[IAN88]

considering buying a rapid fac in .25 (would prefer daystate but not sure they do this cal ?) is there much difference from .22 really my .22 is putting out 30LBS saw .25 putting out 40+lbs ,i know rimfire is morepowerful but having trouble find land capable of 17hmr upwards ,and tobe honest don,t know if i want that type of shooting .Have concidered fac air upto 80lbs YES i know the rifles are expensive ,and theres the accurancy thing but i like shotguns and airrifles so i would learn to copy with the rifle and allow.cheers lads

.25's drop like a stone but when they hit they hit hard.

Hi Ian, i am a big fan of the .25 calibre i own a sub 12fpe bsa lightning .25 in fac a springer webley patriot.25 at 30fpe

and a mk1 rapid.25 at 50fpe, i use the bsa for ratting , and the patriot and rapid for bunnies etc, Ian this calibre stops a tank

the trauma damage to prey means instant death. In the rapid i use H&N Barracuda pellets at 31grain , the patriot uses H&N FTT pellets. the rapid shoots accurately to 75 yds+ instant knockdown power. no runners or twichers, i must admit i love this calibre

i also own and shoot all the other calibres as well. Give it a go you will love it , if you need any help pls pm me always help fellow shooters.

In a FAC i would.. I own two, both psringers with a mv of 850 fps.. Solid hitter..

[Clubshot]

I own a sub 12FP Skan Swift in .25

 

My original Rat Precharge Gun

 

Real Stopper

 

But found over the years other calibres can Stop Rat's just as Well - In the Sub 12FP

 

Especially with the likes of a 21.00 Grain Piledriver in .177

 

Again like .20 - Round Selection is limited

Not forgetting more weight more costs...........

I love my HW80, everyone at the club likes to have a go, especially the kids. I would like an FAC .25, not sure how much choice there is though..
