I have purchased from Pilkguns and they are very good. They have one .177 ProX in stock and they are placing an order for more soon as I have something on that order.

I don't know if I'd give a kidney up but maybe one testicle for the Pro X. I would like one in .177. Cost is+ a defining factor, than there is service. I hav a SK19 in .22 and a Huben K1 in .25. The SK19 is good but it reminds me of an anorexic crank whore, just skin and bones, finally no problems with it,plenty of power and easily adjustable. The full auto is fun but rarely used. The Huben is all the K is but is easier on the eye and is mouse fart quite. Tried them both to see which one would be a conversion gun to .177, Huben won out.. Go with the Huben.

Any speed difference between the Scout vs Standard Pro-x, in whichever caliber? Dont see the differences posted anywhere.
Also Will it shoot slugs competently? Just want to see what 3k will get me.

No idea I bought the scout for its compactness because I already own 3 Hunting5 semi auto fill sized rifle versions.
Buy an FX Impact to shoot slugs the most accurately bit not Semiauto and the Steyr for pellets.
The LCS SK19 or Hubens are better suited for slugs.

Mr Reeves is likely correct about the accuracy of the Steyr vs the Huben. But for me, the flawless semi auto and extremely acceptable accuracy (not to mention the completely external adjustability for power ) of the Huben is crazy.

Haven't tried the Pro-X, but I don't think I'd be willing to trade my LGB1... which is my favorite backyard plinker

Mine too as far as close range! I've got 8 of the mags so I like to load them all up and shoot flies in the summer. It's precise enough to win a FT match as well, but of course won't knock the targets down. It likes JSB 8.4gr.

A little off-topic... But I'm sure Steyr could sell more airguns if they standardized the magazines for any given calibers. As in, the 177 LP50 won't fit the 177 LGB1, which won't fit the Hunting5 in 177

It's the Scout in 22.
Hi Odoyle
What pellets are you using with this beauty? Also do you have some targets at longer ranges to share with us.
Regards Marko
I only shot it at 40 yards with cheap Wal-Mart CPHPs ragged one hole groups 3/8" and much better with old brown box DISCONTINUED Crosman DIE#1Premiers less than 1/4". Just like shooting 10 yards.
I expect it to do fine with JSB 15.9 and H&N FTT 5.54 Like my other Steyrs prefer as well with the exception of the old DIE#1 Crosman Premiers that do 1/4" or better at 50 yards consistently when seated in the magazines perfectly and barrels shimmed properly.

Now thats funny. But hey, take it however you want. I own 2 Hubens and think they are great hunting machines. I have owned several airguns in the past even Styer. I wouldn't pay that kinda $$ for one that doesn't come shroud or with a pickle. The K-1 has a great shroud sys. plus a lot of other good points.
