First outing with my new-to-me Cricket in .25 courtesy of Papy_Yosh. 5 up, 5 pellets, 5 down. All 10-30 yd shots from a ground blind near a deer feeder using JSB 25.39s @ about 48fpe.

Opted for body shots on a couple that were really close. This thing is a tack driver, and the .25s put these squirrels down hard and fast! May never hunt with a .177 or .22 again, unless I end up doing some ratting.

Lol yeah got the 25 cal cherry popped. Before I sold my gauntlet in 25 I modified it to the 9s and first tree rat ninja was at 65 yards through the shoulder with a clean pass through with the 25 gr jsb at 950 fps. It ran up the tree for 2 feet then feel like a brick. The next one was the priest 2 in 25 pushing the same fps at 80 yards headshot and I was in love. Now I am waiting for the nee prophet I really like the side lever system.
