£400 is over priced i'm afraid , both can be bought new for £40-60 more plus bits and pieces .

S400 TRADITIONAL SUPER LIGHT £ 447
S400 HUNTER SUPER LIGHT £ 447
S400 DELUXE HIGH GLOSS SUPER LIGHT £ 462
PRO SPORT BEECH £ 458

I agree, £400 is too much for a s400. Generic 3-9 scopes can be had for a fistful of beans, so its just make weight really.

I've been give the prosport to try for a few days nice gun but seems on the heavy side, yes agree they are a too expensive.
The s400 has a gloss stock which I'm not keen on so looks like I'm going to give back to pro sport and look elsewhere.

I would go with a pro sport , but not at the price they are asking
