What caliber do you use most often

[JimD]

I said 22 but that is partially because my P35-22 is my most accurate rifle so it is somewhat more "fun" to shoot targets with. My P35-177 gets a lot of use too since I got it because the ammo is cheaper and it is also accurate and it is a little quieter. But this time last year I just had the Prod and two 25s and I was using the P35-25 most of the time. Before that it was only the Prod so I shot what I had. There were also about six months before I got my P35-25 when the Avenger was new and I was trying all sorts of things with it so it was the most used.

So it depends is my real answer but right now it is the P35-22. They are all fun. It's great to have choices.

I may get a .177 for plinking one day, but I primarily use .22 for cheap fun plinking and also small game hunting if needed. But I do also love shooting .30 though.

 

[RAMJET66]

22 cal only, =Fat fingers & aging eyes , & too cheap to buy larger calibers..

 

[Beer Nap]

.177 pistol inside because it's just fun and little chance of a ricochet killing my flat screen. I have had a few bounce backs land in my lap lol.

Being most of my AG shooting is monthly FT events ... Shoots between are GP's etc ... with practice and testing prior the .20's by far are shot the most by QUANTITY of pellets shot.
Hunting & Plinking otherwise a .177 / .22 split at 90% or so between them, the .30 cal fills the gap. Tho none getting close to equaling that bastard .20 caliber

 

[EdinGa]

It's not even close for me. I try to plink as often as possible and .177s end up in my hands the most. Having several sweetgum trees on my property makes plinking a lot more interesting.

I've three Hubens, one in .177, .22 and .25. I use the .177 8 times out of 10. For my use, pesting, plinking and punching paper the .177 is adequate, cheaper too.

.25 for pellets and slugs - best of both worlds imo and the mid-30 to 40gr slugs shoot great and use less air than .22 offerings of the same weight range and give up minimal BC advantage.

.22 for slugs only unless I have to use .22 pellets--but who wants to sort those little guys or deal with crushed skirts of MRDs.

.30 when I just want to pound some pests, 30 hades for 75y and under pesting?? Yes and please, bring on the hole makers.

25 now. Gradually moving way from the 22 and not intentionally.
I prefer the 25 cal pellets for hunting and have started tinkering with 25 cal slugs. So far? Nothing to dislike.

 

[crazyhorse]

.22 mostly then .20 and .177 and some .25.

 

[Windmill01]

I own four springers, all 22 cal.

 

[Nomadic Pirate 66]

I only have guns in .25 .30 and .357........ latelly I basically only shoot .357

 

[Trucker3573]

22 as it seems the most versatile vs price. Can drop all the way down to 13 grain and all the way up to 25 although I never do as I have a 25 cal airgun as well. The light 22 stuff is pushed enough by slight winds so I can only imagine what 177 would be so I have never bothered. I love .25 but just don’t really need it when plinking in the yard which is most of my shooting. I will probably never bother with 30 cal. If I need near 100 ft/b 22 rimfire is way cheaper. 35-50 cal is just a powder burners job in my opinion. They aren’t target shooters as it’s way too much air for too few shots. If I’m strictly hunting with said airgun I might as well use a powder gun.

 

[davelarson]

Now mostly .177 in my RedWolf, but following closely is .20 in my Rapid.
They are about the same in accuracy, but the RedWolf is more versatile and I shoot it far more than any other rifle I own.
Indoors in the winter I’m shooting .177 and .22 more in pistols and springers.

 

[drpietrzak]

All I have is .177 and thus far I am good with it.

 

[shaggymatt]

Another vote for 22 here, the squirrels don't agree with my choice.

 

[rcarlisle]

All .177 all the time.

 

[HeyU]

I can't choose, .177 and 22,, it's a toss up.I go back and forth and may shoot both calibers that day.But I am planning to expand my small collection with a .177 PCP.

 

[Nsboost]

.25

Why? Because I feel like it's a good round of energy and air efficiency.

With the smaller diameter of .22, I feel like it uses more air for similar energy/bc (maybe because the .25 has a larger surface area for air to push). The .30 projectiles are heavier so any advantage the larger surface area is gone as it takes more air to get the weight going. So ime I get the best shot count from .25. That's Just my theory/reasoning though. I love .25 for hunting

 

[Jasonmc]

My go to is the 22... Here lately I've been shooting a 177 more and more though.. but my favorite round is the 22...
