The World’s Largest Floating Airgun

March 16, 2022 By Tom McHale

Maybe, like me, you’re impressed with the incredible industry innovations we’ve seen in the big-bore market. PCP rifles (remember, that last “P” stands for “pneumatic,” a fact that’ll become interesting in just a moment) are now becoming common chambered in caliber numbers starting with fours and fives. While a multi-shot, large-caliber airgun was an expensive […]

It’s Big Bore Season Again…

September 15, 2021 By Tom McHale

An assortment of .45 caliber big bore airgun pellets from Hunters Supply.

It’s big-bore air rifle season. You know how I can tell? I woke up this morning and the sun hadn’t (yet) plummetted into Toad Suck, Arkansas. Or anywhere else for that matter, at least as far as I could tell. So in my world, every day is big-bore season. Sure, big-bore airguns are great for […]

Big Air with Gamo’s TC-45 Rifle

March 13, 2019 By Tom McHale

You'll definitely want a large air reservoir like this Omega Air Cylinders 75 cubic-foot, 4,500 psi tankto keep the TC-45 happy.

Thud. That’s not a sound generally associated with airguns, now is it? However, it was precisely that noise that had the whole rifle line laughing hysterically at my local range recently. I was there lobbing large lead slugs with the Gamo TC-45 big bore air rifle. Initially, the space-age looks and shockingly quiet operation (compared […]

Product Look: Gamo TC-45 Big Bore PCP Rifle

March 4, 2019 By Tom McHale

Gamo TC-45 PCP Air Rifle

Stepping up things significantly, the Gamo TC-45 delivers massive power in a lightweight and quiet platform. The integrated moderator dampens the sound of the report, and the carbon-fiber tank removes unwanted weight. Producing more than 400 foot pounds of energy when shooting 350 grain cast slugs, there’s very little that the Gamo TC-45 can’t put […]

Big Bore Airgun Hunting is Underway in Texas

December 13, 2018 By Tom McHale

Big bore airguns and arrow guns are now legal in Texas for big game animals. This past week, I used my 45 caliber ‘Texan’ with a big 350 grain lead bullet to harvest my first whitetail deer with the power of air. I was hunting up at Ranger Creek Ranch which has been one of […]

Big Bore Airgun Pellets from Hunters Supply

October 24, 2018 By Tom McHale

An assortment of .45 caliber big bore airgun pellets from Hunters Supply.

We’ve been testing a few different big (huge? gigantic? epic?) bore airguns over the past few months. Models like the Gamo TC-45 and AirForce Texan SS require serious big bore airgun pellets. As a result, we’ve developed a deep and meaningful logistical relationship with the kind folks over at Hunters Supply. The company makes gajillions […]

Heavy Metal: The AirForce Texan SS Airgun

October 4, 2018 By Tom McHale

The AirForce Airguns Texan SS is compact yet features a boss suppressor shroud, making it extra quiet given its big-bore .45 caliber capability.

Sound suppressors are often referred to as “cans.” In the case of the AirForce Texan SS Airgun, that seems to be a literal engineering goal, but I mean that in a loving and complimentary way. You see, the raison d’être of the Texan SS is big bore performance without the noise. The standard AirForce Texan features […]
