Pcp V Springer

Agree with you martin, i'm amazed at HFT comps when i chat to youngsters, how few have ever shot a springer! I dont know if this poll is attracting mainly springer users, or its like when people say ' cant beat the old cars, carbs, rear wheel drive, no power steering so you can really feel what the cars doing', but would'nt think of ever running one on a daily basis, prefering a modern front wheel drive, with power steering, A/C etc. I'll add that I am a springer user, and compete with one, so you know where my votes going. I will add ' tuned springer' as a proviso, though

I'd say that was definitely the case.

Well now I have to stop lurking as you have drawn me out with this topic,let me introduce myself, JW Walker from Arizona in USA,long time air rifle enthusiast. Started with a pump up Crosman back in the early 60`s,went on to springers, few years back purchased PCP FX Tarantula. PCP is much easier to shoot accurately as has already been stated, springer is more of a passion and can be as accurate, with proper technique and plenty of practice. Now having said that, if you don`t have time or a place to practice then you would probably find a PCP to be better suited. As for myself I have to go my FWB 124 and my TX 200 are calling me.
