I am agreed with Talon on the HW products being the best product for the money. Until you actually shoot one of the German made HW products with the record trigger you do not know what a good trigger is.

They are also offered in all levels of power with the same quality features.

I bought my HW30 specifically to have a high quality low power rifle for back garden shooting.

I do believe that if I were to step up in power I would go with the HW57 or 97 for the fixed barrel, side cocking feature. I doubt that I ever will. the high power springers have little appeal to me. I have cut down the springs on a couple which I already have.

If you wish to tune up one of the old BSA products there are several makers that offer spring kits that duplicate factory performance. New springs, new seal, and some good silicone grease will put an old gun back to good at little real expense.

Thanks MB your advice is the way i’ll go.

With your indoor airgun range a lower power spring gun is ideal, and also for outdoor plinking.

It can be hard work breaking and loading a high power weapon for an hour or so.

Shooting is a pleasure, why make it hard work ?.

After all for hunting small game you’ve got 22LR and 30.06 for large game (lucky you).
