VWman 232 Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) Guys, just explain for a new idiot .22 and .177 for hunting. I thought the .177 was for targets ?. I don't want to drop a bollock when I save all my pennies up. Keep me on track, you have done a good job so far. Real nice bigmac, it's good when a plan comes together. I fuss like mad before I buy cos when the money has gone you have a long time to live with mistakes. When I buy I never look back because I have taken the time to make the best choice for me LOL.

Before it all starts there as good as each other in the right hands for hunting be it fur or feather some cant shoot 177 for there life just as some cant shoot 22 its what suits you that counts and yes some rifles are good very good but at the end of the day or night its not the rifle or cal its the shooter behind the rifle that makes the mistakes not the rifle or cal iv try,d 177 and dont like it but ill not bring it down any more as iv seen how good they are in the right hands atvbmac :thumbs: 3 Quote Link to post
treecreeper 1,136 Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) all calibres are capable of hunting, its the calibre of the shooter that counts. .22 transfers energy better so it hits harder but has a loopier trajectory so it makes range estimation more critical and threaded shots harder. all down to which you shoot best. beat me too it mac Edited July 4, 2015 by treecreeper 2 Quote Link to post

Mate ,Just get to know your set up in any of the cal . I shoot in .177 and .22 and both will do the same as each other. Cant see the point of .20 ,when you have a very good heavy pellet in .177 10.4g @ 712-716 fps and a very good light pellet in .22 13.4gr @620-625 fps but that my opinion and many others to 1 Quote Link to post
