"I've only got like seven or eight shots left on this bottle, so no pressure." *literally*
Same
Does anyone know of spring action rifles that perform that well?
+Golden Duck there are none in production to my knowledge
No you'd really struggle to get a springer to shoot well above 16fpe. The effort of cocking alone would make it impractical, and you've never get it shooting accurately with the double recoil. Springers perform best around 12fpe.
Not quite. I have a springer that drops about 20FPE and it's only about a 35 pound cocking effort and makes quarter sized groups.
12FPE is only a baseline because lots of the companies are English and the English limited guns to 12FPE by law.
I've also got a hatsan that's a .30 caliber break barrel, it's about a 50 pound cocking effort, and it's easy to shoot accurately. Hard to cock, but not so bad with a little bit of break-in.
I've gotta say, that was a LOT more impressive than I was expecting. Especially those shots at 400 yards.
I'd love to see more air gun videos.
Near the same as the Hatsan piledriver on power, max out put with 320gr 726ft/lb. On my docs from Hatsan ,they say, it can be lethal up to 600 yards, well that’s what they say, These beasts are NOT toys. loved this demo.. MORE PLEASE. you should also do the bone and meat test, at say 50 and 100yrds. hows about a car will it go through. loads of ideas.
For these long range tests I would like to see what the shooter sees through their scope, getting some video from that would be cool!
It would be way better theese days with that prizm thing at market.
You're the best at this UA-cam gun thing. You speak in clear, easy to understand terminology, you separate your opinions from fact, and when you don't know, you don't just start BSing your way through. You say that you don't know, but you'll find out. That deserves a like and a sub.
"I've only got 5 or 6 shots left in this bottle, so no pressure" ha...
"Im not worried about the rain" - Mentions its raining 10X
lol
Seems he truly is made of sugar
When it rains it pouts 😊
I love how you experiment, keep em coming!
"No pressure"
I see what you did there
Seeing the flashback reminds me of Barry. R.I.P. Barry. A true gentleman and knowledgeable man. His wisdom is sure missed by us. Such a tragedy for him to have passed, but heaven gained an upstanding good hearted man.
Are you including the criminal charges in all that?
kev We've all made mistakes in our lives. It doesn't mean that someone isn't a good person.
What are those?
Who?
Why are you acting surprised that Barry.. A real nigga… Did some real nigga shit from time to time..
You sound like a narc. He had his demons, let him rest.
Awesome ! A very impressive demonstration! Thank you for this!
Great video!
You should do a video on how far a combat knife equipped with a 16x optic will kill
or a 100 round magezine with a supper espresso
Well shit... looks like I need to go dig out my pt belt. That’ll keep me safe. 😂🤣
I have a bipod on my knife and it just improves my aiming
@@Panzer_Runner same here!!
@@SHOOTER3258 Um i just bought a bipod for my bipod. Worth the investment btw.
Interesting history fact: Andreas Hofer and his men fought against Napoleons invading troops in Austria equipped with Air Rifles.
Don't forget the Lewis & Clark Expedition. They used/carried an air rifle, as well... Safe Shooting!
True Air-bending!!!!!
Nice to see you know this......... Those rifles did not nearly have the power as today's air rifles have though. And high velocity air rifles are so expensive. ( But then more powerful then a Walther P99QA ) . On the other side the ammo is cheap. Besides don't want to walk all day with a scuba tank on your back ;) was not this rifle I was talking about by the way.
L&C used the same rifle as Austrians, 40 .46 round balls per charge.
First time a commenter says "interesting fact" that actually turns out to be interesting. Great post.
Barry would be proud that was awesome
This reminds me of a time whilst on the surface (sub sailor) and the weapon's officer decides to have some small arms training. I report to the bridge and am handed a .45 Thompson, semi auto mode. I picked a target and let a round go. It seemed like forever for that bullet to hit the target (about 200 meters give or take). Timing bullet trajectory to target in this video brought back some good memories of my military career. Cheers!
Your commentary is always good.
Great test, respect the air power.
7:30 "I've only got 7 or 8 shots left on this bottle, so ... no pressure". Hah - good one. ;-)
I'm really happy to see you using air rifles. I'm a big fan of your work. Thanks Eric and Chad.
Thank you for your service!!
When I was in the Corps we would shoot from the 200, 300 and the 500 yard lines. That being said, I'm very impressed with this weapon. This is exactly what I've been looking for in an air powered weapon. Thank you so much. Great video!
