Title: Gauntlet.22 vs.25 Accuracy?
Post by: Dbez1 on November 04, 2019, 09:15:49 AM

Does anyone know which caliber Gauntlet is inherently more accurate, or is there any significant difference at all at 50-80 yards?  I suspect the .25 will handle the wind better. Thanks for your input.

I had both a .22 and a .25 Gauntlet, but my backyard range was only 40 yards.  At that distance, the .22 was more accurate than the .25.

Thanks Paul, that’s a start. You said “had”, what did you replace them with?

I sold both to fund an FX Dreamline Classic in .25.  It's an amazing rifle, and extremely accurate.  I regret selling the .22 Gauntlet, it was very accurate also!
