    Air arms

    Wouldn’t worry about accuracy mate, I had a .22 s410 for years and it was brilliant, only sold it to get a mk2 rapid as I wanted a greater shot count at the time. I’ve also recently sold an s400 I took in part ex on something I was selling. It was a .22, was literally pellet on pellet at 35 yd’s mate. Had it been .177 I’d have kept it as a back up hft rig, sold it for £275. Was a bargain really.

    Not bad at all thanks Bob.

    Are you getting the air arms then? Only thing I didn’t like on mine was the trigger, just maybe needed setting up better but didn’t feel they were great.

    We've just sold an immaculate one at the club; yes the trigger wasn't set up how most owners would like but it's not a long job to adjust it.

    I’ve got a .177 superlite action in a custom stock,I use 4.52 exacts after pellet testing with it,it’s far more accurate than I am,off a bench it’s on par with a lot more expensive rifles at our club.i’m switching from a springer to it for next season,so far i’m Very pleased with it
