60 yards is a long distance for a sub 12ft lb airgun especially for rabbits.
You really need a FAC for those kind of hunting ranges.
Apply for a FAC and get FAC air, 22LR, 17HMR etc.....

Thanks for the info, I am that man!! like many others I had my share of airguns and rifles when I was a boy, but for one reason or other lost interest as time went by. Now at a grand old age of 50(ish) I have decided I have the time and some spare cash to re ignite my old hobby. Things have certainly changed in the passing years and the choice now is fantastic. Springers Co2's PCP's. I decided to get myself a decent pre owned PCP and after visiting my local airgun shop in Raleigh Essex came away with a lovely little BSA single shot Ultra - all scoped up with a moderator attached. Plus the air bottle and loads of advice and on how to best enjoy my new found friend. I'm now dead keen on buying myself another Gun and have started to look at New PCP Rifles and have whittled my choice down to these four;

1) Weihrauch HW100S
2) Theoben Rapid MkII
3) Daystate Huntsman Clasic
4) BSA R-10

All will need Scopes, What Rifle and compatible scope do you suggest I go for?
As you see I'm not impressed by price as i think there is quite a difference in some of these.

[Titchgamer]

I would go for the HW100 personally.

[andyj]

what a great read put a lot of effort in there andy well done !!

[Phantomsniper]

So the cash is burning a hole in my pocket, and if I don't spend it soon the wife will!!! any more advise guys???

[Titchgamer]

Lol post a thread with the advice ure after.

[Phantomsniper]

Well I thought I did last week, you even replied at the time that you would go for the HW100. I intend to use the gun mainly for HFT & FT and occasionally if I'm lucky to do a bit of Rabbit hunting. THE BSA is a great gun but seems too short for me to be really comfortable with. Why would you choose the HW100? over the other three?

[Titchgamer]

I believe it is the higher quality of them all.
Personally though I would go for Air Arms
At the end of the day any of those 4 will serve you well but it will come down to which you feel is best for you.
