Not really when viewed by the numbers who choose to shoot .177 cal. Add to that those who decide on .22.
Potentially, the only cal .20 can claim to worry would be .25 and sub 12 FPE thats a close range ratter or barn basher.
.20 simply didnt catch on. Makers dont make and pellet producers dont support it.
Ultra lights and ultra heavies in .177 and .22 together will match the claimed benefits of the .20 cal ethis. It just doesnt past muster and is a poor choice in a sub 12 rifle.
That said, its.a free country. If you want to shoot .20 then crack on. But the truth is, the .20 cal didnt get made by the makers. The users didnt use it and the pellet market is significantly less than that offered by the main players.
It would be interesting to see trade figures as to how many .20 cals are sold compared to .177 and .22 and even .25 in non fac guise..... the compromise cal is just that, an undersupported theoretical advantag3 that doesnt actually exist.
In a battle of wits I refuse to engage with an unarmed person.
To one shot one kill, you need to seek the S. Kill only comes from Skill
