Airguns are not limited to what they used to be: guns for training children on gun safety. These days, airgun technology is advancing to the point where we can shoot heavier projectiles faster than ever before out of production rifles.

Yes, this is hard to believe, but not when you are holding a 600 grain slug in your hand.
