I realize it's heavy, but is there a better under 500fps rifle on the market? Thanks for the input.

I have one and it shoots well with minimum recoil.
Hi
I own 3 weihrauch rifles and 2 weihrauch handguns. Needless to say i loooove them. I am very satisfied with all of them. That said i don't own yet a 97k but it is on my list. I would not hesitate if i were you
We need more info to give you the better answer...Originally Posted by MRACER
It depends on what you mean by "better" it's a quite general term. Do you mean more powerful? More accurate? Cheaper?
There is more accurate but it will cost you more money, there is more powerful but you may need a PAL it depends if are you talking about a .177 or .22
Give us better info of what you're looking for in a rifle and we'll give you a better answer
wish to compare non PAL rifles-better is an all around term encompassing- accuracy, quality of build etc. I realize this is a tuff question for under 500 fps rifles--like to hear all opinions please- thanks!
In springers it's pretty much the top of the line BUT you can get a PCP in non-PAL, they will be easier to shoot with accuracy.
If you wish to stay with the higher end of the airgun world you should stay with the european manufacturers.
If you want to give the darkside (PCP) a try some new things came to Canada recently (Brocock, Evanix) or you can go a bit cheaper with the Hatsan line of PCP.
What airgun experience/history to you have? What are your expectations? Do you want to hunt with it or target shoot?
I don't think you could be disapointed with a HW97 but you might be able to find something that's more suited to what you want to do with it.
i HAVE A GAMMO handgun, decided to give up my PAL, but have several pre 1896 handguns which I shoot at the range- just felt the need for a long gun for plinking, maybe a squirel? which is why I think a 22cal would be better than 177. Reached that stage of life, where I follow the---"I AM A POOR MAN AND THEREFORE CAN NOT AFFORD TO BUY CHEAP STUFF" RULE. lol If price is an indicator, I thought this would be one of the better ones as I was leaning to the Sheridan trail untill I came upon this unit which is priced at 733.53 from D&L- about double the cost of the Sheridan. Of course a scope would have to be added, so any hints on a good scope would also be appreciated. Thanks
Like I said you surely won't be deceived by the HW97 (I have yet to see someone who is) but PCP's are sooooo nice!
Scope- you want a scope!

I'd say I care- but I'd probably be lying...
that is a nice scope reasonably priced and due to the fact you are well connected I would assume it is compatible with air guns- I heard air guns had different requirements for shock absorb compared to a rifle scope- Was I misinformed? thanks
