mark williams 7,550 Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Hi mate, The hw 100 range is outstanding (and the best by far imho) but if you are sticking with BSA then in my humble opinion - the BSA Ultra in .177 . atb 3 Quote Link to post

Plummerterrier 291 Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Have a daystate harrier in .177 great wee gun Quote Link to post
Pelletpower 203 Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 BSA r-10 or super10 bluprintinted. A tench reg in the r10 is a must! Both fantastic rifles... If it where me thouh....I'd get a hw100kt superb quality and superb accuracy to boot. Quote Link to post
j j m 6,536 Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 super ten is a good gun Quote Link to post
trigger2 3,137 Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 my mate shoots a bsa ultra in 177 and to be fare its a nice little gun shoots well. i have a hw100kt in 177 now i am use to it i would pick it over the ultra any day. Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Problem with the Ultra is the poor shot count, especially if you take up tin rabbit shooting (HFT). It may not have enough air to get round the course! The Scorpion is very similar (if buying the SE versions) but has a much better shot count. Quote Link to post
Rez 4,957 Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Best try all of the above. Its all preference man. Any PCP around the 500 mark is gonna do the job you ask of it. 1 Quote Link to post
jcs 3 Posted May 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Thanks guys for the great views but I forgot to mention I want sumat I don't have mess I want whats great straight out the box please 1 Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 HW100, Daystate (usually, there have been a few problems reported of late with Regals). Quote Link to post
villaman 9,983 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 (edited) I have a Hw100kt in .22 and just picked one up in .177 all so have a ultra ,the ultra will match any top price Daystate pellet for pellet any day of the weekl . Had a Daystate reagel the worst gun I have had by a mile , in fact got my money back on the pile of crap and got the HW100kt.177. On the BSA forum some body has just one a hft comp with a BSA Ultra .177 ,so enough shots to do a hft course . They are even better with reg in them from XTX AIR If you can go afford a HW100 go for that , IMHO these are the best guns around in ether KT , KS , T , S , I would not go for the FSB one though Edited May 3, 2014 by villaman Quote Link to post
jcs 3 Posted May 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 I'd like to stick to bsa as there nice looking guns an at good prices an the r10 gets great shot count tho I do like look of the hw100 it's abit of a head spinner. But al your info is great Quote Link to post
grockle73 1 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 Ultra 177 regged up is extremely hard to beat , fantastic rifle. Make it even better with regulator either done for you, or a Rob Laine design reg that you fit yourself. Perfection! Quote Link to post
