Which cal would you pick? Brocock Ranger XR 22 or 25 caliber

Looking to buy a Brocock Ranger XR in either 22 or 25 caliber...so what would you pick? I really like 25 cal but if a 22 cal gives me more velocity and a better trajectory then I'll probably go with that. Little more shot count with a 22 than a 25 cal as well.

Also this will be a pest gun for birds (starlings) within 50 yards. I have a Bsa R10 and Daystate Wolverine for longer ranges and bigger game, but I find most of the time I grab a smaller gun for closer ranges. The Ranger XR fits the bill for that.

Your input is appreciated
