i have the .22 and it's been outstanding for ground squirrel control. Windy conditions and 50-100 yards for typical shots are surprisingly predictable and consistent with the .22. I've paired it with the donny moderator and find it fine for close work but the longer shots are better with out the moderator.. Anyway, very impressive rifle. love to try that .25 if it does what I think it might my other air rifles might have to get sold!
