Airforce Airguns has a .45 cal that they call the Texan and a suppressed model, the Texan SS. I've had a Texan that we turned into an integrally-suppressed model before they came out with their SS...AWESOME. Fill it from a scuba tank. The heaviest pellets I've shot are 400 gr....packs a punch and the hogs don't like it! Before the .45 cal, we killed a ton of pork with their .25 cal Condor fitted with one of our screw-on silencers. We mainly use them in areas where there are firearms ordinances, for hog control, but they are a lot of fun to plink with too!

Can shoot sabots down to .357 up to 1300fps.

I’ve been checking these out. What size, weight, critter would be the limit for the .25. I’ve found a real good deal but leaning toward the .45 SS. I know TPWD is voting in January to legalize them for deer hunting but not sure what the minimal caliber would be. Any ideas?
