However, one of the very real advantages with the .22, in addition to the ease of handling observations pointed out above, is that with the better efficiency, springers generally exhibit a more gentle firing cycle, somewhat mitigating the flatter trajectory advantages of the .177, as Jon Budd has often pointed out. But then, how do the scores at a HFT shoot compare? But then it's more down to the shooter......round and round we go again......: Shot count with a PCP maybe not so much of an issue anyway, you just have to fill a little more often......
Easier to thread the smaller pellet through the opening ?

narrower thread is easier to thread through the eye of a needle than thicker thread . That's the explanation I was told many years ago
