blasterjudd Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 OK all in your opinion what's the best newlight pcp don't want anything featherweight just something reasonable to lug around paddocks to shoot bunny's and woodies. Don't want Bull pup rifles or pistols though ! Who's the best manufacturer of such a rifle Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootgun Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 Daystate Huntsman is nice and light, but i would go Weichrauch HW100 S al day long, even if is on the heavy side though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoggysreels Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 In the unlikely event you are ever going to carry 35+ bunnies from the paddock to your car in one sitting .. l'd suggest . BSA Ultra Se Air Arms S410 Air Arms S200 All above hold their resale value well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) Daystate Huntsman Classic .177 is a great gun but if you want lightweight a Logun S16 would be better. If only new guns the Brocock Compatto is a light gun and being a carbine semi Bullpup would suit your needs better than anything else new at reasonable price I can think of.

Salop Matt Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Any budget in mind ? Good / great VFM rifles out there that I would look at are: HW100 - Any variant Brocock - Any variant especially the Compatto Walther Rotex RM8 AA S410 BSA - Ultra, Scorpian, R10 Going for more spend then Daystates.

oldypigeonpopper Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 hello, if you mean new as in just on the market brocock compatto in .177 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFN Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) Top contenders for lightweight and accurate are AA s410 superlight, AA s200, Falcon FN12 light hunter and BSA ultra. Edit. Missed the new bit so Falcon is out. Edited June 6, 2016 by FalconFN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoggysreels Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Compatto does seem to be highly thought of .. its had some good reviews, worth a look !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wilksy Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Weichrauch hw110 brand new one! Rubber coated stock, very light for a weirchauch and good price at £635 I think! Tried one at northern shooting show, very impressive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Can you go too light and get stability/aim problems ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salop Matt Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 From experience AA is poor with there blueing and with regards the HW110 even the the guy from HC said at the shooting show there is just no point in a 110 if you have a 100 or the option of. I would rather a second hand HW100 over a new 110! But this is just my opinion before anyone shoots me down ! ATB Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penelope Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) I have recently bought a second hand HW100 and was surprised how light it is, compared to the HW77 I had many years ago. Edited June 7, 2016 by Penelope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Don't think a lightweight pcp is any less accurate than a heaven gun as no recoil. A springer needs weight or they leap around on firing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Don't think a lightweight pcp is any less accurate than a heaven gun as no recoil. A springer needs weight or they leap around on firing. I was thinking of general waggle with your arms out, I am not keen on guns being too light. A bit of weight helps me a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattleFieldRelics Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 S410 TDR is very light Hw100 Karbine - best air rifle i've ever owned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 The winerack 100 or 110 is a typical German gun works as a rifle but can double up as a fence post knocker. Heavy gun and not classed as a barry mcguigan but more of a Lennox Lewis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol p Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Hw100s are brill, i love my one, but heavy compared to bsa ultra. The ultra was a great little gun but low on shot count(35). Ive moved to the r10 super carbine now which is almost as short, a bit heavier, but better on shot count (150). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
