Hw100 Or Huntsman Regal

[sureshot.177 49]

I've been saving and at the end of the month I'd like to purchase one of the above but I can't decide is there any difference in a accuracy as I'll be using it for target shooting

Many thanks in advance

How accurate do you want to be? The HW100 will put pellet on pellet at 30-40 yards and easily group sub 1/2" at 50.

 

You'll look around £700-£750 for the HW100 - best money I ever spent, but I have never used the regal.

I have had a hw100 in the past and me being a twat I sold it I didn't get on with the thumbhole stock that's why I thought daystate as it is a very nice bit of wood and fits me well

I've heard few stories that the hw isn't put together aswell as there used to be

i would go with the huntsmamn mate had both the hw and daystate wasnt to keen on the cocking bolt tbh and find the daystate an all over better gun but its horses for courses with taste but accuracy wise it can outshoot the shooter either one

Awould got with huntsman like andy says hw cocking lever not keen on and and my next pcp will be a huntsman but thy both excellent guns good luck with what ever you pick pal

Are you plinking on your own property or competition FT/HFT shooting? The former, you would be better buying a good quality spring power rifle and a tin of branded pellets; it will take a little effort on your part to learn the required technique to shoot accurate but will be rewarding when you do. The latter, you would be better joining a club and trying other member’s rifles before deciding what suits you best. Don’t forget to budget for air filling accessories if you buy a pre charge!

Thanks guys it's hard I don't suppose there's anymore options out there for the price range

 

I'm lucky enough to have a bottle already

And I really can't shoot springers I have tried

Thanks again dan

Sounds like good advice to me, get down to a local club and try as many different rifles as you can then you can make an informed decision. What suits one pesron does not suite another.

Got both for the money HW 100kt is far the best ,2 mags ,silencer , no power curve and better built . Daystates are over priced and over rated imo

[Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701]

Im with daz39 and villaman on this one.

 

would have my hw100kt over any other precharged air rifle on the market

 

just fukiiiiin love it, its that simple.

[KurtH 74]

HW100KT for me...(or a Bobcat )

 

Unless you want to spend time returning your Daystate to be corrected, which everyone seems to be doing these days

Thanks guys how much is one of those bobcats

It a sexy bit of kit

Thanks guys

[andy97 209]

the huntsman is every bit as good as the weihrauch all this need tinkering with is bull both will outshoot the shooter you do get a few goodies more with the 100 but i just didnt like it

[Daz39 962]

to be fair, the issue with asking a question "A v B" is you will have owners and lovers of both A and B. You'll never really move forward in YOUR choice until you pick them up and shoot them!!

 

Unless "A" is an SMK then everyone loves "B".

Most Daystates regal have gone out of the factory with one issue or another ,mine stiff bolt and under powered and a few other have had the same .

Seamaster on this forum as had problems . For the money you pay for this gun it should not happen
