The Ripley XL9 is extremely accurate. raftsmanship is superb and looks good. Firing an air rifle with absolutely no kick whatsover is a bit like cheating. So consistently hitting 1p pieces at 80 yards becomes a bit of a bore too after a few tins right ? Wrong !
I have owned Loguns and other pneumatics before but the craftsmanship of the Ripley is in a class of its own.
I may be biased as it is a British rifle but if you know of someone who has one, ask politely if you could try it and feel for yourself. The action is incredibly smooth yet positive and you don't get that worry of jamming pellets like certain other pneumatics.
The one I used was a gold plated XL25 and that was a few years ago - I am still drooling !

Wots the Most Powerful Air Rifle U Can buy in the UK? - ScoobyNet
The best gun IMO is a Theoben Rapid MKII (like mine) or a Ripley XL9, or for less money Air Arms S410 / S200; If you don't fancy charging gear then, Falcon or Theoben.
