Hi there,

Does anyone out there know about these two match air rifles?
Could you please advise me which one is more superior than the other in terms of quality and accuracy?

Thanks.
Raymond

If you are looking at used rifles, I would recommend choosing based on condition. Both rifles are from the same era, both are high quality, both function in a similar manner, and the accuracy of the two is the same. If you ever want to put a scope on the rifle, the Anschutz would be the choice.

Other than that, pick the one in better shape.

Agree with comments above EXCEPT: the Anschutz LG380 comes with an adustable cheekpeice, while only the FWB 300S Universal has this feature... the FWB300S, FWB400S match, FWB 300S Mini and FWB300S Match-L all have fixed cheekpeices.

Premiums exist for LG380's in walnut and/or with a non-plastic cheekpeice as these are uncommon

Condition (appearane & performance) and completness (orignial manual, test target, accessories and orignial parts) worthy of consideration.

I enjoy shooting my LG380 more than my CA2002. It has nice weight, nice balance, lower noise, and lots of wood. All of these things outweigh the need for manual cocking which in any case becomes second nature and quite rythmical during a shoot. The lack of visible action motion at firing is a big plus over the FWB. I would never sell it.
Good Luck
John
