Opinions on top all around Bullpup
- Thread starter Lowkey

I guess you also need to decide what a bullpup really is. An Impact in .30 would be an excellent choice, but is it really a bullpup?

A Bullpup is any gun/rifle with the receiver (and magazine) behind the trigger mechanism.
But, there do seem to be a fair amount of rifles that are stretching that thought with very little distance between the two and or with excessively long barrels, and not taking the advantage of the "Bullpup" idea to its rightful design limits, just adding barrel length. In the various Bullpups that shoot high speed projectiles...they were meant to take advantage of having ammo that can kill the bad guy, packaged in small/short packages for maneuvering in tight locations.

If you want a good shot count you basically have 1) Bobcat 2) Impact 3) EdGun.
There may be other lower quality options that I’m missing.
I’d probably pick the Impact from the three.

Although the title is a bit misleading, the OP asks specifically about .30 caliber options in a bullpup.

I'm looking forward to the evanix max air. Won't be out for 6 more months though. Semi auto air actuated. Only one I know of in a larger caliber than .25. Jefferson state is doing preorders now. Not that I'd recommend that, especially considering I've been waiting on a umarex hammer I already paid for since last june

After Derrick’s latest groups with his FX Boss, I’d be interested in the Bobcat .30. Same action and barrel length as the Boss in a somewhat bulky looking but shorter bullpup. It’s air tube capacity of 480cc is the same as a bottle.

The .30 smooth twist Impact I used to own got 56 shots on the reg at over 860 fps with Jsb 44.75 gr pellets. One inch groups at 100 yards easy.My vote would be for that gun.

one feature I'd require in any bullpup is a cocking mechanism forward, like the FX Guns have. Any time you must reach to the rear of the gun to cock, it's unnatural. With the Impact (and Wildcat), cocking is very natural, and incredibly simple.
