I love my SR but if only one gun I would want mag fed pellets and recoiless not 'cos I can't hold a springer but it would have to hold it's zero both when held and rested.
If Theoben did an SLR98 on a sled, that'd do.
the difficulties of hand loading and cocking in the cold, dark or when lying prone makes a multi shot PCP my choice.
Of course in a post Armageddon scenario the springer's self containment comes back into it's own.
I love the "no recoil "which allows you to follow the pellet path striking the target when the light is right. I have never been able to do this with a springer

I can follow the shot with my HW90 - but then it's a gas-ram and so has less recoil than a spring gun and i don't know if you count it as a "springer"!

I've got 3 springers and AHarrier, love them all but the simplicity of the springers beats the pcp hands down, no air bottles, no magazines etc....
