   Hello fellow air gunners well what can I say - I found something to enjoy and take the stress away in a good healthy way. 
Grew up in South Africa and did the nine yards of military Service.

Wife has been 'Anti Gun' since day 1 - but hey you cant take the bush spirit and the hunt out of the blood. So 15 years in this great country and i decided to buy a pellet gun about 6 months ago. A Diana 21 - little baby of a thing and love it more than the Mrs (not)

I started looking at PCP's a few months back and I got to tell you I am blown away with the technology and online videos.

So Ron at a well known place in Auckland sold me a AA S510 Extra 22 caliber - and Man what an incredible piece of machinery. Sighted at 50 meters and getting direct hits at 80 -100m - Got the new Q-tec suppressor and a really good bipod. Totally stoked with this.

So now I am after a field rifle and looking at the FX Wildcat but cant decide on 22 or 25

	Gday! Looks like you've got the air gun bug. I have no experience with .25, but like the idea of the wild cat. What are you hunting? I would guess it's a bit more wallop vs flatter trajectory. Keep us informed, nothing like watching guns get bought.

	hello and welcome, I would also say you have the bug. it is easy to get and very hard to get rid of! I would go for the .25, you already have .22 :)