Semper Fi America,
One Shot Two Kills
thanks for doing these airgun videos. i love how you guys have as much fun with air guns as real firearms. in my country it is imposible to own a firearm, however airguns are alowed. its great to see you guys review this type of shooting. respect.
Thanks for this video, Appreciate your help !
Best Texan air rifle test video. Thanks Bud.
id like to see some smaller, more inexpensive air rifles used as well since it seemed like the texan had more than enough energy
megadeth22885 u
varouj farajian u
Most Hatsans will hit that far as well.
AEA has dominated the airgun industry for price and power delivery👍👍👍
@@catherineharris4746 bit of an issue in the accuracy department
Not much air left in the cylinder "no pressure" what a pun Eric! 😂
Definitely interested to see more videos on air guns. This was an outstanding representation of what the rifle will do. Thanks a bunch
this was SUCH a cool video! loved it, just found your channel 👍🏻👌🏼
Well made video. Good Job on continuing through rain. I found this video both informative and entertaining. I'll be looking out for more of this series. thanks.
7:35 Pun intended? "No pressure"
ha I was thinking the same thing
Great review. And thank you for your service.
Good video! Just learning about the power and accuracy of modern air rifles. Thank you
This thing is awesome it's like an air powered musket
That's what I thought when I saw the bullet. Haha 😂
Lol yeah man cool as fuck I want one now be good for hunting small game
Lewis and Clarke used an Air Gun back in 1803 when they crossed America, it was a 40 caliber best that I remember, the tank of gun was in the stock and held about 900 psig., it took around 1500 strokes of a bicycle type pump to fill it to capacity. They would put on shooting exercises at most Indians Villages to impress the Indians and bring a little fear into them since this air rifle could put a hole in a two in. board at two hundred yards, the Indians were very impressed and knew that they were out gunned by this weapons performance. The word spread among other Indian tribes along the way west so Lewis and Clarke as history told it, had very few run-in's with other Hostile Indians...
Good point. Most people don't know this.
It was a repeater as well, something like 16 shots. The rifle was a gerondoni I believe. Not sure on the spelling.
Very impressive!
Look forward to the next video
Eric great videos it’s cool that you try out all types of stuff from black powder to air rifles and everything in between. Great 👍🏼 job.
how far 50 bmg fmj can penetrate level 3 bodyarmor please
I doubt they are gonna find a scope or a range long enough
tooo much...3000-4000 yards but you dont have enough accuracy to hit the bullet from this distance
Yeah, range on that thing is over 4 miles depending on what platform it's being fired from. That would be a hell of a video though.
If you use two level 3+ plates it is stopped.
no, no its not. A 50BMG Black Tip can penetrate a 1inch thick piece of AR500 Steel within 2-3 rounds from almost any distance you put it at.
For that 60 pound squirrel.
@10:20 a miss but such celebration. Man, this is my spirit animal😂😂.(look right of the target)
hahaha yea
Hey, Marine... I saw some dude in MN shooting a Texan out to 1290 yds... world record shot... I didn't see the shot hit, but I saw the splashes around the target... It has the leg to go the distance...
611" of drop? That's 50 FEET of drop lol, jeeeze!
Nice video. Thanks for sharing!
Wow , good video guys , keep them coming I love this channel 👏.
INCREDIBLE AIR-RIFLE!!! GREAT TO SEE!!!
.457 at 320ft lbs haha and here's me in the UK using .177 at 12ft lbs, so the rabbits over there are like the size of donkeys yeh?
Giovanni Francavilla I wasn't being hostile, just amassed at what pathetic ft lbs we are aloud in UK compared to US. Didn't hear that it's for coyote...... eh
Giovanni Francavilla eh?
Agree - They are spoilt - you have to be skilled hunting at 12ft ibs
red i predator same here .22 11.7ft lbs 😂😂
We don't have the same level of Freedom compared to Americans, they have a lot more Individual Freedom, never mind Air rifles, we need to make some type of item legal for self defence here.
Did anyone else notice he said 10-4 right at 10:04?😂
actually at 10:03
Great Video Demo. Thank you
Video was nice. Reading the comments was better.
Put the speed to .5 when Eric is talking.
such speech tempo is perfect training for somebody who are learning english, lol
His Videos are generally good for learning to understand English.
Because he speaks very clear.
😂😂😂
That was awesome guys!!! PLEASE DO A VID WITH DEMO RANCH!!!!
I might add that the board you used was actually laminated plywood, not s solid pine board, which is harder to penetrate than the pone board would have been. Very impressive indeed!
