What is your favorite caliber

.22 is the best all rounder for me, also shoot .25 and 177, they all have their place.

for me 25 is the way to go. hits hard out to about 100 yards 

I have used all calibers, but I have arrived at the opinion that my .25 caliber is my favorite for all airgun uses. 

I have .177, .22 and .25. Haven't gotten to the bigger calibers yet, so can't speak to .30 and up. I'll rule out the .177 to start. Too light.

Like others stated, it depends on the use; however, if I had to choose one caliber and couldn't ever have another gun, probably go with .22. In the right gun it's accurate to 100 yards with upwards of 30 fpe, yet can be tuned down to 12 fpe for indoor or tight spaces. I have a .25, but it's just too much for tight areas, it really needs a backdrop.

.22 wins in economy as well. Pellets are 1/3 less cost than .25 and more economical on air usage.

as always, my opinion is worth what you paid for it. Take it for what it is, my opinion.

.22 is all I use for all my varmint work. 

Shooting with a FX Crown and FX Impact, .25 all day. Nothing stands a chance. It’s my favorite caliber. 

I switched from .22 to .25 about 3 years ago. Really like what its does on pests,especially past 50 yds. Would I go back to .22? I'd like to test out a longer barrel with JSB Redesigned .22 25 gr @940 fps someday

.177

impossible question for me. if I want to shoot cheep all day for the cost of a copula of tins of .22 pellet. the .22 slugs are amazingly accurate and way cheaper than other cal.

if its windy or I need more energy its the .25 slug. If I want a very satisfying thump on steel its .30

.22 cal with 34gr slug and slug liner and its lights out!

Favorite caliber is the caliber that is the beat caliber for what I want to do. 


back yard, 177 all day

to 80 yards .22 pellets

to 150 yards .22 slugs 

to 150 yards On bigger critters then .25 pellet or slugs


sadly I can’t hunt anything bigger so I have no use for anything bigger than 30z

When I can, I like to shoot a lot, so .177 can't be beat there for cheapness. I don't plink at far distances either, so again perfect. I also like it being easy to quiet down.

When it comes to hunting, the only thing I hunt is ground and tree squirrels. For that, I've found my power-tuned .25 hits hard and makes me feel like I'm increasing the chances for a humane kill.

Over time I will become a better shot, I hope, and then I might go down to my .22 and even go down to my .177 for squirrels and see how that does. But for now, the security of having a lot of extra power makes me really dig my .25. Plus it's fun to shoot because it's a really good gun anyway.

So for now I'd have to say my most fun and best for hunting is .25, and best for plinking .177.

"ALL" of the ones that I presently own as we speak, .177, .20, .22, .25 and last but not the least, the .30/7.62 because all of them serve their own specific purpose.

22’s always get shot the most (3 to 1) for me. Have tried all up and including 30.

.20. 

I have 8 rifles in the caliber, 7 springers and a Silver Streak (for now anyway...lol). While most consider the limited choices in pellets a bad thing, I consider it a bonus. There might only be 7 choices currently out there and I have them all. I've never gotten why shooters think they have to have 15-20 or even more choices in pellets in a given caliber and it's usually the lame excuse used why they don't and won't own one. 

Those 7 are the best of the best and at least 3 or 4 shoot well in all 8 of my rifles. FWIW, I do own rifles in .177, .22 and .25 but .20 is my favorite.

.30 all day.

I own condor in .25 & luv the thawk...i also like my .177 break barrel on a lazy weekend.. .177 pellets are fun..available in plenty...come damn cheap with options to choose..wheread .25 are pure excitement..costly & i shoot eungins the most

Biren..
