Great shooting Richie, and thanks for the share! I can't get enough of these LCS SK19 videos.. 
I've been keeping tabs on these rifles from the beginning, and really hope to get my paws on one sooner than later.
I exclusively shoot .22 cal, so, it was extra cool to see that you went with the .22 cal option too.. 
Very impressive! Out to 100 yards, those JSB ReDesigned pellets really seemed to find their mark.

With something like this, I'm still a bit torn.. 
Go with .22 since the ammo is sooo cheap, and we know we'll just plow through tins like there's no tomorrow.. 
[But inevitably have to deal with stay shots due to wind - And I've noticed it's almost always windy now where I am ]
Or 
Go with .25 since they seem to buck the wind effects a bit better as well as hit a bit harder.. Ah, choices choices..

From what I have heard the .25 and .30 are supposed to shoot better in the wind BUT...I will stick with .22. The caliber had proven to be accurate and their seems to be more choices of ammo and it's cheaper to shoot and you get more shots per fill. If I do my part as well as my rifle, I have no regrets shooting my .22 against the .25 or the .30 caliber's. The fact that a .25 or .30 will hit harder can't be argued, but a miss in any caliber is still a miss. ANY caliber you choose with the right shooter, rifle, and ammo will perform. Get what you want...and practice.

Great shooting! What pellets and what speed? Got some more ideas from Yo but the more the merrier as far as I am concerned. I am lucky to get 1.5 inch groups at 100 yards. Tried lots of pellets form 700s to 1000fps still that is the best it does.

1.5 groups at 100 yards consistently is great shooting with ANY air rifle in a real world. I'm pushing the JSB redesigned around 950. Some times shooting outside at 100 with our swirling Missouri winds, 3 or 4 inch groups are common and that's just the way it is. Don't get to hung up on guys always posting their sub MOA groups @ 100. If you have been around shooters very long...you will get my drift.

Right on man, and yup. That pretty much mirrors what I've come to find out also.
[This is the 1st I've heard of their .30 cal option though. I was only aware of the .22 and .25 til' now] Nice! 
In the end, I'm still thinking the same thing as you, and will 99.9% be going with the .22

Yo, the very 1st thing I did was look for info on caliber changes.. 
I hoped there'd be a way to go from .22 to .25 and back w/ a few of the usual components,
but I couldn't find anything on it.. Getting a gun in both calibers is definitely not possible, 
so I'm still a bit torn. That 0.1% chance of getting on in .25 cal is still holding me back.
And it's for the exact reason you mentioned.. [I'm way too picky about accuracy/precision]
25+ years of airgunning and the majority was almost exclusively .22 cal. 
My .25 cal stint was very short lived, and still trying to get rid of two .25 cal rifles..

But Then There's This One..
As as impulse buyer, I've showed myself unimaginable self-restraint. lol
