...with the higher power means way more responsibility concerning safety. I think each air gun serves a purpose and its up to the owner to figure out what they intend to do with said air gun.
Looking at buying my first pcp. Hardest decision so far is what caliber. I am between the 22 and 25 cal. I will be using mostly for target shooting and a little pest control.
And two fundamental things to keep in mind: .25 needs more air and costs more per shot.
I was looking at the Hatsan Flash, and was going to buy it in .25. Then I saw somewhere that the .25 has a loopy trajectory, whereas the .22 is flatter. I don't know if this holds true for other rifles, but it caused me to change my mind to .22, and that's what I ended up buying. Most of my shooting is going to be small pests at short range, or basement target shooting.
What kind you get Jason?
I ordered an FX Dreamline in .25 but mainly because it comes with the 290cc air tube instead of the 220cc air tube that comes with the .177 and .22. I plan on getting the .22 barrel when available, and figure the larger. Cylinder will get me more shots in the smaller calibers!
