Here we go again lol

 

Hw97 k, hw 97kt, hw77 (not forgot this time Simon) hw 98. hw80 AA pro sport,AA tx200 hc tx200 full length,to name some of the best

 

Strait out of the box and ready to go (once scope is fitted) AA pro sport and the tx 200 range mint , just put it in the bag along with the pellets and away you go .

 

but i would go 177 iv been a 22 man since i was 8yrs of age and just changed to 177 there unbelievable and accurate as feck

i would go along with mac on the 177 but look at a 95k with a silencer, a tuned one (easy diy) is smooth quiet and accurate

Tx200 you wont go wrong

Gonna mix it up a bit here but have a look and go of the Walther LGU. Bang on shot cycle and smoother than a babies arse. Real contender against the HW and AA equivalents.

Depends what you mean by for work

Full time pest controller, mainly rabbits and feral pigeons.

Your a pest controller and aren't using a HW100?!?

[treecreeper 1,136]

I agree with rez, your after numbers and carrying it around so you want the lightest, quietest and acurate gun you can get, which won't be a springer.

I allready have a falcon pcp, and a theoban 20 cal, to much hassle when you just need to pick it up to do a job. dont get me wrong, the theoban is a awsome bit of kit, i am just about to set off to Blackpool air rifles to have a look at wat they have in,

 

cheers

Get a 100 and you won't need anything else if your job is paramount. If you need something to knock down power, be light and accurate, I'd go for the 95 in 22 mate. Mod up front, sound as you like.

hw80 or a hw95 bud, break barrel and won't go wrong for me it would be the hw80
