Cricket or wildcat..... or talon ss

I have an older TalonSS in .22 cal and a Condor in .22 cal. .For me the ergonomics of getting a comfortable cheek rest against the bottle is poor. Neither rifle has a match like trigger like you find in many other rifles. The Airforce rifles firing cycle with their hammer weight hitting the valve is not very smooth and particularly with my Condor which has a heavier hammer. I have a Wildcat in .25 cal and think the Wildcat in .22 cal which is shorter and lighter than the 25 would be an excellent choice. Bill
 
Nothing against Talon SS, but I think you'll find that at the bottom of your list. 

My nod goes to the Taipan. It has everything you want out of a wildcat and more. The taipan short shoulders great (for shorter people 5'8>) and is easier to shoot off hand despite being a little heavier than the wildcat. The only area the wildcat had it in my opinion is that it comes with a case.

Can't say much for cricket or vulcan, but have heard great things about them. Don't forget about Edgun as well.
