Here are my choices so far.
Most of my shooting is target, plinking, pesting, some hunting. I would like to shoot out to 100 yards with at least quarter size grouping ::)
I have never cared for .177( not sure why) but won't rule it out as I want Accuracy. I shoot in my 55' backyard range a lot so I will want a LDC or something already quite. I have my eyes on the AA S510 Extra .22 carbine W/ LDC. Also really like the BSA R-10 MK2.
Of course I would love to have all of these but will have to pick one :'(
AA S510 FAC
AA S510 EXTRA CARBINE
HW 100 FSB
BSA R-10 MK2
Air Force Condor .25
Talon SS air rifle
Thanks for advice or comments.

you can't go wrong with either AA or BSA gun. I don't really care for the airforce guns. I' have been a .22 and .25 fan for a long time until I got a AA MPR FT 177. Now all I should is the .177 at 12lbs.

Go European and never look back :)
other guns I would look into are the Daystate huntsman and the Cricket Carbine

The Daystate looks interesting. Love the cricket carbine too. This is going to be a Tough decision.
Thanks to all for the suggestion's
Anyone have a HW 100 ? Love the way it loads and the side lever.

The Daystate Huntsman Regal XL would be an excellent choice in .25 @41 fpe. With practice it will reach out to 60+ yards with excellent accuracy

I can vouch for a couple of the guns mentioned. I love my Daystate Regal. It's beautiful, easy to work on if needed, nice shot count with the Harper Valve and Slingshot hammer and it's really easy to shoot accurately. I don't have the S510, just the 500 22 FAC. It's equally as accurate and actually has a more solid build and feel to it. Fit and finish is excellent. I've been considering a S510 walnut carbine but I think I'll just stick to the long version and keep it unregulated. Shot count on both of these guns is good. Seems like always good reports on the FX 400. As mentioned above the cricket carbine has been on my wish list too.Keep us posted on which way your leaning. Oh yea, the S510 Carbine and a Daystate Huntsman are both listed in the want add's section on the section page. I've tried contacting the seller with no response though. The prices look fair enough!
