I apologize in advance if this question is too off-topic for this forum but I wasn't sure where else to post it. Does anyone have experience hunting with or shooting big bore (.35+) air rifles? Apparently, air rifles have been around a long time, though the current versions bear little resemblance to their ancestors.

I have been doing some research on these guns for deer hunting in E MA. They certainly seem lethal enough, but currently are not permitted for deer hunting in MA. I am considering pushing for a change and am gathering information to support that.

Thanks in advance, Doverham

Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.
