Best advice I can give is go try them mate......
Everyone including myself has their own "favourites" so to speak.
Ok so on the HW range the build quality is superb and they're easily tuned and great to shoot, but they're heavy bits of kit compared to the Lightning.
The Lightning is an under rated rifle and can shoot well if you do your part.
So like I said, get down to your local and try them out for size, feel, weight & if possible get a few pellets down the range, then and only then will you know the right one to buy
You might want to try an Air Arms TX200, again, tr
