Buying second rifle

[Rav 0]

Last yr I bought a daystate huntsman in .22 but haven't really got on with it have always shot a .177 so thinking of getting a second rifle in .177 always fancied a rapid 7 mk2. Any suggestions on what rifle to get??? Was also thinking hw100 but iam a lefty an the dont do it in l/h action

[Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701]

the hw100 thumbhole stock is ambi and apparently the cocking wouldnt be too awkward for us leftys. im getting one in a few months

 

i had a left handed (stock and bolt) air arms S410 K and that was a really nice rifle.

 

all the best with your choices, hope this helps

I adore my BSA ultra .177! it has a central cocking system that would work either way and is avalible with l/h stocks

Thanks for the response skot. The only thing Bugging me about the hw100 is that If I miss a shot I will have to take crosshairs off target to reload not really a problem if iam using a bipod but if iam standing up I think it could be a problem If action was on the left there wud be no question hw100 all the way. Hope I haven't put u off mind

Bernard I've shot a ultra sum time ago and I didn't really get on with the rifle so that's out I the question really

No I haven't tried the mk3 Chris I will look into it but i think after seeing that rapid mk2 of daz It wud have to be pretty special to top that

No mate it was in a Standard left hand stock, But wanted a CS800 Left hand thumbhole Skeleton MFR stock so i could put the Smaller 280 cc

buddy bottle on, And that's another good reason to get a Rapid MK 2 it can use the 200, 280,400, 500cc buddy bottles.

So You can Change to a custom stock if You wish of a MFR,TTRI or any other Rapid Derivative Model as they are all the same Block.

 

atvb Daz 7.
