    1st rifle was .177 and that was 30 years ago (almost ), an HW80.

    I've had 2 .22's (a Superstar & a Brum Longbow) - lovely guns but no longer in the cabinet.

    I've had .20 (a Theoben Evo) - great calibre but limited pellet choice.

    All that's left are .177's because I prefer that calibre if for no other reason than it's cheaper for a tin of 500. There's many other reasons but I'm not going to regurgitate the same reasons that have already been posted by others.

    .177's the bizznizz, the shizzle & the cat's mammaries - .22's for men with issues in the trouser department

    I have only ever owned .22 cal rifles. I have tried .177, but couldn't get on with it. Would like to try a .20 sometime though.

    Would love to mate. Only getting an FAC in my situation would be more trouble that it's worth.

    After shooting .22 and .177 I've have come to the conclusion that only girls shoot .177

    I've shot .22 and they just seem to suit me best.

    So because I have a motorbike and shoot a .22 I'm the coolest here...