Very cool video brother. You’ve actually got me checking out air rifles. Who woulda thunk it. Stay safe
SEMPER FI
Definitely the Texan in .45 for this Canadian... The SS is a prohibited weapon in Canada... BAHAHAHAHA!!!!
I would be curious to see how the Airforce Airgun would perform using a lighter projectile like a 200gr or a 250 grain hollow point. I'am sure the trajectory and velocity would be awesome. great video Eric, thank you for the research, time and dedication in the hobby of shooting you share with us.
Kind regards!

Hey, love your content, I’ve been watching a lot of the long range stuff lately. Have you thought about getting an ez-up to set up over your bench for hot or rainy days? I do that, cheap and works great. Also I use a drone with an iPad to see my hits at long range. Don’t even fly the drone, just turn it on at the target on a stand, which saves battery. Then use the app on an iPad back at your bench.
No pressure, and its raining. I loved it.
Unintended pun @7:35 lol
He missed both the last shots lol, but he's all like FUCK YEAH!!!!!
Sounded like hits to me
Ikr I saw it and laughed so hard after this comment hahahhaha :))
The last one hit. Did you miss the puff of dust behind the plywood?
Come on dude. Why do you have to bash a patriot?
+Matthew Roach really? he never even did shit. he's a pos pog who takes advantage of those who don't know what he actually did in the military. he's a as lazy now as he was back then.
I have the same Air Force Texan in 45 caliber but it’s the LSS model with the carbon fiber tank and I love it great hunting rifle! Great video though amazed that the Air Force will reach out that far👍🏼🤩😎
this is bad ass. they should make a select fire one. it would be epic. I like the sound it makes.
You COULD drive,3000 miles and then club someone to death with that rifle. That'd be a distance record, I'd bet.
Can we see how far a 12 gauge will kill? Maybe video game designers will stop making them ineffective after five feet.
EDIT: You don't have to explain weapons balancing, my position is that the balancing of most games is flawed.
Or the other extreme where it's basically a pump action long range rifle.
+Inside DeMonz KSG-12 from Bo2
mike pk666
That's because it's a slugshot and it generally goes further than normal buckshot rounds.
If it's more effective shotguns you're looking for, ever tried Killing Floor? Both 1 and 2 have real nice shotguns. Even the starting Mossberg Rolling Thunder (a 20 gauge shotgun, IIRC) feels punchy and can take a Clot's head off at 20 feet or so.
The starting shotgun in KF2 is the best starter weapon in the game. I always use it until the last wave, but i buy the double-barrel and AA12 as well. And oh, i have a Precious skin for it :P
Awesome video, thanks for the education on air rifles
I love your videos dude,you r a good man,respect
Said like Russian: Не сахарный - не растаешь =)
XD
Question: do you find you get that supersonic crack in normal weather conditions? According to Wiki and other sources, air rifle bullets start having a significant drop in efficiency if they fully break the sound barrier, though there could be many reasons for exceptions in this case, hence my question.
only in light rounds like bb guns or .17 or 22 cal pellet guns anything bigger the momentum of weight out weighs that effect
I can imagine someone shooting back at you and hitting that advanced technology tank :)))
That three football fields.
I’m impressed
On pest control, he's a farmer/rancher. It's his family's survival vs. the pests.
Hun ting
How far will a .30 Carbine kill? :P Kind of a nice old Army revisit I think, I'm sure they tested the M1 Carbine on pine board too, And I'm sure the myths of the .30 carbine not penetrating North Korean winter coats is still persisting even though it has been debunked by Ian McCullum
Pretty awesome! Will you be reviewing the new .308 and .357 AirForce Texan models? If so, looking very forward to those video reviews! Thanks, H-F.
That gong shot at 250 was wild lmfao
Ted from Ted's hold over would of nailed the 300 yard shot with his eye's closed. 😉
Was thinking the same thing
bruhh he does amazing shots lol
+julien aguilar it's a shame he doesn't post often
He probably just edits out all the shots he missed
10:17 The shot went to the right of the steel wolf.
Great job keep them coming I'd like to see that test with an AEA 72 cal Zeus
Awesome video sir❤
Have you ever thought about having a cam down towards the target. Could really show, instead of having it back so far.
He couldn't do that, because then his claims of a "hit" would actually be seen as "missed by a fucking mile"
I mean, the guys did say he missed. So, lol
There is always a chance that he accidentally shoots the camera. I'm sure he'd do it if you'd buy them for him.
