Whats better – PCP or spring guns?
Both are very good for field target. Both have advantadges and disadvantadges. A spring gun requires more discipline from the shooter to fire accurately on a repeatative basis. However, they can be as accurate as a PCP gun. The advantage of spring guns is that they are a lot less expensive than most PCP guns, you don’t have to worry about running out of air or lubing your pellets. Most shooters will tell you it is easier to shoot a PCP gun accurately. They are more forgiving than are spring guns should you make a small error in your shooting discipline. They are easier to follow through with and they can typically be set to shoot at higher powers with almost no recoil or vibration that you would get with a spring gun. To their disadvantadge is their cost, the fact you have to keep an air tank around, and to extract the most accuracy from them you almost have to lubricate your pellets.
