lol.....its a matter of preference. i prefer a .22, i tend to like the heavier pellets my .22 disco can use.
the trade off in my book is the flatter trajectory and higher fps  the .177 offers. in both cases shot placement will be a key factor............

Get the .22 for hunting, you'll be glad you did.  

As for barrels, you can order them from Crosman for something like $24 bucks  :)

Hi Rangerfs,
         Your wife may be different than mine, but I'm still here.  Recently I bought a Discovery with the pump in .22, and I'm very pleased with it.
