I owned an HW25. A small gun made only for plinking really. I could put 10 shots under a nickel at 15 feet. Off hand. Incredibly accurate little gun. Not much of a game gun for anything bigger than mice. I owned a Walther made in Spain in .25. It was a killer, but it was way too long and cumbersome. One of the biggest problems with some of the better air rifles is their lack of portability for hunting. Not all. But many. I wished this were a .22, but beggars can't be choosers. It's accurate and will do the job for what I require. And it's a joy to carry! May scope it sometime. My eyes aren't what they used to be, but that detracts from the carry-a-bility thing. Besides that, I found that most adjustable objective air rifle scopes required a good shooting stand if you wanted time to fiddle and focus. Not exactly good for running game. The way .22 ammo has been lately regarding price and availability, I can also shoot this all day for just a few dollars. Very efficient practice. My Father demanded that we never own a "BB" gun. We would learn to shoot a real rifle and respect it, but I think there is a place for teaching young shooters with an air-rifle. Norman4
