I would prefer a .22 as the pellets are available off the shelf at farm n fleet...
John...I don't know if I'd limit myself to the "off the shelf" pellets you can buy at the big box stores unless they're accurate enough. My new Benjamin pistol/carbine won't keep any of the Crosman premiers within a two inch circle at just ten yards. Predator polymags do one ragged hole at 25.
If you're lucky, the cheap pellets will work, but once you find the pellet/pellets your gun likes, you'll likely stockpile a few tins...
