ChrisJones 7,975 Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 What's the best pre-charged pneumatic rifle on the market? Quote Link to post
Jordan 1 Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 Air arms s400 .177 or s410 Quote Link to post
F.R. 2 Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 First I've owned and can't believe the accuracy- definitely worth looking at---Webley Spectre .22 (FX Cyclone)- 3 power levels, nice quiet safety, two stage trigger, walnut or synthetic.... Pic from the other day with Kye..all headshots but one rabbit and one prairie dog....some shots out to 70+ yards. Quote Link to post
J Darcy 5,871 Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 falcon fn 12 for ..eerrmm...covert operations, but i love the S410 and S200... Quote Link to post
Guest rothbury ratter Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 I have only owned one. And the Rapid 7 mk1 gets my vote. Quote Link to post
foxy 1 Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 ripley xl9 for me far better than any of the above guns mentioned Quote Link to post
Guest whippet Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 Aye, he asked what's the best rifle. And cracking guns as the S400/S410/S200 are, they're far from the best guns on the market, just good value. The best is probably Ripley. Quote Link to post
Guest baldie Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 One of the best ones i,ve ever shot , was a ripley predator, slide action under the forend, adjustable from 12 to almost 60 ft/lbs, and mag fed, absolutely devastating. Illegal now, it fell foul of the post dunblane semi auto , and pump laws. Every day gun? has to be the mk1 rapid. Quote Link to post

Are they illegal now or is it that they're not allowed to make them any more? :ph34r: Most fun you'll ever have with an air rifle is the Ripley Predator but, for my money, the best pre-charged is the HW100. (still haven't got one! ) Quote Link to post
Guest baldie Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 He certainly doesnt make them anymore Chris, the ones that are out there...well.. they arent registered anywhere are they I remember destroying an old knockdown silhouette at 60 yards with one, 22 grain barracuda,s whack , whack, whack, it eventually rived it out of the ground , by its pins, as i said earlier...devastating tool Quote Link to post

J Darcy 5,871 Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 chris...the hw100 leaked like mad! not good news when you have shelled out some serious coin for a new bit of kit.... they are heavy and the stock is not the best in the world...but they are a decent hunting gun that aside... the mag system is the best i have ever used in my life...

Guest scottywong Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 got a aa410 and its been faultless .have put thousands of pellets threough it and never had a problem.its better value than the hw 100 and a dam site better looking(if thats a worry)best thing about mine is that i have painted the stock so dont have to worry about scratching or denting it as i just repaint it!! makes it a lot easier to use as you dont worry. scotty(lots of them second hand about aswell) Quote Link to post
Guest Duzabit Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 For me it's the AA S200, with the 10 shot mag no problems yet, great value for money. Duz Quote Link to post
Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 Rapid 7 mk 1 is the dogs wotsits for me ,with the added bonus that its easy to whack up way beyond 12ft/sec.On a firearms of course!. Quote Link to post
