I have the AA TDR in .177 with an Altaros regulator for the night vision. Cracking little set up.

Irrespective of calibre, what's wrong with a tuned S410? Does not need a regulator and has a lower shot-by-shot fps variability of just about any regged gun. I've had my S410 Carbine recently tuned and it gives 3fps shot by shot in the sweet spot and a total of 8fps difference over 65 - 70 shots (all measured by chrono). On the targets downrange, dead on for 70 shots. This was all done by an independent RFD, one I shall return to again with my S410 Classic in the near future. ;)

I already own an s410 thumbhole walnut classic and have had a couple 400's in carbine all .22

Ok so shouldered the hw100 sporter stock and like it very much also liked the feel of the r10 in the shoulder, but I went and shouldered something else and very much like the feel and looks of it. While the hw gets rave reviews by the bucke load I was wondering if anyone here owns a daystate huntsman regal? And if they could give me some feedback. It's going to be between the regal and hw.
Airgun center is also supplying the regal with custom huggett shroud and silencer which absolutely looks gorgeous. Thanks again guys.

Not on your shortlist but, why not compliment your PCP with a .177 TX200, more consistent than a PCP (regged or not), no need for compressed air, can be stripped and serviced / fettled in 5 mins, great fun to shoot....
Just a thought ;)

Hi Phill I'm sure there's plenty that can help I'm very familiar with the internals. As are a lot of members here. Can I ask where you are from?
