HAve tried bull pups...not really my thing but not harm to those who like them. Just not seeing the benefit. Will give them that they are shorter, and that tould be a plus in close confines...but other than that, have not seen a plus category in my shooting of airguns (I'm not doing house-to-house combat or any other form of shooting that could take advanatage of shorter-is-better type of shooting)l.
So,,,as for me...a bull pup may as wellbe a "bull pus".....maybe it does have attibutes for shooter who need that shortness, they just don't have a burning need for me.

Gotta say that I use my KalibrGun Cricket .25cal bullpup more often than my full length PCP rifles. Mostly because of its outstanding accuracy and devastating power. I can definitely see the advantage of a shorter package if hunting, but if I am doing a range day and shooting from a bench there is no size advantage.
As long as the accuracy is the same in the HW100 pup vs rifle, new shooters would likely be attracted to the smaller package. I think it is a fine move on the part of HW.
