    Quite a few people say the HW100 is good. So's the EVO.

    Myself and a mate regularly plink and hit a 6''x 6'' aluminium gong and old CD's at 100 yards with a TX200 mk2 & 3, HW97, HW99s & prosport. Most good quality air rifles should be good for this distance if its not blowing a gale.

    most pcp rifles would do the job but I think the weihrauch hw 100 or the Air arms tx200 springer would be my choice.

    Any of the Daystate models can do the business, Likewise the HW100 and the AA4** series are good With the AAS200 being the best of the Cheaper PCP's.
    Springers are tx200 or Prosport,or HW97 or 77 smoothed and lubed and the LGV trio are probably the most used for this style of target shooting.


    Question for myself lads Has anyone been using the one piece adjustable mounts,and if yes what are they like?? can you get enough adjustment to zero at 100 yards?? as I feel that packing the rear mount with shims for a springer is a big NO,because of the stress this put the tube under.
    I have looked at specialised one piece mounts with built in compensation but they are made for Centrefire rifles,and would imagine would struggle to give an air rifle enough angle,I could be wrong on that but they are too dear to just buy without first hand knowledge just on the off chance they would work.

    Hi,

    Indoors or outdoors? Shooting connected to the bottle (regulated)?

    Answers to these questions are important to give you some usable answers.
