Been looking at gamo phox and smk pr900 w 

[tomburras 2,730]

I have a stormrider same gun as pr900w its great to mess with as a plinker very accurate with the altaros reg deffo suitable for hunting as standard but 36 shots per fill great if you have a pump. but I'd go for a phox instead I never used one but heared they are good. I have a np02 too not expensive and a great gun good shot count its been great very accurate I paid £330 maybe worth looking at too.

Check the sales section on AGF. There was 2 GX 40s with full kit for well under £300. Same workings as the Phox and Coyote.

There's also a second hand .22 NP02 with scope, mod and case in kirklees guns at the moment for £285

PCP every day of the week.  You should find an older BSA Ultra or Air Arms s200 in your budget, have a chat with John at Lock Stock and Barrel on Holme Lane as he gets loads of s/h guns in.
