Good Day, I'm a newbie here and I've enjoyed the last few months reading everything that I can find about this sport. I would like to say "Thank you," all y'all for sharing your knowledge in this forum! Sadly there seems to be no one, at least that I can currently find, within my area that currently participates in air rifling, but I'm hoping to change that.
I'm interested in purchasing an air rifle with Field Target shooting in mind. It seems that many, if not most, acknowledge that Springer air rifles is where one should begin. I've been looking at Walther LGU's, Air Arms TX200 MKIII, and Weihrauch HW97K. Being left handed I'm now leaning towards the HW97K .177.
My question is this: I can purchase the wood stock model of the HW97K in either 16 Joule (11.8fpe) or 20 Joule (14.7fpe). Which would be the best fpe model for my purchase to use as a Field Target Springer? Thank you in advance for your replies!
