Best rifle I've had has to be my current BSA Super10 Bull barrel carbine...

It is accurate as sin, or atleast near enough in my hands, probably very accurate in the hands of more skilled shooters, like Gary C, Sparky, etc etc.

It has never let me down (touch wood) and I love it to bits.. would never of thought of getting a BSA ever, until Feb/March 2004...

Not owned many, a bsa meteor was the first, and a Rapid mk1 the last and by far the best.

Have had more than a few custom specials in the past that'll take some beating and one or two that i've manufactured myself from scratch, but the one i think most fondly of was a TX200 in .177 cal, took me an age to save up for that out of a measley paypacket many moons ago, but it was well worth the wait.

If you had included Rimmies, I would have said the CZ .17, but since you didn't it has to be the BSA Super 10 FAC.

It`s got to be my Daystate MK3b FT .177 what a fantastic rifle such a pleasure to use even when I`m shooting c**p [which is quite often,]

I also have a Daystate Harrier X2 .177, and a Weihrauch HW100 .177,both are a joy to use.
It`s sooooooooo good to be single again.

Got to be Ripley. Have owned AR5S for Ft and XL9 for hunting. Superb accuracy and consistancy. Only downside was the XL9 is a little too long when silencer added.

Haenel 303 springer was the first. Got that as a younf teenager from as a hand down from my from uncle. Hours of fun. Basic and all be it a tad crap on the stock.

let airgunning for a few years and ended up with a TX200 .22. great guns. Solid and well built. A little heavy but reliable and no problem of fills. Just you and the gun and as many pellets and sore arms as you want.

X2r probably the nicest looking....

Trouble is the point was made earlier that everyone has a currnet or favourite for its time. Wouldn't have traded in the Haenel or the TX200 at some point....now the harrier , well wait and see what the year brings...hopefully and FAC lol

Anyway, the Tx200 go me back into it all and didn't let me down so guess I'll have to go with that.
