Thoughts on .177 vs .22 air rifles

[Lightspeed]

For the cost of a second .22 air gun, even a cheap one, plus a couple of thousand pellets, you could purchase around 10,000 .177 pellets.

How long would it take to reshape 10,000 .22 pellets? And even if you could do so, their accuracy would be rubbish in comparison to professionally moulded ones.

Using at a rate of 15 shots per day, that would support almost two years hunting.

I'm with Devonian on this. Buy extra pellets now and cache them ( low cost .177s can be had for around £10 / 1000

We have both .177 and .22 rifles. Different guns for different purposes. Two of them are almost identical to look at on first glance. Your idea about different camo patterns is a good one.
