    Had previously had no idea about the .243/.25 issue. Likewise, didn't realise there was a Lightning .25. Every day's a schoolday!
    Hatsans cropped up a few times when I was 'having a Google'. Used a Striker(?) in .22 a while back, seemed OK, but it was only for an afternoon.
    Cometa - will have a look.

    I had a BSA Supersport .243 25-cal & pellet sizer from TBT, topped out around 8ftlb iirc,
    bought a Striker .25 when they first came out 2011/12 did a review of it, nice rifle let down by the trigger, often regret selling it, but it went to fund a Scorpion SE .25 which I've still got, superb rifle.
    Also got a Rapid .25 FAC but that's a whole different level.

    PS the Scorpion with 20gn FTT, a 25yd zero gives an unbroken +/- half inch PBR from 6-28yds at 11.5ftlb Quarter bore is perfectly practical.
