    Used to be all .22 but the last 20 years have been .177 both target and hunting.

    In general, .177 for everything at 12 ftlb. When I started out in pest control I did think I would want .25 for rats at close range with nv, but .177 seems to do that job just fine.

    Voted for .177" calibre.
    There was a rule change in 2016. Any calibre larger than .177" now requires a firearms licence.

    I voted for .177 based on the question posed in the poll. These days most of my air rifle shooting is either on my home range which a tad over 20 yards or at my club which is 25 yards. Pest control, when I do any, is .22 so usage is maybe 95% .177 and 5% .22.

    This pole may be more valid if the it included .20" and .25" ?

    I can change it to include them if the OP wishes ?





    All the best Mick
