Gotta be pcp, im toooooo lazy to cock a springer

plus never ran out of air when hunting, and bottle off, fill, bottle on for god knows how many shots still gotta be a lock quicker than cocking a springer and loading !!

plus less noise, less movement and in my case more accuracy because of no kick ... and i need ALL the help i can get there

I went for PCP for the multishot & accuracy, but I really love my HW45 pistol including its recoil, guns are supposed to be noisy & PCP's are'nt (mostly).

Voted springer.

I like the idea of independence and trying to develop the skill to remove the effect of recoil on accuracy.

However, I would prefer a PCP to the severe recoil of a .177 springer. That is why I have a .20 gasram (Fenman) which has hardly any recoil, a good flat trajectory, superior stopping power and an indestructible, oiled hardwood stock which is harder than oak!

Hello all,
1st post here but been reading for awhile. Voted for springer because I think it taught myself to be a better shooter. Although I got alot of room for improvement.
