[QUOTE="SumTingWong, post: 1660437, member: 110341"] [USER=38154]@Laelkhunter[/USER] - Thanks for the artillery hold tip! That was gold, right there. So, I'm going to get a springer. I can spend $1k on a good springer and scope, and use the extra money for a shotgun, or varmint rifle. I have narrowed it to one of three models: R9/HW95 R11/HW98 HW97K (Blue) I'm leaning towards the R11, as the heavier front end, adjustable cheek, adjustable butt, all contribute to a more "custom" feel/fit. Yeah, it's a little more than the R9, but it looks much nicer. But, accuracy and ease of shooting are primary, so... I really like the looks of the 97K blue. Some may think it's uglier than hell, but I think it's so different from the rest, that it's cool. It's a FIXED barrel, which I've not seen a lot of info about. But, even with the shorter barrel, it looks to be very accurate. Thoughts/input? Hey, even if you think the 97k blue is ugly, let me know your opinion of the "shootiness" (I just made that up) of them. Thanks for all the input, and I promise I'm getting close to a purchase! Although, after I get the rifle, scope choice is next. Was looking at a Hawke Airmax, but man that sidewheel just looks like it would be in the way. [/QUOTE]
