I used to shoot cans in my back yard with a Daisy Quicksilver - IIRC it was around 300 fps also... if you use pointed/round pellets it'll go through soda cans, or probably get caught inside steel ones. Might bounce off, might not... it's definitely enough to pierce skin at close range, and remember lead is a toxic substance. If you need more kick out of it, try the Beeman gold colored pellets... they're made of some kind of light weight alloy for higher FPS. From a 177 pellet out of a pistol I'd expect 400 fps, though. 300 has quite an arc to it from across the yard.
