I noticed the Red Fire variety of this ammo had a FPS limitation but I only see Enhanced Velocity on these. Is there a velocity limit on this type?

The blue flame, is a lighter pellet than the red pellet, No velocity limitation.

i have it in an old nightstalker, i've used 70 rounds, the trajectory has not changed. they are good units for the money.

Hi David, I have tried all kinds (7 different types) of pellets from pointed tip, round, flat, all types with no consistency. All these pellets ranged from 7.8 grains to 14 grains. I cannot find a pellet that shoots well past 15 yards. Anything past 15 yards is unpredictable with groups no better than 12 inches. I gave up trying. Ive been shooting guns for over 30 years and this was just frustrating to say the least. Ive even tried 3 different scopes on the gun and still no luck. So Im pretty sure it wasnt me. Id look into buying another gun. Maybe this gun I received was just defective or something. Good luck.

Yes, but only once and in the beginning. It was a combination of bad pellets and me not being swift and concise when I pulled back the bolt. I regularly oil the bolt now and can start to feel when it needs oiled again. I have had the best luck and accuracy with RWS Superpoint Extra .22 pellets. I have literally tried most of the brands. I have nearly 3000 pellets I won't put through the rifle now. Some I knew would jam the bolt just how they fit in the mag. Its really not the bolt jamming, for me it was bad ammo not loading into the barrel properly resulting in a jammed bolt. I used a barrel cleaner to unjam it, with the assistance of a hammer. I thought it was ruined. I wouldn't hammer the bolt lever, as my friend did with his. It worked but bent it to hell, resulting in replacing the bolt completely. I disassembled mine completely and inspected the barrel entry, luckily there was no apparent scarring. I love this airgun and have modded every aspect of it. I'm shooting just under 1400fps with 14.5gr ammo. Rodents and squirrels are dispatched effectively and humanely. Hope this helps

Yes, just don't keep shooting the same spot and don't shoot too close. It stops my Scorpyd Velocity 165 @ 425 FPS.

I shoot a 180 lb without any issues. I really wasnt aware of a limit on these or the carbon for that matter. My buddy shoots a 195 lb. and used my extras a couple weeks ago also no issues. Everything I have seen from Wicked Ridge (even on their site) has no max poundage listed. Sorry I couldnt be more help :-(

I can't speak to that gun directly, but in my Nitro (piston air rifle- 1100 fps) they certainly do. Over & over. (Just not fast enough to keep the little buggers from reproducing though...!). Hope this helps.

I have a PSE stinger which produces a little over 300 fps and it does fine for me. I realize that isn't super fast but even breaching 300 fps the arrows only get about 8" into the target. The middle got a little soft after shooting some broad heads through it before last hunting season. It still stops arrows in the dead center though. They just stick out the back a little. I don't recommend this target for broad heads at all. Mine took about 500 field tips with absolutely no signs of wear before I shot it with broad heads. I'd actually get one of the bigger models like the 20" or 22". This one is a little small for shooting at the corner dots from longer distances.

Occasional muzzle flash for me but I have only used one type of ammo so far. Concussion and sound are pretty amazing. Sounds like a cannon at an indoor range. I would say a major plus for it would be the reduced recoil and muzzle rise. Definitely worth the money.

It can handle any fps a small caliber can deliver. 22., 17hmr, etc. I haven't shot .223 bullets at it yet. I bought it for pellets, and it barely turns over.So this thing is made for bullets. Happy Shooting...

Probably in single shot mode for zeroing or target shooting. Wouldn't work in rapid fire mode.

I bought this for a .22 benjamin np xl 1100 that shoots a 14.3 grain pellet about 1100 feet per second and one of the targets fell off. The targets are barely tacked on. My brother does a lot of hunting and he said lower velocity rounds might be ok if you weld the targets on better. No guarantees though. Hope that helps.

I can't answer that question because I put a .101 transfer port, B-staley mod. & a disco hammer spring in. I have my gun tuned to shoot 16 gr. polymags at 610 fps & get at least 4 magazines before velocity starts dropping.

My .177 shoots 1225 fps with light alloy pellets, 1000 fps with 7.0 gr lead pellets. As advertised! It is awesome. This one is advertised to get 950 fps with alloy, and probably 800 fps with light lead pellets. While slower, the pellets weigh about 2X what the .177 do, so it hits harder! I would expect the .22 to be every bit as accurate and awesome as the .177, and either will kill small to medium size game.

The maximum FPS is roughly 400, and I'd say if you modified it you could get it to be considerably lower, like around 350, but most CO2 pistols have inconsistent BB velocity because of the unavoidable CO2 leakage.

How do you define EFFECTIVELY? With an advertised muzzle velocity of 800fps, a 14.3 grain pellet will slow to about 680fps at 50 yards; 580fps at 100 yards. I zeroed mine at 25 yards and have found it quite accurate (quarter sized 5 shot patterns) at that range. Good for target shooting at that range. Effective on small pests (gophers) at that range, too. With a 14.3 grain pellet, energy drops 25% at 50 yards and 50% at 100 yards. Not much "stopping power" at those ranges. Also, at 100 yards, the drop in trajectory will be almost 2 feet. I'm NOT an expert, but, it seems "effective" to me at 25 yards, not so much at 50 yards and I would select a different weapon to reach 100 yards.
