    If money is no object, get the best you can afford.

    or the one you feel more comfortable shouldering......try as many scopes as you can as not every scope suit 100% of the populations eyes

    I can honestly recommend the HW100 for build quality, reliability and accuracy. Excellent all-rounder at a decent price.

    Cool

    You can refill the carbine half way round, had a Daystate harrier x, lovely rifle,, but the HW 100 is by far the best I've shot.
    If you've got a good budget, why not try the aa ultimate sporter, had some great reviews.
    If it was me and I had the money, it would be the Daystate wolverine ,air wolf, or air ranger.

    Any of those will be fine for starters and then you can settle for the HW100.

    Have a go with everything on your list, mate - then make up your mind.
    Price doesn't mean best, as said. I have an S400 and a 'budget' Hammerli AR20 here that match guns in the accuracy department costing literally five times their price...

    Hw100

    I have the HW100 and can't fault it for targets and is my go to rifle for daytime hunting / lamping, some people say it's a bit heavy for hunting but I've never found the an issue.

    ...and my 50 year old, £75 .22lr BSA Martini is by far the most accurate rimfire rifle I've ever owned ( and I've owned a good few )

    You'd need more than .22lr to penetrate that old carcass!

    ( I still 'would' though )
