    In the market for a new rifle

    Hi everyone.

    I'm looking to get a new .177 rifle I've narrowed it down to a hw100kt a hw110 or Hatsan gladius or a rotex rm8. I will be using it for target shooting an also with my xsight2.

    What's your opinion

    Odd mix.

    I've been happy with my .177 Rotex.
    And you would then have a lot of spare cash.

    But the 100 is the best.

    I would consider the weight aspect especially if you doing a fair bit of walking at night , so maybe the KT.

    HW100KT - classy piece of kit you will be proud to own. Buy that one.

    HW110 - plastic breech. Probably OK functionally, but - ewwww!

    Hatsan Gladius - ugly bullpup with lots of sharp edges, low resale value when you realise it isn't very nice.

    Rotex RM8 - monkeymetal wannabe.

    You get what you pay for, anything other than the HW100 will get moved on sooner or later ...

    Can you not put an AnM cylinder on a 100 to balance it out better also and increase shot count???

    HW100, the best of the choices you have made.

    Bought a 100KT and a 110 this year. 110 been faultless. Unfortunately the same can't be said for the 100 KT! Owned 100s bofore and these have all been faultless.
