Bet you have note pads and drawings of different trajectories and either aim points or adjustments on scope for every rig.
Carrying all that kit sounds slow, laborious and tedious.
I take my rifle, and I know every adjustment as its all I use. Like instinct or auto pilot. By the time you set yourself up, get comfy, range the quarry, adjust or settle with an aim point Id have shot half a dozen rabbits. What do you do when your quarry moves, range again and again and again, or if you have a .22 or .25 and quarry goes out to 40m+.
.177 out to 50-55 is all ya need, whether it be airgun quarry or FT/HFT, it does it all and well. Runners with a .177, ya missing a vital period, bigger pellet and more power doesn't help, you still missed a vital, = wounded animal. Maybe not for long but still suffering. Shame we aren't closer to each other, then I could show you first hand how clinical my rig is, like I have done many times before.
Tools should go .177, .22LR or .17HMR, .243.
It's not coming across that way at all What an odd statement, they don't fly flat or hit hard

You seem intent on derailing this thread

Every calibre has it's own merits yet you can't see pass your own point of view which is very narrow @ only .177
