Bottom line....If you want something that will perform out of the box, and service you can rely on, get the 26. With Mikes tune, expect about 650-680 Fps or 13-15 FPE with 14.3 gr pellets. If you have any issues, Mike can be gotten on the phone and handles issues faster than just about anyone. The other two WILL require work, and service is not the greatest with Hatsan. Not to say they arent good rifles, just that you will more then likely have to work on em.
