With pellet rifles, strongest is not always best. There are rifles such as the Air Force Condor that claim velocities of 1400 FPS from compressed air- others that inject a drop of oil that is burned (dieseling) and get higher velocities (technically those are a firearm, just like a .22 rim fire) HOWEVER-
When a pellet is driven faster than 1100 fps, it is supersonic. It WILL slow down, and drop below the speed of sound. As it drops back through the shock wave at the speed of sound, the pellet will be disturbed, and accuracy will suffer badly.
