    Don't overlook Hatsans, AT44 and Galatian for example. Good triggers and very accurate.

    I do like the look of the bsa scorpions and ultra seems they might be a better option for shooting out of the truck you don't seem to see that many second hand so I suppose that's a good thing or tho the high shot count of the rolex was tempting but your never really gona need that many shots in one outing anyway

    I have two, an FAC Galatian and a sub12 Gladius. Built like a tank, sweet trigger, accurate as anything at twice the price and both come in their own hard case.
    You can spend thousands and still miss a barn door or spend just enough and enjoy yourself. If you haven't got the talent to start with a million pound won't fix it. Whippet, Russell, a few bang sticks and a flat cap. http://www.smart-tech1st.co.uk

    Value hunting pcp

    Probably overlooked but my trusty and favourite hunting rig is an AA S400 single shot with Rowan multi shot adaptor.
    I prefer this to the 410 multi shot - especially for hunting because you can load a pellet down the tube then de-cock while waiting for the bunnies. Then silently cock it when you want to take a shot. Sure you have to manually index but in my experience I have never had a jam in the field - where with the S410 if you don't pull the bolt back ebnough (trying to be quiet in the field) you can seriously jam them.
    Each to their own - and there aren't many duff guns really...

    Plus cheap hard case, single shot adaptor, and built in power adjuster so you can plink in the garden.

    A good alternative to a s/h S400.

    The Gladius is a bullpup which is particularly good value. Synthetic stock which is fully adjustable, fully shrouded barrel so extremely quiet, side lever cocking in a sensible place, four mags as standard and all in a hard case.
