Our choice was .22 because that's what I have experience of, and .177 as reviews raved about greater velocity and flatter trajectory. We also wanted a gun that would do less structural damage when ratting in the barns.
I am disappointed with .177 it seems very much inferior....but we'll reconsider after I've gotten the thing to shoot straight.

Hi BP
Are you using the Defiants in .177 calibre or just .22?
The systematic problem I am reporting is that .177 calibre is seemingly more prone to damage than .22 and that in particular the Gamo Pro-Hunter .177 ( domed) pellets are complete junk.
The Gamo Pro Hunters in .22 calibre are performing adequately and are cost effective for us.
