I am looking to get a rifle that is not an FX. Not saying anything is wrong with FX, I still have a few of them but would like to try something new. What company would you guys recommend? I was thinking to try AGT..anyway thanks for your input and opinions!
N/A What else?
- Thread starter AllThingsAir
- Start date
The Ukraine , Chek guns of TAIPAN, KALIBER, AGT and a few others have been really solid guns with most sporting CZ barrels which shoot great !!!
Most have been in Bull pup configurations, long gun/traditional types not so much.
Tho do be warned ... major parts if needed has never been very available, so shop wisely researching that if it matters ?
Domestically .... May wish to look at RAW

I have a Vixen and it has taken thousands of pigeons. Super reliable, robust and accurate, which is how I describe my Taipans too. I’ll echo Scott’s RAW suggestion too, although they lean more towards bench guns while the Czech guns lean more towards hunting platforms.

Crickets are good shooters but I could not get comfortable with their clumsy magazine changes.

I was/am a traditional sporter conformist with both PCP and Springers; UNTIL I recently purchased an Airforce CondorSS in .22....WOW is the word....mid 900's in velocity and low to mid 50's in energy....stock out of the box punching the same hole at 40 yds...nice pattern at 75! Super quiet.. Threw a scope in it, now that is just about all I shoot.....grab and go! Made in Texas for 20 some odd years....

I would suggest you give the BRK lineup a look over… A deep bench with sweet, solid, in the field performers. Good times ahead for you, whichever brand you choose… The simple joy of shopping for a new toy…

In order to help you best, please let us know what you are looking to accomplish.
FT, HFT, 50 yard benchrest, 100 yard benchrest, ELR, hunting....
Traditional rifle, or bullpup?
Caliber/power desired?
Budget?
Experience?
Each of these will have a huge effect on the direction we should try to point you.
It's a bit like asking what's the best food? Shrimp? Not if you have a shellfish allergy!
What's the best car? Toyota Corolla? Not if you are trying to set a lap record at Sebring!
Not poking fun; I genuinely want to help you get where you want to be.

What type of shooting do you want to do with the new rifle? Are there any necessary requirements? It makes a difference what guns people will recommend.
I don't think there is one brand perfect across their entire line up of guns. Some models are better than others. New technology can have issues.

Haha very true indeed! I guess that kind of info would help. I am looking for a .25 or a .30 light and compact for walking around the farm and woods. I do have a liking for the Vixen and a nicely modded Notos. Being compact I will assume a nice bullpup in .25 or .30. Suggestions? I have expierence and as far as price, I'd like to stay below 1500 if possible.

Uragan 3 600mm .22 hands down one of the best pcp I ever owned… a more on point recommendation would need more input from you, like what you’re preferences are, what you’re going to use it for etc. I’m in love with my mora as well but if I only could have one and only one I think it’d be the U3. It has an annoying action noise though. If the mora wouldn’t be the heavy beast it is it would be the mora.

I'm a fan of the AirForce utility guns. So easy to maintain and modify. I have a TalonSS that the only original parts left are the frame and the power wheel. Crank up the reg pressure and .22 H&N Baracuda Match at 1050FPS and 70FPE.
With regulator and plenum my .25 Condor can fire JTS 39gr at 900fps at 1750psi.
