best rifles.

hi all,

if you could have one gun (PCP and Spring) from each of the following makes below which would you choose?

Air Arms

BSA

Weirhauch

For example (here mine)

Air Arms: air arms s510 carbine + air arms prosport

BSA: BSA r10 + bsa supersport

weirhauch: hw100sk + hw77k

[redeye jedi 39]

if i could only have one airgun then it'd have to be the HW100.

[aaronpigeonplucker 32]

me too

I don't do PCPs so here is my wish list.

 

Air Arms-Camargue

BSA-Gold star

Weihrauch-HW35E

 

That surprised you all! The Camargue is a lovely looking side lever discontinued by air arms decades ago. The BSA gold star is an multi-shot under lever. The HW35E is a luxury version of the HW35 also out of print as it were. I much prefer springers and these older springers were made to be top of the range instead of just something to use until you can afford a PCP. I like the HW57 I use now but if one of these came up in good condition my 57 would get traded in, it's just a tool wheres these are classics.

My choice is a BSA R10 and a Weihrauch HW97KT tuned by Tony Wall of SFS.

zini,

how is the weihrauch hw97k ,because i have a webley raider10 and having a few problems with it,been thinking of going back to spring powered air rifles

[zini 1,939]

Mooney the HW97KT the newist HW is the dogs under hangers mate.

 

Ive been playing with one that a English pal of mine as at the gun club.

 

I would get one before any other springer and thats for sure.

 

His isnt tuned and shoots like a dream.

 

Get it tuned from SFS and you will have a rifle like no other.

My choice would be, springer HW77 in .22 because I like its simplicity, nothing to go wrong. And my PCP choice is the ledgendry HW100k in .22

[mooney1 120]

mine would be a wiehrauch hw100 , air arms pro sport and a wiehrauch hw97k

[andyfr1968 772]

I tried the HW100 but it just didn't feel 'right' for me. Lovely gun, to be sure (thanks, Davy), but I prefered the AA410 as it just fitted and felt perfect for me.

 

I guess I'm lucky as I'm very happy with what I've got. Love my old HW90 but mainly use the 410. That said, I replaced an old love from many years ago when I got my hands on another Diana 52 last year (.177).

 

I've taken that out a good few times over the past few weeks and I'd forgoten what a nice tool it is.

 

I watched Zini's springer post and yeah, a good springer shot well is still a very useful tool.

 

Cheers.
