Gas rams may or may not be appropriate in the world today because seals and pressure areas in cocking over time show a simple springer with a real spring instead of "air" in a "bag" as a gas ram has is more consistent with LONGEVITY to keep shooting straight.
If you want a rifle that always always always shoots straight from the time of purchase until after 5000 rounds then use the spring or the SPRING coiled mechanism to be assured of CONSISTENT accuracy over years or even decades.
The gas ram is powerful and the Chinese and Koreans and Asians and other places in the world that know how to employ thousands to piece together a mimic Theoben are prolifically flooding the market and confusing all.
Price DOES make a difference and you DO get what YOU pay for!
Think ahead and get the best FROM THE START and then decide whether gas ram or spring piston is better for YOU.
To me the HW98 ENDS IT ALL!
I have the .177, .20, and .25 HW98 and they ALL end it for me and any frustration I have about accuracy is GONE! Time after time year after year atmosphere going winter summer spring and fall--the HW98 BEATS EVERY GAS RAM made TODAY.
If you can GET an OLD THEOBEN Eliminator that hasn't even been "broken" into after 2000 rounds THEN GET IT as your LAST and Final Gas Ram.
When Gas Ram becomes too much to cock or deal with shot after shot after shot and you wear out think again.
Get a rifle that never ever stops performing with manageable cocking to the system: A Springer HW98.
Anyone else here have an HW98 before they diss this statement of mine?
