Hi

Yes I would agree with you, at the level of bell target shooting there is not much difference in a 300s and a 700 Feinwerkbau just because the standard of shooting in a hobby varies too much, if you give a novice a 700 and an experienced 10 metre shooter a 300s there would be only one outcome, but saying that you would not win an Olympic ten metre gold with a 300s, how ever good you are, there is just no comparison in the two rifles. One of the biggest differences is the amount of effort in cocking the rifle between shots,

I think you will find the feinwerbau 600 is not a spring rifle, it is a single stroke pneumatic. No offence meant it is just that many bell target leagues do use the old spring rifles and don't allow the modern match rifles.
