Everything has an end, only the sausage has two
Having built a Crosman Ratty in .25, I really wouldn't bother with a sub 6fpe in .25

Hi,
Have you done the calculations? http://www.airguns.net/trajectory.php
At around 5ftlbs an 18.3 gr Pylarm would be doing 350 fps, at 15 Yds it would have dropped 3.5" & still be doing 318fps for 4.13 ftlb's.
That seems worthwhile to me, though what for exactly I've no idea.
I think you will have to go the custom route though.
If you do something with this, let us know how you get on?

The only one I know of is the Harper 11 shot PCP, A nice pistol IMO.
Not made any more but do occasionally pop up second hand

thanks for the tips guys...been using .25 cal more recently and just fancied .25 pistol - thats all!
pistols are not a waste of time!!! i find them more challenging to use than rifles - which is all part of the fun i guess!!!

A .25 air pistol would be fantastic !
What great fun it would be lobbing that great lump of lead. Just holding a .25 pellet is kinda nice !
I was going to do a 2540 Crosman, bought the HiPAC and barrel, but abandoned the project and went on to something else.
.25 rifle Falcons were manufactured. I wish I'd bought a Multi .25 FN8 that was for sale a few years ago.
You would need to buy a barrel blank, get it cut to size, recrown, leade polished, probably need a .25 probe making.
I'd like a DAQ 2540 but our 6fpe limit would prevent this!

Some years ago, I put a .25 barrel in my Webley Nemesis which proved most enjoyable, especially when engaging US-style metallic silhouettes. I still have a .30 PDS-modified Brocock revolver, although that was a waste of space.
