With the big bores, you can spend over a thousand dollars easily.  If you 
live in a densely populated yet rural area, it may be an alternative if you ha
ve physical restrictions that prevent you from operating a bow or resetting a
crossbow.  Areas where there is thick brush and limited fields of view versus
bean fields with several hundred yard shots are also good places for a big bor
e air rifle.
