I seems that we have very close taste in air rifles!

Those older Match rifles are sweet. My lust is currently directed at a Diana 75. This is the hot-shooting, GISS System dual piston rig. They are amazing...just need to find one when funds are available...LOL
cheers,
Douglas

I sold my 75 about two years back.The seals were going and it was a $400 rebiuld.The GISS is a pain to rebuild i heard so i didnt attempt it.It sure was a sweet shooter.

That looks a lot like the FWB 300 that I had back in the late 70's. Very frustrating gun to shoot simply because if you missed you couldn't blame it on the gun.
I have an Ace of Clubs that has 10 shots thru a hole less than .25 in dia. I shot this over a rest and was the best I have ever done.
I traded it to a dentist for a root canal. Big mistake.

I have one that shoots real well. I got it at a gunshow a few years back. Mine is marked Daisy, so at one time I guess they were the importers of FWB.

I have a left hand stocked FWB 300 and maybe someday I will be able to shoot it to it's potential. Good choice you will enjoy it.

No you won't,,, and neither will anybody else.:target_smiley:
Incidentally the action life on those guns is purported by FWB to be 6 Million Rounds! You'll never wear it out either.
