PCP Eyeballing an Air Arms HFT500

[PasadenaMike]

I’ve been eyeballing AA PCPs for a while. This rig looks amazing for HFT. It’s a 12 fpe HFT setup. One of my club members owns one and it’s awesome. The interesting thing is that it’s not regulated but apparently it’s so well balanced that it’s like it’s regulated. At least it’s a low pressure fill (not 250 bar). It’s either this or a s500 or a s510. The only thing stopping me is i don’t have room in the safe and setting up an HFT rig takes a bit of work but it sure is a beautiful rig. Besides my FX Dreamtact does a good job.

Lol that FX gonna be sweating if you buy this! Absolutely recommend it if you can swing it..... we won't talk about if you should or not that's a you problem The S-series AA are so smooth they often get complained about being too 'dead'. If single loading and regulation is preferred then go s500. Much bigger loading slot. If u want the (2) mags and regulation S510 all the way. Once you decide that you have plenty of stocks to pick from! Imagine the accuracy of your TX. Except better. And 10 rounds. No recoil. Just as pretty.The S510 is the best all around. Bench? yup, hft? yup. Hunting? BIG YUP!

I agree you would be shooting at a disadvantage shooting 12 fpe against 20 fpe and if you like the laminated stock go for the ultimate!

We liked the HFT500 when we tested it many years ago in HAM Air Arms HFT 500 Air Rifle Test Review

Doug Rogers - our PCP tester liked it so much that he purchased the test gun...

I can’t yet I’m still paying for the Katran. PayPal credit offers 6 months zero percent on $100 or more in purchases so I’m knocking that down. Once paid we can do the next thing

One of my field target club members owns one. It’s nice!!

 

[PasadenaMike]

I can imagine being a gun tester. Actually that would be a horrible idea. It’s like me being a food tester. Bad idea

There’s always a place to put it

Ultimate Sporter topped with a Sightron what organs aren’t really necessary again? Actually if we’re selling organs might as well get a Steyr LG110

I can probably get that too selling organs no needed

Ya know its kinda funny sitting here thinking about this. I have a red wolf very accurate gun, i have a revere another very accurate gun but the ghost on styx is just amazing anyway for me cause i am almost as accurate with it as if i were shooting from the bench!!!
