@ 700 fps vs 1000 to 1200 fps for powderburner 20's.

Sorry just not interested.

However, because it is not technically a firearm it may be legal to own for someone who has lost his firearm rights. (Felon)
It is interesting what they are able to do with PCP air guns these days.

This makes a lot more sense for a hunting gun. You can cast .457 bullets for it, get 12 shots per fill and over 600 ft-lbs. Sure it costs more but that is one time "pain".

Some years ago I had a buddy with a CO2 shotgun made in Philippines. If I remember it was 28 gauge. He shot round balls from it.

I had one of Terry Tate's PBBA 20ga shotguns it used a cartridge you could load birdshot, buckshot or slugs it pushes a slug around 850fps if I remember right and got 5 shots on a 34-3600psi fill it also came with a barrel insert so you could shoot 457 bullets, it was a lot of fun to shoot but I didn't like the balance for me so I sold it and bought a pcp rifle.
