i have a air arms pro-sport in.22 at the mo and find it really nice, much nicer than the hw77 or the air arms tx200 that i have owned in the past, i bought it S/H with scopes, walnut stock and sling for £375, really smooth to shoot, and very accurate

I have a Weirauch hw which is a good gun paid £200 s/h for it the only prblem with it really is a little heavy, but with the sling to carry it it's really not that bad. I'm looking to buy a second gun and have been to look at a Air Arms tx200 which seemed like a really nice gun to hold just looks a bit potchy to load up? may get a pre charged as a second gun though! best thing to do is go along to a gun shop and have a look at a few and get a feel of what different guns are like to hold! good luck and hope you find the right gun soon.

I have a HW95 and is well acurate and powerful, I am certainly happy with it and you can pick them up for around £200 new.

 

You can see some acuracy shots on a recent post I made at : http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/index...showtopic=55810

i bought a secondhand bsa lightning with a scope an bag for 150

its the best thing iv ever spent such a small amount on considering the price of air rifles

I am always sceptical (big word for a thursday night after a few ciders ) about buying a second hand rifle, you really never know how often its been used, how its been treated, I personaly think if your going to get a springer get it new or second hand from someone you can really trust.

just out of interest are springers as good hunters as pcp. ie powerful and accurate??
