I've been wanting a .22 pellet rifle for a while now. The .177 caliber just lacks the punch that I want to have. I've been looking at the single shot nitro piston rifles lately, for my use a single shot would be good enough.

If I had it to do over, I would probably go to the .25 caliber instead. I'm actually looking at a .30 or .303 caliber as my next upgrade.
I have a friend of mine that just bought the .22 caliber nitro piston model, and it seems quite capable. I didn't care for the trigger, but it seemed accurate and powerful enough to get the job done, and doesn't have the cost of compressor. Hand pumping the PCP's gets old pretty quick!
I find the idea of a 25 caliber air rifle quite interesting, but I'm not sure where I would get one of those.
I still haven't figured why no one has made an airgun that uses the same cylinders as the paintball guns, or perhaps someone does and I'm not aware of it.
The SCBA paintball cylinders can be used to fill the PCP rifles with the right adapters. Different pressure valves I believe, to support the much higher PCP shooting pressures, but I'm no expert. Try https://www.pyramydair.com/ great selection and service.
Thanks, I'll check out that link!
