It seems that the majority of posts here talk about FX rifles. They are good but there are others that are just as good, if not better. I like RAW (Rapid Air Worx) rifles. They have been around a long time and are totally made in the USA. They have a long reputation in the benchrest world and I think you should check them out. I had an HM1000x in .177 caliber built for me by the original designer, Martin Rutterford of Airguns-USA. I have been shooting 100 yd BR using FX .22 and .30 cal rifles but wanted to see if the diminutive .177 could compete in the same venue. Mine shoots 13.4 gr Zan slugs at 1010 fps and I came in third in the last two matches. Not bad for an old fart.
