Depends on how much money you have to spend.
------------------ new answer----------------------
Manufactures rate their air guns and rifles FPS by using very lightweight pellets. But pellets come in different weights. The heavier the pellet the slower it flies, but it also flies straighter and has more knockdown power over a light weight pellet. Lightweight pellets have a tendency to drift off target in a light crosswind, where as heavy pellets fly straighter.
So if you see an add for 1000 FPS in reality, it is most likely around 925 to 950 FPS.
PreCharged Pneumatic air guns and rifles usually are the fastest when it come to FPS and can attain a speed of over 1350 FPS.
Interestingly, Olympic class air rifles that cost over $2000 only shoot at 500 FPS, but they are dead accurate. They know that slow and heavy is a good combination.
Put it this way: would you rather be hit by a bee at 30 mph or and elephant at 20 MPH.

How fast does an air pistol shoot?
Air guns and rifles are rated by their FPS (FEET PER SECOND) they shoot at different speeds depending on the model. An example is a Daisy Red Ryder that shoots at 350 FPS but a Benjamin Marauder fires a .177 pellet at 1100 FPS. The slowest pellet gun I know of is the Marksman model 1010 that fires at 250 FPS.
Is the daisy 880 power line a powerful bb gun?
750 fps./BB; 665 fps./pellet The name Power-line may be a little misleading. Modern Pellet rifles are capable of firing a pellet at 1000+ fps. But this is a combination BB and Pellet gun and as far as BB rifles goes 750 fps is a good speed for a BB. This is about as fast as they can possibly go. I own 2 of these and find them very entertaining to shoot for fun.
