FAC Spring guns

[Vulpes vulpes 2]

Has anyone owned or had any experience of FAC rated spring guns particularly the HW80 and HW97? What power were they shooting at and did you have any problems with accuracy or excessive recoil/noise? Also what pellets did you find most accurate?

Cant give you direct notes on experience but my very experienced local air gun dealer says the HW80 can be cranked to almost 24ftlb or something and it still is good for it in terms of accuracy etc...

 

Hope better advice follows.

tried a dianna at 18 ft-lbs before, kicked like a fookin mule to be honest and sounded like a friggin grenade when yo pulled the trigger, would much rather stick to my non fac pcp anyday much more accurate
