[THE POACHER 13]

lads im wanting to buy a air rifle just for rabbits and crows ive got a small budget of 150 quid wat you reccomend any info would be much appreciated

[matt_hooks 188]

A second hand springer with a cheap telescopic sight would work fine on that budget. The Weirach's seem popular and I've always enjoyed shooting them.

 

I'd go for .22, but others will tell you to go for .177. Horses for courses that one.

 

Have a look through the "for sale" section at the bottom of the forum home page, there's often stuf there.

Sounds like your on the market for a good springer with that budget, do you have any makes in mind?

dont no if its of any interest to you but i have a cometa 300 with 4x40 scope and silencer, good condision, not long had a new spring and seals.

 

its in 177 cal. if ya intrested ill get it cronod for you as i did it when the spring was fitted but cant rember what the power was with witch pellets. she is close to the limet at about 11.2 i think. but will test her for you if required.

Bsa or weirach good for part also, weirach maybe a little heavy, but last forever.

[Ron Weasley 83]

I'd look out for a second hand Weihrauch HW95K or BSA Lightning for that money. Shouldn't go too far wrong with either rifle.

[hunter1989 91]

hi buddy

 

i would go for a edgar brother mod60 or a second hand mod85xth or maybe a bsa lighting XL

 

good luck finding your rifle

 

keep us updated pal
