Title: Accurate powerful springer
Post by: Subway on April 24, 2016, 04:33:16 PM
I'm looking for a dead on accurate .22 springer cspable of 9fpe at 50y shots.
I have been eye balling the fd tuned xs46u but after looking at chair gun it at 700 fps it doesn't seem to have much more energy at 50 as my .177
My budget is 300$ what are my options for a powerful accurate springer in that price range?

One of the NP2 variants. 21 fpe at the muzzle, 14 fpe at fifty. 3/4" groups at fifty. I have the Steel Eagle .22 and a Trail .22, almost identical in all respects. I have done trigger work to lighten and smooth them, brass washers  and Ultimox lube on piston.

I just bought a Hatsan Torpedo 100X/.22. It is shooting RWS Superdomes (14.5gr) at 25.3 FPE at the muzzle, 11.2 FPE at 50 yds per Chairgun. I got a deal on the steel spring version closeout for $122 (thank you SSG Grampo). There may be a few left at various vendors, the new Vortex gas ram version sells for around $250. Pretty well made gun with a nice walnut stock, quite accurate too.

Also have a Hatsan 135/.177 steel spring that shoots Crosman CP Heavies (10.5gr) at 25.7 muzzle, 13.5 at 50 yds. Big heavy gun and hard to cock, but accurate and also a nice walnut stock. I got it for $139 refurb, they go for under $250 new.

There are two reviews with pictures of targets and groups by two users in the European and Turkish gate/forum. Just look for it.

It's a banging deal, if you ask me. Just the scope is 100$+ and you get it for 30$. Rifle is 80$ off.  Such a good deal i am considering getting yet another rifle.

Which rifle & scope combo are you referring to?

Would it be better to go with the .177 then the .22? Kinda seems like the fpe isnt to far away between the two
