I am pretty sure it was pushing 1000 fps when I got hit in the finger. \:o The other thing is that I have spent some plinking time shooting at 1-2" BG with .22 handgun at the pond, even with a .22 the water slows the bullet down significatly before getting to the fish. I have doubt you could kill a CC or GC with a .22 if they are more than 6" under the surface.


Hey kids, let me pretend to be your momma for a minute and caution against shooting at the water with any rifle rounds.

Oh, and there are some Gamo pellet guns shooting at 1600 FPS with PBA Raptor ammunition. http://www.gamo.com/

There is a video around of a guy using one to kill a 200 lb boar with a head shot.
