    The hw100 pup is on sale now.
    Wildcat mk2 would be my choice out of those you mention
    My mk2 .177 was faultless and accuracy was spot on .

    The AGT Uragan Compact is well worth a look
    Put on heading 270, assume attack formation

    Thanks for your thoughts, folks.
    I considered the Galahad but, ignoring that it's fugly, I think I'd need the cocking lever on the left which I don't really want. It's also quite heavy.
    The Vulcan II appeals more than the the Uragan as it can have a walnut stock. I think a trip up to BAR might be needed to actually handle them. I'm just slightly worried about service & repairs.
    The Wildcat II is looking favourite at the moment but I could be swayed to the Vulcan II.

    Bullpup choice.

    My vote is for the AGT Vulcan 2 guy had one at my local range it was a .177 11.8 ft/lb fingernail groups @ 55 yards straight out of the box, just as accurate as any top FT rifle, they are fitted with a CZ barrel.
    £1350+ not cheap though.

    The best bullpup bar none is the Edgun Matador. Try one and you will be hooked. I did and was. As you might remember I am also a lefty-not that it matters as the rifle is ambi.

    Hw100 bullpup has the safety on both sides of the action so it's probably possible to switch the lever round as well.
    I bought one yesterday and its great. 140 shots per fill and very accurate.
    I was looking at the defiant recently but after the shop saying it was 11+ ftlbs then when it was actually chrono'd it wasn't even doing 10 with any pellets, and the shop saying its OK I decided not to buy it.
    But the bullpup itch wouldn't go away so after a bit of thought I got the hw. There were a few others I considered but I thought with the other pcps I bought and sold before settling on a 100s I'd cut out all the messing around and go straight for a hw bullpup. And I'm glad I did.

    Cheaper option

    Try a P15 before deciding,I had always dismissed these as Chinese junk But after coming across one they are super accurate and featherweight. super tuneable simple to work on and customisable beyond belief.
    If you have a relevant slot on an FAC they also can be without too much hassle be tuned to 40-50ftlbs easily.
    I have one in .25 cal fitted with a Walther Barrel and Huma Regulator with FAC spring.
