By "Pellet guns" I assume you also mean rifles, most guns are not designed for hunting anything larger than a rabbit or squirrel. Several rifles are capable of killing Raccoon. First I suggest you use a .22 caliber or larger pellet to put down the animal. I also suggest you use hunting pellets (hollow-point) they mushroom on impact and make a clean kill, if you hit the raccoon in the head or heart. See the link below to get an Idea of the rifles that are available. One I can suggest is the Hatsan model 95 SAS. It is a .25 caliber "Springer" rifle and packs quite a punch. It's a caliber a little larger than the .22 and won't break the bank at $150, but the choice is yours.

There are two pistols that meet your requirement but they are very expensive. The Marauder Pistol By Benjamin and the Talon-p by Airforce. Both will set you back over $400

What will a pellet gun do to a raccoon?

It depends on the size of the raccoon, the pellet and the power of the rifle. If you intend to kill the raccoon, then I would suggest hunting pellets ( called hollow point pellets ) and using a .22 caliber pellet rifle. Do not use a BB gun. Hollow point pellets deform when they hit a target and have maximum knockdown power. A head shot is the most humane shot.
