    This platform is very adjustable, The tune is set to the most stable speed for the pellets. This could easily be tuned up above 1500fps if I wanted to make some noise with it but it wouldn't be accurate I haven't had this particular rig too long but I have taken rabbits at 100m with it, with the heavier pellets (and more powerful tune) it should be able to take rabbits out to 200m. The rabbit that was taken at 100m was interesting, it was a lung shot due to a little bit of wind drift and the pellet passed through the organs without hitting any bone and was captured just under the skin on the far side with no damage to the pellet at all other than the clean rifling marks - see the pic I took of it.
