In regard to target shooting it means little so long as the air gun shoots consistently accurate...you're only punching through paper.
In regard to hunting though penetration isn't the true measure for a successful and clean kill. A pellet that passes through the game animal will transfer less energy into that game animal than one that doesn't pass through.
