Good Points: A splendid gun to shoot. good ergonomic stock. nicely balanced. rivals any pre charge rifle for accuracy
Bad Points: None what so ever.
General comments: I have been handed down this Feinwerkbau FWB-300S from my father he shot with it in bridgnorth air rifle league fom many years. I joined the same league last season and have just had the gun totally overhauled ready to start this season. during its time with my father to my knowledge he never had it serviced in 20 years so it was well overdue. i had it tested both before and after its service. it was firing at as little as 509 m/sec and is now better than standard reaching a constant 590 m/sec but I'm sure it will settle down to the usual 580 m/sec once its warn in. I was advised to put at least 100 shots through before I commenced this years league which I eagerly did. it feels like brand new to cock and very smooth in all other aspects well worth the £85.00 i paid. i would recommend the fwb 300s to any amateur shooter. thanks for reading.

I have used FWBS and 300Su for 30 years. I have a collection of 5 all in good condition . One, I rebuilt after it was severely damaged in an accident - the stock was in 10 pieces !!. I rebuilt it and set it for 20 yards and won silver in the Worcs County LSR competition.
Using my first 300 purchase in 1974, I won a gold this year in the Eley/Bisley 10M
Handling a springer at comp level is a real challenge against the new pcp models and all the more satisfying to get a result. Looked after, t ...

Recommended for a beginner. After 23 years I started shooting with an airgun again. I bought this gun from a shooting club and my first scores were great (8 points average)

The best thing about this air rifle is its incredible accuracy...I've had mine for a year and got tired of pulverizing smarties at 30 yard because it was too easy...I had read somewhere that it was possible to light matches with it and at the time I thought "yeah right'. Well I set up some wood matches at 30 yards and on the first shot I lit the match (almost had a heart attack right there). I'm using a 3x9 power scope....if you're thinking about buying one of these classics (harder and harder ...

This might upset a few people but I went into a little gun shop to pick up a new BSA Comet for general back garden plinking. The man in the shop persuaded me to buy a second hand 300s for the same money (£150). Thank God he did. An unbelievably good quality gun. As I do not want to kill anything this is ideal for what I need. I look at it almost as much as I shoot it.

I've been into springers for quite a while. Always sporters however. After shooting a friends Diana 66 recoiless match gun though, I was hooked on recoiless springers. I decided on a Feinwerkbau FWB300s for their ease of disassembly and readily available parts. My goal was to try to soup one of these up into a Field Target Gun.
I selected a mini which is about one lb lighter than the 300s full size. My gun had many rounds through it but was still in excellent shape. I took the thing dow ...

Excellent tool, had my Feinwerkbau FWB-300S 10 years now and will not part with it, but have developed a problem. The trigger has broken off and I cannot find any resource to find a part number for the new parts I need. Does anyone know where I might find an exploded diagram of the 300S identifying the various parts by number or where I can seek advice. UK based.

Hi there, this is my first review..
I have been shooting with this Feinwerkbau FWB-300S air rifle for about 4 years now, my first air rifle whas a Diana 16 ( old timer ) and later followed by a El Gamo Cadet Delta .177. In 2001 the FWB 300s came as a xmass gift. It was love at first site.
The FWB 300S has almost no recoil, the rifle is very easy to handle. I used this rifle for a range of 10 meters ( 32.8 feet ) and now I am using the FWB 300S only for shooting crows and shooting pests. Fu ...

I started to shoot at my local club. The first gun i shoot with was a FWB 601, very good. After a couple of months i shoot with the FWB 300 S. These days i have bought my own FWB 300 S. The beauty of the 300 is that i can win a competition regardless of the other competitors real new, modern and expensives rifles.

This is a great gun. I shoot at the Olympic shooting center 2 times a week and competitions often extremely accurate. Any one know where I can get one?

The Feinwerkbau FWB-300S is the rifle that I was introduced to when I first started shooting at my club. My initial though of the 10lbs that it weighs is that it is far too heavy. However as I learned more about indoor target shooting weight is to your advantage and I soon became accustomed to it. After hiring one for a few weeks I had to have my own and luckily I came across a second hand one fully serviced (I understand gold is easier to obtain). The more I use it the more I love it. Easy to l ...

This may be my favorite air rifle. Extremely accurate. Stock ergonomics are superb. The trigger is absolutely great from the factory; needs no adjustment or work at all. If you're looking for a low power (about 6FPE) target rifle, backyard plinker, metal silhouette target class rifle, look no further. The only problem is that you have to wait for someone to die to get one. After five months of looking I finally found mine. I shoot it in the house at 10m silhouette targets every week. It' ...
