    Depending how I am feeling:

    Full power: HW99s with barrel weight in 22.

    Half power: HW30s in 177. I prefer the kit version with shorter barrel.

    Not the greatest lookers but cheap, accurate, and, mercifully, light.

    I really would find it hard to choose between these two, but at the moment, I'm thinking 99s.

    Tomorrow I could be thinking 30s.

    Hello to All,

    Almost impossible to choose !

    For me, it would be my TX200.

    Almost, almost at the top, are my HW99S, and my classic 10m springer target rifles (Diana 75 & 66, FWB300 & 300SU, Anschutz 250, Walther LG55 & LGV)

    Have fun

    Best regards

    Russ

    Maybe a Whiscombe. Haven't managed to get a go with one yet though.....

    An 11 ft-lb Diana 65 with Tyrolean stock would be nice too

    So many different reasons to nominate a single keeper.
    For niceness to shoot, my LGV and tuned tx 200.
    For sentiment, my Mercury and Airsporter.
    For collectability My Lincoln Militia, engraved , reblued, and looks mint.
    For looks, Diana 46 stutzen.
