I’m 72.5. There’s no such thing as long term.I do work in the Legal field so maybe I'm hanging out with too many attorneys hah.
I think the 95 Field Pro is a great choice though if you plan to own long term, in comparison to the 400.

Then, my friend I think the HW is an even better choice! Once you get it please post about the rifle. You have really peaked my interest.I’m 72.5. There’s no such thing as long term.![]()
Some food for thought if you're considering it. I never ran the numbers through Chairgun, but might give you at least a ballpark idea on trajectory .I would choose a UK spec HW95 over the HW50 in .177. Basically the same power level, but the longer barrel will be easier to cock. The short barrel HW50 may be slightly more manuverable in the field if you stalk squirrels or iguanas in the woods, I do not. I would like to get a full power HW95 in .20 to try sometime, may be a good balance of power and trajectory.
I agree the 50 is harder to cock than the 30, just about every springer is harder to cock. The 30 is butter. But I added a Weihrauch suppressor to the 50 and it made it a lot easier to cock. I don’t know about the sound but the leverage was super and only $110., a deal. I just bought the 95 N pro field coming tomorrow. I bought it for many reasons but cocking effor, weight and length were 3 primary requirements. And I can unscrew the OEM weight and screw on an OB160 and not only will it add some leverage it significantly silences the bark. I’ll let you know if it’s true.I had a 50 in .22 for a few months ,it was accurate but a bit harder to cock than an HW30 and less power than my 97 .To me the HW50 is too middle of the road between the two.But if it was your only springer I'd say it fills the niche perfectly.
I prefer heavier guns as I'm an offhand shooter and hunter ,heavy means steady.When I can't carry an 8-9# rifle for a few hours I'll take up golf.
I added the HW moderators to my 30 and 50.They look good and "might" quiet them a little bit.The big advantage as you mentioned is a pickle on the end if the barrel to help cocking them.I agree the 50 is harder to cock than the 30, just about every springer is harder to cock.

I own both just add the Weihrauch suppressors, yes both work and significantly reduce cocking effort.I would choose a UK spec HW95 over the HW50 in .177.

I like your wisdom.OK guys. More instruction must be needed here. There is no dreaded disease involved here. It is simple mathematics. N + 1 = the new number of airguns, where N is the current number of airguns owned. The results are obvious; you must eat Ramen noodles for the remainder of the month! Be Well My Brothers, Bandito.
Love mine. Have only had it a month. I do prefer the older gold trigger vs the new silver. But that’s easy to look past.Reading between the lines, you tweaked my decision with your exceptional lawyer/politician response. Skills honed to not diss anyone or any thing in the slightest. So I spent twice the money and went all in on a new HW95N Walnut Field Pro. What pushed me over the edge was the ability to screw on a 1/2 UNF accessory only on the Field Pro, that's huge. I require as much peace and quiet as possible. Thanks again.
Its a factory HW unit.BABz58 you have a large LDC there. Which one is it again? Be Well Brothers, B.
Hi Friends,
The HW lineup is a bit confusing to me. Is the next step up from the HW50 as far as size and power go the HW95?
If so what's your thoughts on the 95? Is it worth owning If I already have a 30, and 50? What caliber would you choose in the 95?
