Tron 173 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 If you have a interest in air rifles and intend to shoot pests then I would respectfully suggest you save up for a few more weeks and buy a better made air rifle which would last much longer than the one you are asking about. I say this because once you start shooting you will soon find out that you will want the best available for what you want to use it for. For a cheap? accurate,non recoiling rifle have a look at the Webley Rebel which is available for about £100.00. 1 Quote Link to post
Lancashire Hunter 22 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 As above you can buy a semi decent bsa webley or even a brand new stoeger for 160-180. The stoeger is a full powerd budget gun and you get rifle and scope for around 160ish not the best but far better then smk crap. Yes you can tune ect a b2 but it wouldnt be worth it. They are really only good for kids shooting at barn doors or clubbing rabbits to death lol. Quote Link to post

As advised, save up £200 or so and look at a nice secondhand weihrauch,bsa or webley. I had a webley xocet 22 springer which was nice, cost 150 quid, scoped will be best part of £200. Enough for rabbits out to 35 yards. Quote Link to post
WhiteRabbit 112 Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 Hi Liam As mentioned, I'd save up and there's even some cracking rifles on here (check the classified section) going next to nothing and from some great people. Don't rush into it too, check out topics on here, check up on what you need to know about hunting... YouTube videos, books and magazines too. Start as free and cheap as you can before spending out hundreds on something you don't know much about: be that hunting or about rifles. White Quote Link to post

For example the Stingray Mark 2 is the Hatsan 55 (if you like .177) or 60 (if you like .22). Now days even the safety catch is in the same place. Quote Link to post
