Anyone got a .25 air gun?

[Nath]

I used mine to get this rabbit after work today.


It is only a cheapy but after some fiddling it shoots well and has some smackabillity!

Any one else got a .25?

Hi Nath -

IIRC, rjohns94 has one, or at least did, and was very fond of it for hunting!

[junkbug]

Is that a spring piston style?

Is that a cottontail?

Not yet, but am considering one. Actually, I'm debating the Eun Jin Sumatra 500 CC in 5.5 or 6.35 mm (22 or 25 cal) or a Sam Yang Recluse in 9mm. Any of the above would run around $1,100 plus fill equipment so am still debating at this point.

Is that an FAC version, or your standard 12FPE GB version? In springers I really like my Gamo CFX with GRTIII trigger. It's set up with a custom made front sight base and a rear peep sight. Never have hunted it, though. It's got the punch to hunt with, just don't have any hunting grounds 'round here.

.22 and .177 here. I thought about the .25, but ammunition availibility
and choice pushed me over to the .22. Maybe someday if I have $1K
that I have no other earthly use for.... LOL!


Nice shootin', though. And probably good eatin', too.

PS - Just saw 3 healthy deer stroll by in the back yard. They looked good.
This winter was absolutely brutal, and we are forecast to flirt with zero
Farenheit early next week again. Near record lows for this part of Maine in
late March, and we still have A LOT of snow. maybe more of that next
Wednesday, depending on the storm track. Any deer strolling around now must
be healthy - methinks the winter has already taken those who weren't.

not yet, i have .177, .20, and .22

was thinking of getting one of the new crosman/benjamin pcp rifles in .25

are you guys limited to 12fpe like canada? that would be a bummer. I have a couple that do 20 fpe.

Flint, take a look at this one. Looks like a decent deal on the Marauder in 25 cal...

Yes guys...we are limited to under 12ft/lbs unless we want it on the system and licenced....quite easy for airguns.

I have had a PCP .25. Deadly accurate. No recoil. Hit like the hammer of Thor.

I have a .177 and a a .20. My .20 is my favorite


I have a PCP .452 caliber on build order, from XP just waiting for my number to come up. I considered a .58 caliber but the .45 will do for now. Rated and tested to over 4600psi. Won't be done till next year based on wait. That's okay because the silencer will take 6 months to get too.

wow, that is a good deal for a Marauder - too bad we just moved and have zero extra dinero. I do want one though for sure.

I'm also a fan of .20 cal - have two sheridans. One has the steroid tune - if anyone knows what that is - it gets 20 fpe with 12 pumps.
