Looks like it might be an opportunity to get in on a very special rifle.... or two, or ten.... Not my bag, but maybe yours?....

I'd love to have one but just can't get past the cost of .25 pellets.

I think I would rather spend the $$$ on a 56 th with a t06 trigger in .22 and add a vortek pg2...

There are a couple of .25 cal pellets available for about 4 cents each, the H&N Baracuda and Spitzkugel, which when compared to the 3 cents+ for .22 pellets of the same type, isn't that pricey, really.

Of course, the bigger question is- how well will these .25 cal Diana's actually shoot? There certainly seems to be a price premium on them.

I suspect the power plant does not have the volume to really make the .25 that much of a benefit. I noticed the publish velocity numbers are somewhat low. But that is a lot of lead to put on a target. I also like the large number of pellets available in .22 makes it easier to find that one that works best in your gun.

a .25 would be so nice to have... but not for me at this time.
