The problem with the "spring piston" air rifles is that. most are quite loud. Some may be loud enough to be mistaken for a .22 long rifle even.
The climate here is ideal for CO2 air guns also, as they are much more consistent in warm climates.
And, yes, there are big bore air rifles as in the movie No Country For Old Men.
I like multi pumps as you vary the power, noise, and velocity by how many pumps you use. Maybe 3 for bench rest targeting, and 6-10 for hunting.
You can get a nice little multi pump that shoots tiny one hole groups for $50. I have some.
