The same gun will shoot "faster" (fps) in a .177 model, because the pellet has less mass. The "power" is the same, wether is has a .177 barrel or a .22 barrel. For furry beasts larger than rats, .22 is better because it pokes a bigger hole. I have a Weirauch HW77, which is a German break barrel, in .22 caliber that I got in England. I upgraded the mainspring to the most powerful I could get my hands on. It will put a .22 clean through a full 2-liter, and well into a yellow-page. I think Beeman sells Weirauchs in the U.S., re-branded, of course.
