JCD, in your search for a new rifle, you might want to look at the Red Wolf. I have a RAW and love it, also have a Red Wolf, both in standard power .22. I would be hard pressed to choose a favorite, but since you have not fallen in love with the RAW, you might really like the Red Wolf. Mine is my first electronic rifle, and I have found that there is something incredibly cool about it, hard to explain. I use mine some in backyard target shooting and squirrel control. Since there is no spring and hammer, with the suppressor it is the quietest rifle I have ever shot. As with any rifle, the barrel is critical. Mine came with a bad one, would not shoot worth a darn. AOA replaced it, and it is now as accurate as any rifle I've ever owned, including the RAW and a Steyr match rifle. Shot count and velocity consistency are both excellent. Since you are looking for a HP, my power settings would be immaterial for you, but the three settings offer a lot of flexibility. I was initially hesitant to rely on complicated electronics, but then I realized, I do that in almost every aspect of my life, so why be afraid of it? With the micro processor control of the firing cycle, the lock time is virtually immediate. And with the firing cycle having no moving parts, it's just eerily fast and quiet. I know this is all subjective stuff, and totally a personal preference, but it might be your new best friend.
