The vast majority of airguns available today come in either the .177 or .22 calibre, but several manufacturers have developed “big bore” air rifles in the .30 & .50 calibre. Big bore air rifles bring power and accuracy to hunting larger pests.

It is a historical fact that larger bore air rifles have been around for a couple hundred years and more recently custom builders and small manufacturing concerns in this country have been producing larger bore air rifles. Interest in these rifles has grown as a small group of hunters started hunting predators and larger game with “big bore” air rifles and a few manufacturers have stepped up to the plate.
