Newbie Q of .22 vs .25

Just pre-ordered the Gauntlet in .22. I know its a $300 dollar rifle but will primarily be used as a pest gun 99% of the time. Now I see that they will be coming out with a .25 later this year. Tempted to cancel and wait as I have the AF SS and my Marauder in .25. Perhaps I am overthinking this and should keep the .22 for the sparrows etc or go with the .25. The Gauntlet is supposed to get around 50 to 70 shots based upon caliber. The .25 will probably be a bit quieter and fewer shots.
Regardless I think it will be a good addition to the flock but it is tempting just to work around one caliber all the time.
Any thoughts
Thanks
Mike

I am trying to keep my cal. down too. I have a .22 talon ss for plinking and a condor ss in .25 for hunting. I would say stay with the .22 as the power will not be that much different and .22 are cheaper.

From the reviews I would say .22 cal. will be the happy spot for that platform at the time being , who knows when we will see reviews on the .25
