    I have an S200 and I'm very happy with it...but both the 400 and 200 do the job.
    Best advice is from Mike - join a club first, most people are happy to chat about their guns with good & bad and are nearly always happy to let you have a try of theirs.... This will save you making the wrong choice and might even put you on to one for sale.

    Try giving a bit more detail:

    What will it be used for - is it targets exclusively, and what kind - high accuracy paper punching or silhouette type FT/HFT or plinking?

    Budget - and does this include scope, mounts, filling cylinder, carry case etc......

    What is important to you - calibre/shot count/weight/single/multi shot......

    There are just so many variables that will give you the wrong answer unless you narrow it down a bit, then you will get a much better and more appropriate answer.

    Go to a club and speak to some of the guys there, we are a friendly bunch and I am sure the guys will be happy for you to shoot a few pellets on the range with their rifles or club gun.

    That would give you a better idea what is best for you.
