I'm looking into acquiring a Brocock sniper xr Sahara in .177, but I'm trying to see if there is anyone here that has one, so I can pick their brains. I like the length of barrel/shroud to bottle ratio. Any info would be greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance.
Brocock sniper xr sahara .177
- Thread starter rmslim1
- Start date
I've also been looking closely at the Sniper Sahara version - in .22 and would also be interested in feedback from anyone else that owns this rifle. Im at the point of over-researching but I think Im 100% on this gun. I like the compact size / excellent shot count and reliability, durability, and reputation of Brocock. To be honest this is my first PCP so definitely may not be the best to offer observations but Ill let you know initial impressions when I finally place order and it arrives. Ill be shooting this rifle offhand. The other rifles Ive looked at are Katran compact, Impact compact, Brocock Atomic XR, Taipen Vet compact, and Leishy.

I actually have one in .22, they sent it with the wrong colored 0DB but swapped it out. I took this photo when it arrived about a month ago. I haven’t shot it (except for dry) been too busy. All I can say is that it’s built like a tank and quality wise it’s great. It has a four position “click” power switch, I don’t know what position it was set to when they chronied it. I apologize for not providing more info but I don’t think you’d regret your purchase if you chose to purchase it.

Very nice looking BRK....and an old school wooden yardstick too.....Those never lasted at my house growing up. They usually were broken over my A$$ by my mom
