    Hello Gary, Welcome to the BBS.


    I would recommend that you join a local airgun club and ask to try out a variety of air rifles before buying one.

    You will get lots of useful information from experienced airgunners on here and also at a local club.


    Good Luck.

    ive tried a air arms s400 1.77 and a weihrauch hw100 1.77 and a falcon which was a .22 and 10 years old and still shot like new! amazing guns.

    problem is weihrauch and falcon are out my price range

    i have enjoyed the s400 but still keeping my eyes open for a rifle

    thanks guys!
