411grns at 741 fps = 501 ft/lbs - and NO FAC needed, happy days! :good: :good:


I found THIS website whilst looking for pellets: it has an energy calculator, not sure if it's any good or not but the energy figures are impressive

That's about as ugly as guns get IMHO

The calculation is incorrect. 4.5 is 4.5mm (.177") and not 45 (.45") calibre

That gun is available in .45" (11.43mm) and the manufacturers list 396J or 292 ft.lb at that cablbre, which is a little lower that Chucks original 501ft.lb but still pretty impressive. The standard smaller callibres are much in line with normal FACs though.
