    Every calibre has some kind of compromise because we have the 12fpe limit, .20 gives the best across the board compromise as a field/hunting pellet.
    Never the best at any one thing, but also it's never the worst.

    As above, for pure target work .177.

    The .20 is the flattest flying of the three hunting calibres but lacks the weight of the loopier .25. The .22 is just a compromise calibre with the either best or worst parts of the other two depending on how you feel.

    Waste of time ..for me.. as i have .177, .22 and .25 springers and PCP,s to choose from.
    If i had to have only the one gun it would be .177...and it would be my .177 TX200.
