Great for Small Game
Air guns that exceed 1000 fps are great for small game hunting. But there are still a few that shoot less than that but are larger calibers which in my opinion is even better. When it comes to any hunting but certainly air gun it is not about Fps rather the punch and hurt it puts on the animal. I have personally took multiple small game animals with my Gamo air rifle which is chambered in .177 but shoots 1300 fps. These kind of guns can be used to hunt small game animals such as, rabbits, squirrel, dove, starling etc. But if we look ahead of the small calibers like .177 or .25 and we look at the larger .30 and .50 caliber airguns those can be used to kill hogs, deer, even large predators.
