In 2006 I took a Quackenbush .457 cal Air rifle to South Africa to hunt big game. In 2007 a friend of mine Stephan Boles bought the air gun and wanted to kill a Bison. So we headed to central Texas and did just that. At 53 Yards the Quackenbush .457 cal Air gun shooting a 510 grain bullet doing over 700 fps took down the Bison quickly with two perfect shots

On this video, we take a look at my new creation, a .375 cal airgun. I built this rifle to shoot deer accuratly at 300 yards. putting out 460-500 foot pounds of energy, it has plenty of power to kill a deer size animal at that range. It was built on an Airforce airguns Texan platform with a .357 valve. The stock is from Maddod and the scope is an Arken. the Trigger is replaced with a precision trigger from RMPA. The .375 barrel is a TJ barrel and Valve poppet is from Doug Nobel. The Eagle vision scope rings are from Utah airguns and the carbon fiber 4500 psi bottle is from Leathal air.
A 267 grain bullet sized to .3745 is what shoots best out of this gun. Filled to 3700 psi, they are doing 890 fps. Bullets are from Airguns of Texas.
The first kill for this rifle is Two coyotes I shot at my buddies Ranch called the “Hoot n Hawlar”.

Oct 2017, I drove down to south Texas to meet up with Alan Cain, whitetail deer program leader for TPWD. We shot the Airforce Airguns that afternoon then headed out to the blind to shoot some management spikes. This hunt got the ball rolling to get the laws changed allowing airguns for big game in Texas.
This was opening deer season in Texas and I headed down to the Texas Hidden Springs Ranch to see who, Keith Warren or I would be the first person in Texas to shoot a deer with an airgun since the laws changed. I was hunting with my Airforce Airguns Texan SS .457 shooting BHD 330 grain cupnose bullets topped with my Athlon Optics Talos scope.
