25 cal airgun?

[Wanttohuntmore]

Anyone have one or use one?  I don't know why but I keep wanting to buy one.  Seems like they would really work for small game within the outlying city areas.  I have a high power Beeman 22 airgun, which I think would work, but for some reason I have magnumitus, feeling a 25 would be better!  Can't help myself, it's a disease!

Old ? without an answer.  I have a 25.  The .25 hits a lot harder than a .22.  Airgun power is kind of like shotgun pellets.  They're all moving about the same speed so it's the weight of the pellet that makes a difference.  Once you step up to a 25 caliber you can fliing 35 grain pellets up to 1,000 fps.  It's almost like shooting standard velocity 22 long rifles. 
Twenty-two caliber pellets weigh about half what 25's and twice what a .177 pellet weighs.

my buddy has a custom 26 cal pellet gun, its pretty wicked. fastest shooting pellet gun on the market. has a silencer on it. without the silencer it sounds like a 22 going off. with the silencer it sounds like a red rider spring gun.
