This is my first post here.
I am all over the place. Random questions that, I guess, we all go through while choosing a PCP. Been doing my due diligence in my research but I'm not sure I know enough to even be on the right track. A few years ago I bought a Discovery and spent way to much on mods. It was fun but not practical for the cost. Anyway I guess at best its putting out about 23 foot lbs of energy. I would like to get into the upper 30's. I would like more power and range than I am at present getting from the Discovery.
I would like to use the "rifle" for squirrel, rabbit and when I go to South Dakota prairie dogs. The reason I put the "rifle" in quotes is I am actually considering a bullpup in .25. I am thinking about the HATSAN FLASHPUP.25. What are your thoughts on the Flashpup good and bad, or for that matter Hatsan? All the normal things are in consideration, cost, power and accuracy. Best bang for the buck thing. I'm not sold on anything thats why Im here. I was thinking about the Marauder but the weight and the fact that they have a Crosman barrel kinda turned me off. I know there is the "optional" barrel but that puts the rifle way out of my price range. I would like to start a discussion that may help others also.
Anyway what are your thoughts?
thanks
