raptar 48 Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 why is there not much talk about the .20 cal, as it looks good on paper for hunting with sub 12lbs Quote Link to post
pav 481 Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 because villaman doesn't like them but there again he probably has never seen one never mind shot one 1 2 Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,550 Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 The .177 cal, for me, is the most proficient at 12 ft/lbs level by a country mile. atb Mark. 2 Quote Link to post
Rez 4,957 Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 Owning a .20 for a good few years now, like you say on paper it looks a good choice, but in reality it actually acts more like a twenty two to be honest, unless it’s being pushed at some high FPS. Other than stated about the pellet choice, its no better or worse than the others as a calibre, it’s just an option, I suppose, for those that know the other two calibers well and fancy something different. 2 Quote Link to post
.357shooter 1,184 Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 not knocking it as i had a daystate in .20 but if you really want that sort of trajectory by a .177 and put heavy pellets in it.easier caliber to pick up and pass on than the limited .20 that is only wanted by a few in comparison 1 Quote Link to post

ftm 3,357 Posted December 7, 2018 Report Share Posted December 7, 2018 the shoulder behind the gun is more important than calibre choice . Hit your quarry in the right spot and .20 1.77 .22 .25 will do same job ..25 might leave a bit more mess though lol .Pav has a .20 cal rapid and it does the job 2 Quote Link to post
