They look sweet and capable and I bet they handle nicely…🙏 I love my compact PCPs. Am taking my Atomic XR after starlings at noon today… Compacts for me rock in their “outsized” utility… Two from my stable…🤓
Took my Atomic XR with Zulus atop to my local permission to see what I might. There were definitely starlings there and I bagged the twice pictured seven but didn’t bother to recover the others. I like the Zulus, but miss many opportunities when trying to decide to record or not. Going forward...
No way it compares… You own BRKs, does the Microstrike compare? Add up the price of all three of your recent acquisitions = Pathfinder XR, no fiddling or fussing. Unbox, scope and get to shooting tiny groups at the distances you describe. 100 yards is seriously impractical for these small PCPs...
After snow blowing 18” of snow for three hours…🤓 Had a cup of coffee and a BLT and plinked black walnut husks at 30 and 40 yards. Culminating with an icicle, iced at 45 yards, Pathfinder XR sending JSB Exact Jumbo 18s, weather was a balmy 25 degrees…🥶
All the “free” R&D by end users…. led to the Outpost. Proven business model, let the buyers tinker and cobble away. Then incorporate some of those ideas into their next model…🙈🙏
You need an adapter for the extended foster fill provide by AOA… the adapter screws on to the extended foster fill and has a foster nipple on the the other end that will attach to your fill hose…
I consider my Ghost Carbine heavy compared to my Atomics and Pathfinder. The Ghost is not a walkabout PCP for me. Simply too heavy. From a bench or overwatch position while hunting or pesting? Simply awesome…🙏
Sitting by my pellet stove with my Atomic XR nearby, its snowing outside so just hibernating today… Lots of squirrels in the bakyard… They are presently safe from me…
“However HAM is expecting up to 40 Ft/Lbs for the longer-tubed models in .22 caliber.”…
They are nice looking but definitely Gen2 as they no longer have the smaller footprint of the G1 Atomic or Ranger XRs. To me they look more like evolved Concept Lites. So they are sure to be as good, if not...
I got into airguns to shoot pellets… period. I accept the limitations of pellets at 100 yards because the bulk of my sending is sub 70 yards. I have a safe full of firearms if I wanted to send bullets/slugs. Getting into airguns to send out to 100-200 yards and be consistently accurate is simply...
It’s understood that the Compacts are not benchrest competition PCPs. But in other uses? Hunting, pesting, plinking and targets. They perform far beyond their size, my Atomic XR is my main ratter…
