Hw100 Or Huntsman Regal

[toby63 1,236]

it would have to be hw100 for me but id rather have my rapid lol

[andy97 209]

would rather get a older huntsman or a mk4 which you can pick up now cheapish also a rapid which would be the 2 i would be looking at mk4 or rapid as said accuracy isnt the issue its personal taste

[sureshot.177 49]

I do like the rapids but I'd like to buy new and I don't like the computer on the daystate

[andy97 209]

you can get the mk 4 mate without the computer and you can pick up a new rapid for the money youll spend on either

[sureshot.177 49]

Ohhhh never knew that lol I'll have a look cheers

I have both and it's as villaman says. The HW has been absolutely faultless, totally reliable and with two mags and a silencer.

The Regal has had to be fettled. Paid extra for a (not very good) Airstream mk6 silencer and extra mag.

The Regal looks great and is well made but if I was on a pest control job tomorrow morning I'd grab the HW.

Hi Dan,

There is a thing called "auto` aim" about the HW 100 and basically this means - put the crosshairs on the target and that`s where the pellet will strike (over and over again) this rifles accuracy is unbelievable.

I own the HW 100 kt 177 cal and on a still day I can shoot pigeons by headshots "easily" at 35 yds (and more) - my game bags trebled when I bought this rifle.

 

Get the HW100 in my humble opinion Dan.

By the way mate, I watch the HW 100 "regularly beat" all other rifles at the indoor ranges I go to check my zero and have the craic with my mates, including computerised ones .

but don't get the baby HW100, get the big lad full lenght

[villaman 9,980]

KT or KS all day long ,better balance than full length and I have had both KT and full length and the KT wins hands down IMO :A fantastic all round gun the kt

Years back i went into a hunting shop that i had used for 20 years to buy my first rifle. I knew i would get an honest answer of HW V Daystate. With no hesitation HW came out. He went on to say that 2 out of 3 daystates he sells end up coming back faulty in the first few years. The HW very rarely a few and he sells more HW's.

 

I have never used Daystate but that alone is a big pain in the butt risk on reliability and i really can't see how the Daystate out performs the HW so much that you can dismiss human ability.

 

If you want looks maybe the daystate takes the edge that's if you keep it longer than the factory does but that's it in my view.

Auto Aim " what a croc of shit!" sorry mark but really

[Seamaster 153]

My thoughts too Davy. Great rifle but let's be realistic.

[davyt63 1,845]

at this current moment i have both rifles,HW100 .177 accrate as ,but not for the noodle club arm owners,unless you contact A&MCustomgunsmiths for a light weight cylinder,magazine system in my opinion cant be beaten

 

Daystate Regal accurate as providing you place the pellets correctly,magazine system not the best!

a nice light weight rifle defo for the noodle arms owners club,this rifle is the best looking sporting rifle that Daystate have made "end of"

 

i like both why? because i can

enlighten me Chris

[Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701]

Davy, my hw100kt has auto aim mate! its so well balanced that the cross barely moves at all for 40 yard standing shots.

 

ok so it doesn't really have auto aim,. that was a bit of a joke I have started on here after going hunting with my hw100kt I hardly miss with it and if I do its for very silly reasons!

 

obviously Mark Williams likes reading my hunting threads and knows my sense of humour.

 

I mean really, how the feck can a rifle have auto aim.?! it cant.. but the hw100kt is the closest rifle to having this unavailable feature,.

 

hope this clears that up for you mate.
