I've got a 99 at the min but been offered the stingray off a lad I know but is a 3 hour drive just to try lol the 99 seems flippy at the muzzle which I don't like the way things are at the min i could only just afford a tin of pellets never mind a drop in kit as much as id love to. Had to sell my r10 to get the kids a puppy after theirs had a fit and dropped dead. The webley is supposed to be tuned but it's not a hw

Then my hand on heart answer is: Don't spend more money on another gun! (I know right?!)

What power is your 99 at? A simple strip, clean and slight power reduction may solve the problem. There is very little in the lightweight springer world that can beat the 99 when set up right.

Gunshop it came from said it's at 10.8-10.9 ftlb so should be right could do with someone having a go with it that knows them to see if u a just me coming from pcp or if it is actually bouncy

I dont have a Stingray, but I have an Xocet, which has the same power plant as the Stingray.
Compared to the 99s, which here in Norway is called the 50s, the 99/50 has a shorter stroke and a lighter piston, which to most people makes it easier and more comfortable to shoot. The 99/50s is one of the springers that are really easy to shoot accurately, both because of the powerplant and the trigger.

But the Webleys have a feel that you dont get from the modern German guns. If you can, get both, and enjoy both for what they are.
