    10 metre Target Air Rifle - Recommendations??

    I am trying to decide which rifle to look for and would be grateful for some guidance in this area. Ideally a fairly light one and it would need to be second hand as my budget is around £500, obviously the lower the better to keep the other half happy. Any ideas?

    For a really light one there's the new Gunpower Edge pcp;

    Its within your budget as its £499 brand new.
    I've used them at a couple of the gun shows where they've been on have-a-go stands. Personally I prefer a very heavy gun and these are really light (6.1lbs), but actionwise these are absolutely fine.

    A mate in my club bought one of these at Newark so if you want to know what it's like, just PM me.

    heard mixed reviews of these,for me they dont look adjustable enough to be a proper target rifle, butt plate looks awful

    I too had a look at the Gunpower at Newark. I also was not that impressed. I would rather spend the money on an AA S400MPR in the 6fpe version. I think that would be a much better bet as an intorductory rifle, and would take a shooter further than the Gunpower.
