RX2 .20 cal in the squirrel woods

[ChuckHunter]

Took one of my gas rammers for a walk along the creek bank this afternoon...only in the low 50's here today but partly sunny and not much wind...saw this nutter at 35 yards and put one right in his ear hole! Not alot of action today but had a great walk and some fresh air!!!

Self contained, locked and loaded for nutters always works with the RX2. I've owned 2 in .22 and my cousin had to have one so I gave it to him for 400.00 with a Bushnell 4X12 Trophy scope and pellets. I've taken out a number of greys with it but I had to have another one and AOA had one that I purchased new 2 me, great shot!

That's what I have on this one but it's 6-18×40 ! Older Japan model that seems to be holding up well...after getting the trigger set to my liking this .20 is a laser beam with JSBs!

My RX2 also has an old trophy 4-12. It had a 6-18 like yours back 15-20 years ago but the rifle knocked the windage turret off the tube. Haha. I think I just had a bad one, Bushnell took care of it.

That sure is a purtee gun! Nice shooting too. I probably get a lot more shooting action here at home than if I go out for a hunt, but I think I'd be willing to trade. Nothing like getting out for a nice hike and enjoying the woods. Used to say on the boat back in the day: It's called fishing, not catching.

What kind of velocity does your RX2 put out James? Still wish I kept my RX1 in 5mm that l had in the mid 90's. It to was a laser and potent with the long gone Japanese Beeman Silver Jets. 11 gr @910 fps

I recently turned mine down from 20 to 12ftlb. Back when I bought it new the high power gas ram worked for me as a self contained hunter. But now with carbon bottles and high shot count pcps I just wasn’t shooting the RX2 that much. At its lower power it is a real joy to shoot in the yard and back in the rotation regularly.

Nice accuracy and what a beautiful stock!

I'm sorry for not answering your post earlier because I've not shot it in quite some time but I only shoot Beeman Kodiaks in my RX2, maybe one day I'll take out the chronograph to see what it's shooting.

I found this post and need some help from folks who own similar rifles! So I have an HW90 in .20 and absolutely love the gun, I really want to hang onto it, I just can’t for the life of me get the thing to shoot consistently. I’ve owned plenty of HW springers in the past and never had this issue. Today I shot a 5 shot group well under a dime a 30yards, took a break and shot my marauder and when I picked up the 90 again it was shooting an inch left and a half inch low. I’m almost ready to sell the thing and pick up a 97. Any advice would be great!

I would make sure the stock screws are tight and the trigger guard screws. My old RX needed to be tightened down every now and then.

 

[TNairgunner.3]

Oh yea definitely locked them down. Didn’t gorilla fist them but they are snug.

The other thing to check is the breech Oring. That can effect things as well. If it's worn and not sealing, could be an issue.
