My Sightron scope came in (thanks Centercut!). She's nice; just what the doctor ordered; nice and light. And you're right, Centercut; the optics are great! All my other implements of destruction are coming tomorrow, so I will be able to set 'er up right and maybe get some actual shooting done

Good looking WC, are those the FX no limit rings? Looking forward to hearing how it shoots. Have fun! And I agree, Black is the new Walnut! Or, as Wesley Snipes said in Passenger 57, "Always Bet on Black"

Great looking setup there! I just got a wildcat also, mine is .22. Loving it so far and absolutely love these FX synthetic stocks. I'd choose the synthetic over their walnut stock any day.

Yes, Centercut; those are indeed FX No-Limits mounts (11mm dovetail, 1" tube). I am itchin' to get 'er out in the field, as well!"Centercut"Good looking WC, are those the FX no limit rings?

I damn near went with the .22. More compact and lighter with an insane shot count! Yeah, I went with the uber-practical tactical look; this will be an exclusively hunting rifle.

Beautiful.. Booth of them!! . just a question as to why you went with the 25 cal? Accuracy, varmints, etc? Thanks, Mark

I also have a question for you .I own the WC in 22cal. Can I switch to a 25 cal and other than changing barrels would I need to change enything eles? Also where would I find a 25 barrel?Thanks in advance. Ron

Well, I've owned a .22 (Benjamin Marauder), another .25 (Daystate Pulsar), a .30 (FX Impact), and a .357 (RAW HM 1000x). For small game, I found the .25 cal. in a bullpup to be the best all-round rifle. The FX Wildcat .25 is uber-accurate, has plenty of power, a high shot count, and is light and compact.

To my understanding, the Wildcat is not designed to accommodate interchangeable barrels. You would have to buy a .25 cal. WC. I would ask a dealer.

Ernest Rowe added a .25 barrel onto a wildcat to make a ".25 compact" but I'm not sure if it was a "bolt on" mod. He'd be the guy to ask though, he may be able to shorten a .25 cal smooth twist barrel to the same length as a .22 and then all you should need is a new probe. Also it would take some internal work to get the power up and the shot count would suffer.
All depends how far you're willing to go I guess.

This is America; the only factors limiting the possibilities are your imagination and the contents of your wallet.

So I'm thinking it would be easier to sell the 22 and just buy a 25 cal. Thanks for the replies

Definately, Yote; I'm not a fan of modifying engineered systems. You're just asking for trouble.
