If you could only have 1 springer air rifle, what would you choose?

Probably an HW95. Just a very good all around rifle. Superb trigger, reasonable size and weight, very accurate and powerful enough for small game.

I'd give my tx200 the edge for looks, accuracy and trigger, but it is only slightly more accurate and the trigger is only slightly better. The TX is a very heavy rifle however and is a pain to load, so overall hw95.
 
do you have any problems getting pellets for your .20. There's not many choices of pellets for .20
Usually easy to find online. There are usually five choices available at times. Two from HN. three from JSB including the polymer tip hollowpoint. Buy in bulk when you see them because there are dry months once in a while

Just a great all around spring gun to last generations.

No contest. HW97K in .20. Accuracy is incredible. POI shifts are extremely rare over time and conditions. Very little maintenance required.

I have migrated somewhat away from springers in recent years, selling off most of my springer collection, including the.AA variants, Walters, and several very nice and accurate Weihrauch break barrels. The only three I have hung on to are the 97/77 series rifles for the reasons mentioned above.
