Merry Christmas everyone!
Wow. Such great advice! Thank you all for weighing in. I will absolutely take a look at HWs, however before I dive deep into this hobby I want to make sure it's something I really like. As Glenroiland has said, the firearm side of me really likes that the Sig is expected to shoot well out of the box without a ton of modifications. That is appealing to me. Given that I have a good chunk of credit with Sig, I'll be able to pick up the ASP20 for a little over $100. Lots to consider with the range as well. I appreciate the reality check on the range I can expect with a springer. I would be perfectly content to have good groupings at 50-60 yards with the occasional long distance shot "for fun". I will start with the ASP20 and if I really like it I will look into a nicer, more adjustable, rifle. Based on what I'm reading it sounds like .22 may be the way to go for me. I want that extra bit of power to be able to knock down my steel targets, or at least hear the satisfying "PLINK".
What about optics? What types of scopes are you guys running? bubblerboy64 affirmed that Leupold is a good way to go. Unfortunately there are not a lot of options in the Leupold line that have an adjustable objective other than the Freedom 3x9x33mm. Some of the Hawke scopes looked pretty nice. I would go with the Whiskey3 from Sig, however recent poor experience with another Sig optic caused me to shy away from buying Sig optics. Thoughts on scopes?
Thanks!!
