Confused ..help me out

Post by Sandeep Jadhao » Wed Mar 26, 2008 5:27 pm

Dear All,

I need your advice, I am confused

I want to buy an air rifle(.22") with scope whose shooting range should be 50-100mtr(whether Indian or Imported doesn't matter) and what will be the budget?. If imported from where to buy?

or

Can you suggest a rifle similar to IHP35(.22"), but shooting range should be greater then IHP35.

visit www.pyramidair.com
for the prices and range

you could buy em from Pyramidair.com
or mac1airgun.com

but first decide what kind do you want. Springer, Co2 or PCP + for something like IHP 35 with more range you could go in for HW90, Dianas or ...... the list is pretty long. i think you should visit some websites and read the previous posts. sorry cant help much, i'd suggest you shortlist a few air-rifles and guys here could help you with what's best for you. :)


Cheers
Sid

i think you first need to decide what you need it for. is it going to be long range plinking or ISSF target shooting at 10m.

if you really want an aigun that lets you shoot targets at 50-100 m with consistent accuracy, i'm afraid you're tied to a good pcp. which is a fairly expensive proposition, specially if you plan to import, not mentioning the overheads.

also, as sid suggests, go over the past airgun posts. you will get a fair idea of the game

Check the sale section there is one .22 up for sale. It gives you a fair idea on price for an imported one or you could start with IHP.

for 50 meters, you really need HW standard barrel.
For 100 Meters, you really need a powerful PCP fitted with premium Lothar Walther or HW standard barrel. and heavy weight aerodynamic pellets to fly so far.

May be this link can help you.

why dont you drop em a mail. they'll take you through the whole procedure.

pyramidair is notorious for overcharging intenational orders. they even give a hard time to shoppers in the u.k.
