hi guys thanks for all the advice!!In spite of the majority that says carbine,I have settled for the full length,ordered and on its way!!My reason being that the bigger rifle appeals to me and from what said,if I am going to get SOME extra accuracy due to more stabilization over longer distances,then I will be stupid not to go with it(?). Onto the tuning!!If i would to fit a kit,can that be done at any gunsmith?And can the rifle handle the extra power without compensating on something else?

I'll be using it as is,no tuning done to it.I'm not aware of any tuning done here unless someone can suggest a tuning kit i can order from overseas! Weihrauch advertise it as a 12ft/lb,I think.so by what said it should not be a problem then what length.Think i'll be going for the full lenth then.

Had a look at both over the weekend and shot with them-to me it is a coin flip,since both are really nice in the their hold and weight distribution.Here in south africa i'll be shooting halve the time in open grassland and halve the time in some sort of thicket(no hide hunting),so maybe a longer barrel will be more practical for the longer shot??Point taken on the handling with the shorter one. i have seen in the UK mags that almost everyone is shooting/hunting with super short guns(PCP's)-could that short barrel really apply enough stabilization for the pellet to gain a flat trajectory to ta

thanks for the replies. So far points scored for each length!!Going to have a look at both the weekend,hopefully i'll get some clarity on it.any further recommendations on lengths of barrels will be welcome.keep them coming plz!!
