hi there i dont have any experience in s10 but i have a hw100 carbine and the acuracy is great i also rate this rifle very highly as a hunting tool aswel as the occasional target fun.

 

hope this helps i know a few guys on here use the super10 and will give you better answers regarding that gun

 

 

regards john

i think it will be sound mate just go for it. the gun is only as accurate as the shooter

try and handle a few different guns before you buy, i have never had one, always fancied one but on my last shopping trip i ended up with a HW100 and to be fair its the best airgun i have, only one i am using at the moment

one thing to consider is the huge air cylinder / shot capacity you will have to get it topped up using a dive bottle pr buy one

anyways your choice

i used my mates superten a while back and the only fault i could find was i couldnt reach the safety that well!

other than that its a cracking gun!

Good piece of kit.

 

I have had one for 5yrs and the only time its been back to BSA is for servicing.

 

Has its pros and cons as i would guess many airguns have but it is a handy tool.

 

Accurate and consistent when you find the flavour of pellets it likes, mine prefers accupell only. They are good for shooting from a motor due to their size and are reasonably ballanced.

 

The problem with the barrel size is that it is loud and the standard silencer from BSA is shite, so an upgrade is a must. A new silencer will not make it silent though. A bullbarrel may be the better option. You would have to compare the two.

The magazines arent much cop either and if you use it regularly ( 3-4 times a week ) they soon wear and become inconsistent.

 

Theres a couple of pros & cons imho that i have found, others may argue different or have their own but i dont belive any rifle is faultless.

 

Hope this helps a little, good luck with your choice
