I was looking around at getting a small pistol for some plinking-type fun, and the local shop is selling the Beretta Bobcat .25 model for $199.
A lot of the reviews about them debate the merits of the .25 caliber, and I understand it is slower/slightly larger than a .22. But can this gun be a fun companion for the occasional trip to the range, or shooting bottles/cans out back?
I know that the .25 ammo is more expensive than a .22, but how bad is it? And price-wise, how does it compare to the .32 round?
And would the Beretta Tomcat .32 be a better plinker choice? They are selling the Tomcat for $269, so for the extra $70, is it worth it?
