dougall Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 tempted after handling one to go to the darkside and have a pcp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretagentmole Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Be careful, grouping can be lousy. The other half bought one and had to send it back to BSA as it would not group with any pellet we tried (including various head sizes).

Zetter Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I recently bought a .22 in a camo stock. Unlike Moles other halfs one it grouped really well. But the mag then started breaking the O ring holding the pellets in all the time so much so I in the end had to try 3 replacement mags from my local RFD to find one that would work.

dougall Posted November 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 cheers chaps..neither review overly positive,may be boring and go hw100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetter Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Apart from their tendancy to go overpowered and have to be tuned down the HW100 is bascally bomb proof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les*1066 Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I would bypass the Scorpion and go straight for the HW100 - you won't be disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longbower Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 HW 100 is a good piece of kit. But, I would consider giving an Air Arms S410/510 a good handling , Especially the carbine version if you are walking around with it.

lineshooter Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 Don`t be put off,I have a single shot Scorpion, a multi shot Ultra and a R10 all in .177 calibre as with most airguns they all like a different pellet but all are pellet on pellet at 25 yards and I have not had any major issues with any of them, I get a good, usable 70 shots from a 190 bar fill with the Scorpion.
