HW95 would be my choice.
Probably S/H
hi room , i fancy a good new springer , but not to heavy [have a weak shoulder after a bike accident ]so that rules out most underleavers for standing shots ,and under £200 the closer to £150 the better so any suggestions or comments good or bad on any rifle most welcome
HW95 would be my choice.

I might suggest that you buy a BSA Lightning XL.....
Lightweight, accurate, excellent trigger and so on....
I´ve had mine for a couple of months and I must say that I´m pleased.
no problem shooting crows with headshots at 50 yards ..
2 x Rapids
FX
AA etc..

Weihrauch HW80
This is my rifle. There are many like it but this one is mine.. Logun Axsor Carbine .177 Weaver V24 6-24x42
BSA LightningXL
HW95
FWB Sport - my preferred choice.
The lightning feels (to me) the lightest of the 3 (regardless of what it says on paper.
I play a Fender bass, I shoot a springer. I like things to be, well, dependable
It seems that way.. In fact it is not 50 yards, it´s more exactly 52 meters when I do the longest shots.. ( and I would´nt try thoose shots in windy conditions )Originally Posted by airgun nut
And I´m not the world champion.. Just a regular airgunhunter ( swedish that is.. ; )
2 x Rapids
FX
AA etc..
52 meters? thats..56 yards. a reduced kill 25mm circle consistently at 56 yards? WOW! who needs a full blown FT rig. Just buy a Lightning.Originally Posted by Ricard Sweden

Remember he's in Sweden, it might be doing a bit more that 12 ft/lbs.Originally Posted by airgun nut
Still very impressive shooting mind.

The lightning is capable of approximately 14 ft/lb in fac form and becomes extremely lively when tuned to this limit, making such a shot even harder......and more impressive!Originally Posted by sam vimes

Ah, but no one said anything about the custom built sledge mechanism and the bench vices involved. Or the stuffed crow placed in a very large hermetically sealed buildingOriginally Posted by airgun nut

i have a lightning xl with 3+12+50 illuminated mill dot scopes sling bag and upgraded with a theoben gas ram how does £200 sound?
the webley xocet would suit your needs, reasonably light, accurate, better trigger than the lightning imo. will hit big headed swedish crows just as well
