    Thumbs up .177 or .22?

    For the perennially indecisive there's no longer any need to ask the question...

    Just think, the same power required to launch a .22 pellet means it is a woefully underpowered .177....

    It's a shame it's not a bit more classy looking. I would have had to have one.

    Is it just a case of turn a dial to close or open the T.P then remember which aim point to use.

    I have a .22cal BSA Ultra (single shot with low-mounted and very-close-up-re-px'd WTC 1.5-5x20) which I double-load with RWS Superdomes for ratting. A single RWS Superdome shoots at 11ftlb (580-585ft/sec) but two shoot out at 6.5ftlb (450ft/sec) each which is plenty for ratting up to about 20yds.

    Also there is no chance of fitting a sound moderator or two.