+DimensionalExpansion maybe down on the ground, like a gopro
+XhyphenX A bit of bullet proof glass could go a long way, bit on the ground would definitely work.
10:16 ''got it got it'' you can see the round hitting on the right side 2 meters..
Nobody cares
Love your channel man
I really enjoy your vids, I've got a .50 cal hammer, air guns are kinda hard to explain to my friends who only know powder guns. But I think they are impressive, I feel lucky to have chosen a .50 because of the access to so many bullets in .50 , I use black powder bullets in mine at .510 . My friends are amazed at the power and accuracy, even my big bore loving friends smile when they touch one off and feel the stock push into their shoulders from an air gun. LOL don't tell the government these things are bad ass. And can be mailed right to your house.
Dont use black powder bullets in an air rifle you are damaging the rifling and wearing out the barrel ! the lead used for BP is much to hard, air rifle slugs are a softer lead
Impressive, please do more tests with different caliber pellets please!
He said he only has about 6 shots left no pressure!! Cause it's on air and it has no more pressure!!! Lol
HumorVortex Mosco you can get thousands of shots out of a tank like that...
Great effort, Love shooting air guns at LR!One thing I picked up though (not trying to put down your efforts)The military spec is for 3/4" solid Pine Board but you are using Plywood.Mick.
This geezer has got the gift of the gab.
did you just call coyotes worthless?
sometimes they are pests.
This may be a dumb question and I've done zero research, but can you swap out the small tank on the rifle like a magazine per say and carry a few small tanks vs dragging around scuba Steve?
"Scuba Steve" lol
The on gun tank will give you about 5 to 10 shots depending on what weight of bullet you are using. There are smaller tanks called buddy bottles that you can tote around with you, usually a 100 cubic inch buddy bottle will give you about 5 or 6 full fills on the gun and will easily fit in a small back pack.
And here's me jumping for joy when I hit a 🎯 at 20 metres in back garden with my beast of a weihrauch 12 ft/lb air rifle Hw90!
😎 Gun & Nice videos Sir;) 👍
Really like this series of videos.
As a guy from Europe. I really would love to see you showing the numbers in meters too.
100 yards is roughly 91 meters.
So 91, 182, 273, 364.
thank you for your interest ,sir
Just multiply by .9 for a rough estimate,seriously its not that hard and if its in feet divide by 3 first.If you want it dead on accurate its actually .9144 ;)
SouthJerseySound 9144 Meters?
Jan Hendrik Franke yes 1 yard is equal to .9144 of a meter.There is DECIMAL POINT there in case you missed it.So to convert yards to meters you multiply them by .9144 to get your answer in meters...........Or would you prefer to convert yards into inches so you can use centimeters or millimeters first and then into meters?lol
This would be a good option for the boating enthusiasts, for offshore and blue water? Where other countries maritime Police and Customs laws will restrict firearms on sea vessels, but a pirate won't know the difference when hit with a silent high velocity pill from one of these bad boys? Maybe a spear fishing version could also be made?
LOL spearfishing....
They are NOT silent ...
@@dennisriblett4622 He's shooting without ear protection. That means it's pretty silent. More silent than moar suppressed firearms.
Holy cow that thing is amazing.
Yeah dude, literally insane!
How far can 7.62x25, 5.45x45 or 9x18 penetrate?
Definitely want to see a penetration test with 6 boards! I want a Texan, but my budget keeps telling me, "Let's eat first....." Awesome video!
Rain SilverSplash even better, good penetration test with a couple sexy birds ;)
***** Foxtrot Oscar
The Texan has a maximum velocity of 1,100 feet per a second which is 750 miles per an hour, which means it is traveling close to the speed of a 40 caliber handgun coupled with it's range capacity this rifle has the same deadliness of a 10.04 g (155 gr) Federal HST .40 caliber handgun within the 200 yard range. So with that said, this gun is basically a .40 caliber handgun with a elongated barrel that runs off air. Anything that the 10 gram HST round can penetrate up to 200 yards, the air gun will too.
get a gamo accu whisper .177. that thing is powerful, accurate, and kicks.
It means fuck off! Damn civilians!
Very good video, thanx. Super.
Seems like that .457 Texan out performed the Daisy Red Ryder Model 25 I had when I was 12 yr. In all seriousness that was a fun video!
I watched 12 minutes of "One More shot for good measures" -_-

Cant say I agree with the assessment that coyotes are worthless but people are getting way too salty about it.
