Never put more than one pellet in the barrel of a rifle at any time.

Break barrel rifles only hold one pellet for each shot. There are some air rifles that hold several pellets in a clip and are fired one at a time. These rifles are usually have C02 power plants. Break barrel rifles are spring or nitro piston systems.

What Is the Maximum Range Of Walther Dominator 1250 Air Rifle?

Manufactures don't list the range of their rifle. It would be nice if they did but they don't. This is because pellets come in different weights. A light weight pellet will travel farther than a heavy pellet but it will be less accurate than a heavy pellet because it more effected by crosswind. A heavy pellet will fly straighter and have more knockdown impact than a lightweight pellet, but won't fly as far as a light weight pellet. Because the Dominator is a PCP class rifle it obviously has more force than a regular air rifle and you can expect a little more distance at full power. Several PCP class air rifles have a power dial and his also effects the distance.

Can a 800 fps air rifle kill a small hog?

It depends on the size of the hog, The size of the caliber, the weight of the pellet and if you can get in a good head shot. Assuming you are using a .177 caliber rifle. (your stretching the limits of the rifle) I would select a H&N Baracuda Match .177 Cal 10.65 grain pellet. Don't get hug up on speed. A heavy pellet will fly slower than a lightweight pellet but will fly straighter and have more knock down power than a lightweight pellet. Hopefully your going after really small hogs, because I think you are stretching the limits of you rifle if it's a .177 caliber air rifle. I recommend a larger caliber, but it's up to you.


How do you identify a pellet rifle?

A pellet rifle has no firing pin. It also can not fire a bullet or gunpowder. It can not be made to do so either. The pellet has no charge (casing like a bullet) it just a pellet. However pellet rifles can be just as deadly as a real firearm. They use Air or C02 to project the pellet downrange. Some Pellet rifles are used for hunting, others for target practice. The Major difference between a firearm and an air rifle, is Gunpowder is use in Firearms and Air or C02 is used in Air rifles.


What is a variable pump rifle?

The Daisy model 880 and the Crosman 760 are both Variable pump rifles. To charge the rifle you must pump the forearm from 1 to 10 times to store enough air to fire the pellet or BB. With each pump you store a little more air in the air cylinder and increase the power of the rifle when it is fired. It takes a minimum of 2 pumps to store enough energy/air to make the BB or Pellet fire. Never pump the rifle more than 10 times or it may rupture the seals.

What is the best and the most powerful air rifle you can get for under 200gbp?

I think you have to identify your definition of power. Do you mean speed or knockdown power? A .177 caliber pellet will travel faster than a .22 caliber pellet but a .22 pellet will have more knockdown power. With 200 GDP ($324) you should be able to find what you are looking for. I suggest you look at the web site below and read the owner reviews. Then you will have more information about your selection.( See the related link below)If this rifle is avalable in the UK then this one has the most power I've seen in an air rifle that is not a PCP class rifle. Its the "Benjamin Trail NP XL 725" its a 25 caliber Nitro piston air rifle.
