I have the Hatsan .30 cal. springer. It is hard to cock, ammo isn't cheap, and you will need a mildot scope on it. Every time I look on the internet it is a little cheaper, and I found one in a pawn shop locally for $140. Helps to sit down with the crony and a ballistics program to figure out its trajectory, but I have fun plinking with it out to 42 yards (max backyard range). Mine likes the JSB lighter pellets best, but the Hatsan pellets are cheaper, and get nearly the same result. I ordered some H&N pellets in November of '18, but gave up in March, they never came back in stock. At 42 yards, there is no doubt when you hit a 2" gong.
