Ed, I understand ur thinking, but as u have said your shooting is around 30yds, at that distance caliber doesn't make a whole of difference, most of my shooting is out past 40yds and generally at 55 to 60yds, where the heavier .20cal pellets tend to not get blown around by the wind as bad as lighter pellets do! I took 3 of my HW rifles here as of late and shot them all back to back at the same distance, 1 rifle was a .177cal HW35 that shoots a 7.9gn CPHP @ 725fps 2 was my HW95 that shoots a 14.66gn FTT @630fps and my new HW50 .20cal that's shoots a 11.42gn FTT @650fps, the distance was 55yds and they had about the same POI all of them used 2mils of hold over, the difference is when I shoot birds at that range with the .20cal or .22cal they drop as tho struck by lightning no so with the .177cal, and were talking about the guns I have listed here!
You know Guys and Gals,We've had so many posts regarding which caliber is best for Weihrauch Springers ... that it's getting really tired - at least for me. Everyone has different shooting needs/styles ... so we need to be flexible.- One Truth is Weihrauch, generally makes very good .177 caliber barrels - I don't think too many people have gotten a bad shooter. However, I'm sure some have.- My experience shows that .20 caliber can be very good too - I like to push them > 710 FPS.- My (recent barrels) experience has been more mixed, even though I didn't go to the end of the world to find the perfect pellet. However, many shooters have had great success - .No matter what the caliber, sometimes we get an exceptional shooting barrel .If you do ... Hold On to that Baby at a costs - it's likely your favorite gun.Lastly, everyone should shoot the caliber or weight they feel confident in.

Or at least I do, when I shoot my Hatsan. Shooting is 70-80% mental. We search for the best pellet not because it is, but because we think it is.... -Y

Ed, I don't make loto shots, my shots at those distances are spot on the mark, I shoot these distances almost on a daily basis, I have a dirt mound out that far that is full of small rocks the size of a quarter and smaller, I can hit them 99.9% of the time with 1 shot! like its nothing! and I'm leaning out the window only supporting my forend hand on a seal of the window
Ed not to put you down in any manner BUT !! I remember you from the yellow of many years ago and your oring piston seals. That said learning to shoot doping the wind and hold over and under are talents which must be learned. Just putting the crosshairs on the target and squeezing the trigger is not shooting.Very few people know how to shoot well !! Its called marksmanship. It does not come easy. It is a disapline which takes study and years to perfect. Air guns make it even harder to learn because of the limited power. I am an old fart and my eyes are not what they used to be.. I still see quite well but judging distance gets harder everyday.I find that most airgunners like the 177 because it shoots pretty flat compared to other cal. Translation most people never take the time to learn the gun, ammo and learn the variables of what makes a good marksman.This may sound like I am all high and mighty but I am not trying to toot my own horn. It just is what it is. My now long gone granddad taught me how to shoot and he demanded that I do it well. To be honest he took a lot of the fun out of it in a manner but I did learn. To him it was a science and he made me approach it it as such.Today as an old fart who is disabled I shoot to relax and not to brag I am quite good. Not like I used to be but Still it is what I know and love.Today folks are just lazy, "dang" lazy really !! Just a reality of todays world. Long ago I wanted to play guitar and I started taking lessons.. after about ten lessons the teacher asked me how much I practiced.. He did not like my respnse and told me to go home and play the radio... LOL !! Thing was I was too busy shooting.Most here will flame me but to shoot well it must become a passion and it is work !! I had a good teacher and I miss him more with each passing day.as clint would say "a man has got to know his limitations" some never do learn !!Kindlyron
