZZZ……

If a certain party thinks it's scary looking, they will go after it. And some dip $hit will probably shoot his neighbors cat with it and spark it off.

Where do you get ammo ? And how much per slug or pellet ? Trying think of an actual use , but I got nothing.

Big bores have been around since well before Lewis and Clark.
There will always be a small group of parinoid extremest , that want to outlaw everything from sling-shots, to firearms.
Freak accidents happen no matter the size of the slug, and are often due to ignorance, and/or a lack of knowledge or training.
Being a paranoid airgun enthusiast, will only add fuel to their fire.

This will be perfect for the 2024 EXTREME BENCHREST competition!
Maybe they will move the target out to 1000 yards?
LOL!

The amount of vibrations from large springs and hammers and slow recoil pulse much different than powder burners.
