Maybe this is not a bad thing but HW offerings, especially the HW77/97, 95/98 seem to have more heft about them which could attract potential buyers over the BSA rifles. First impressions count.

Everyone seems to be ranting on about lightness nowadays, the HW99 and 30 being the most mentioned, the Supersport seems to be having a bit of a revival of late, which is nice and makes a change.

I think the Supersport/Star are perfect weights for lugging about a field all day.
