    I got a Gunpower edge last year for around that money. I fitted baffles to the shroud and put bearings on the hammer which has improved it no end. It is completely adjustable for either hand and shoots as well as anything else I've tried.
    I have read lots of negative things about this gun, (mainly from greybeards. It's not walnutty enough and is in colour, not good old fashioned black and white) but it doesn't seem to be from anyone who's tried one. The three people I know with them love them.

    I don't really mind! I have a tank for the pistol, and I guess I'd prefer not to have CO2 for no reason other than it's a tank I don't have /an ongoing cost. As far a ssp, spring or PCP, I'm open to ideas if it's cheap, accurate and not too fussy. Obviously in this price range I'm guessing something almost vintage and not too popular, but with so few coming up , I'm not sure "unpopular" is appropriate!

    Have you thought of the air arms S200 target version ? Ambidextrous and not too far from your price range.

    Good suggestion - we have one of these in our club and it shoots very well.

    It also has the advantage of being up to date so spare parts and service should not be a problem either!
    Rossendale Target Shooting Club. Every Tuesday and Thursday evening 7 - 10pm.

    If you can find left handed versions, fwb 300 and original 65/66/75 can be had in your budget. I would take one of these over a lower price modern PCP any day
