klarakoi 0 Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 Cheers fellas.. owned hundreds of rifles over the years.. i know theres no comparison to a pcp if your talking about recoil.. PCP will come out on top everytime! but i believe that a springer can match a pcp in accuracy in the right hands.. no dout there Are you a collector, what are you after in a rifle, have you not found what you are after yet in any of these Hundreds of rifles you have owned over the years? EEeeeeeRRRRRRRR chap, it's a free world, have what you like, enjoy what you like, believe what you like, but I find it strange you will NEVER find a Springer in any decent Target competition these days, can't help thinking that makes a statement about which is most accurate!! Most accurate or more easy??? Like you say its a free world, but to put down springer's is an insult to the sport bud,, IL have a shoot up with you with my PCP, and then my springer, and IL have what you like on it, you wont win,,, and you know why that is,,, not because I'm the best shot with a PCP, no but I'm not to bad with a springer,, get good with a springer be better with a PCP, shoot great with a PCP be shit with a springer,,, sorry for the wording bud but I fill strongly about me springer's,,lol,, Rob.. Rob..you are getting unduly excited, I am not putting down springer's but the simple reality is they are NOT as accurate as PCP.....I have bored myself looking back over the last few years and EVERY World Championship, Olympic, Country Championship, (which is not restricted to springers only), pistols included... is held by PCP...they are more accurate! That isn't putting down springers ..it is a simple irrefutable fact! ...and is f... all to do with you being a better shot with either than me or vice versa! You might be right about world championships Olympics and the like,, but before PCPs springer's where the norm, and if I'm thinking right doesn't Air Arms at this moment hold a world champion in FT with a springer,, I think you have missed the point,, a few of us are only saying that there,s a place for a springer in anyone's collection, and if you are an accomplished shot with a springer you will be a better one with a PCP, oh and I dont get exited,,, if you read my post the way I laid it out you would have noticed it was all in tongue and cheek, but about being a better shot,, you better believe it,,, Rob..
