Generally yes. You can get about 100 shots from a standard Co2 cartridge. If your wanting to kill small game then gas operated (Co2) guns are what you need to look at because they usually have the most power. I have a Daisy Powerline .177 that uses Co2 and shoots 375fps and I killed a rabbit from about 20 yards away.

Well I have a Crosman storm 1200 fps pellet gun and I love it but it takes a long time to load unless you can pull the barrel down fast. So since I wanted something fast accurate and easy to load I thought about one of these but my dad said they're not very good. I just want a pellet gun that is fast accurate and easy to load, any suggestions.

C02 airguns will give you the most shots per cylinder. All you have to do is keep reloading the pellets or BB's. The downside is C02 airguns can not attain the power of a pump or a spring driven airgun. Springer's will give you more power but you have to re-cock them each time and usually only get off one shot at a time. Pump air rifles have to be pumped up to 10 times to reach their max output, but it will still be a little less powerful than a springer, but more powerful than a C02. So it is a trade off. You have to decide what you want.

Their is one other option, but it is expensive, and that is PCP air rifles (PreCharged Pneumatic) These are the most powerful air rifles made. The cost is around $300 up to $1,300. They require a Scuba tank to charge them to 3000 PSI. Most PCP's will give you 10 good shots on a charge. One of my rifles is a PCP made by a company called AirForce. It fires with air or a very large C02 tank and gives me around 200 shots of a .22 caliber pellet on one tank full of air at 1,200 FPS. Personally I would stick with a spring driven air rifle because you never have to worry about an air source. As long as you can cock it, it will fire.

I would suggest the Crosman 1077 it is a C02 rifle but gives you multiple shots before you have to reload and is fairly accurate. I own 2 of them and really enjoy them

What kind of bullet does a airsoft beeman p17 need?

The Beeman P-17 is a Pellet Pistol not an Airsoft Pistol. Airsoft shoot 6MM plastic BB's. The P-17 shoots .177 caliber Pellets at 410 Feet Per Second. (FPS) considerably faster and deadlier than any airsoft pistol. Do not shoot anyone else with a pellet pistol it could cause serious injury. If you are not sure how to shoot a pellet pistol find someone who understands shooting to teach you. Pellet pistols are beyond BB guns so the P-17 is NOT a BB gun. Be safe.


Is a 320 fps pellet gun any good?

320 in a pellet gun is average. there are a few that have a higher FPS, but anything that fires between 300 - 400 FPS is normal for a C02 pistol. Rifles on the other hand currently are made to fire above 1000 FPS. The Crosman 1377C fires above 600 FPS but you have to pump it 10 times and it is a single shot pistol

What type of co2 cartridges and pellets does a ted Williams 126 1909 pellet gun take?

Crosman and Daisy made air guns for Sears under the JC Higgins and Ted Williams brand name. Your pistol is a Crosman model 150. It's a .22 caliber not the normal .177 Pellet pistol. Your gun takes a standard 12 gram C02 cartridge. ( Any Brand). ( You can find the pellets at any large sporting goods store like Basspro, Cabelas or Big 5.) See the link below for the Crosman Owners Manual


How do you load the 35 round cartridge for the Daisey M2001 Powerline CO2 Pellet Rifle?

I have researched this model and can not find any Daisy m2001 powerline. They did make a model 2003 that fired 35 rounds. it was made between 1995 and 2001. It was semi automatic. But it was a pistol not a rifle. If this is your pistol I suggest that you contact Daisy directly (800) 713-2479 and ask for an owners manual.
