I recently recieved my new 3/4" QEV from eBay ( $22 including shipping) and I can't decide what to build with it!

What should I build? (please vote!)
Options:
A high powered bolt-action marble rifle,
A bolt action golf ball cannon,
A tennis ball cannon, or
A regular old spud gun

It took me forever to find it. It wasn't actually directly listed on eBay, it was in someones eBay store.

The porting through that is a bit small for a good large-bore cannon so I'd make a nice golf ball cannon.
Marble guns suck! They are just so small and wimpy.

It seems with all your experience you didn't get to see one powerful marble sniper. A marble rifle, with 300 psi of air behind can fly very fast and do a lot of damage.
