That’s going to be a good rig. Don’t remember what the specs were when I first got the vixen but I’m sure they are posted on sites that sell them.

As far as I know in .25 is comes doing 45fpe, this I know firsthand as I just bought one from my buddy and had my hands on it first. Through reading several posts, I have found that without doing any regulator replacements, for the planum, one or doing any kind of crazy modifications, you can get as much as fifty five foot pounds for about a magazine. I can only assume that the .22 can put out 42fpe rather easily.

From experience knowing how well edgar gun barrels shoot slugs and pellets, my next rifle will likely be a compact .177
This U2 600mm .177 is great, and can make 40fpe 20gr going 953fps.

But it's a little loud for shooting mostly from inside the car. Tons of shots though, I was getting about 70-80shots shooting 16gr at 970fps

A Stoeger Bullshark should make at least 20 fpe in 177. My P35 makes 19 and the barrel on the Bullshark is 40mm longer. The stock baffles are pretty quiet and an inexpensive printed moderator will make it even quieter.

My buddy has a xm1 stoeger .25 and it's dead nuts quiet. I've also heard great things in terms of shooting the p35 .177. I'm at the point where I don't want to have to put in work to a lower cost gun to make it run the way it should when higher priced guns already do so. This is more of a commodity as I don't have that much down time to just mess around with guns like I used to.
