I own several air rifles and short guns none could even remotely be called an orange tipped air soft one of my .22 pellet rifles has just about the equivalent muzzle velocity as a .22 hornet the 36grain pellets have about the same stopping power as a 22long rifle round. although nowhere near the range, but a neighbor has one of those .45 cal AIr guns with twin 3000PSi tanks it will fire about 20 times on a charge I wouldn't want to be in the crosshairs of that thing He has even killed a couple hogs with it
