Not sure yet. I love side aspects of the hps 30 for sure, but this would be the biggest caliber I have. Only one day of shooting and i like it. Need more time to see if I like the 30 as much as I like my 22s.

i just maesaged Tom and told him i am going to start calling mine the Rock because it just lays the smack down. : )

My son helping me with some testing yesterday. Found a good tune for the heavy fx 50.4 pellets. At 100 yards it was stupid easy for not only myself, but my son to hit the head of a rabbit target. I think he shot the thing more than I did.

May have to sel the .177 EdGun he shoot to fund a 30 now. LolView attachment 3431

I don't blame you for that. There's a challenge to the 177, but nothing like stacking lead at longer ranges. I think I will have to get the Evol out today too.
 
Here’s the limited AAA porn I have at the moment. Got the Paradigm .30 a month ago and the Evol .22 15” yesterday (12/16/23).
Appear to be works of art so far.
Both have Element Helix 6-24x50’s on them with FX adjustable ring mounts. Looking forward to some range time soon.

He loves shooting. We are working on getting him ready to go out with me next summer for rabbits. With the R5M he is able to put 10 rounds basically in the same hole. While on the bench it is a little harder for him to get comfortable on the rifle due to the height, but at 50-100 yards he was able to put a pellet in the rabbits head with the rifle.

Now the HPS30.... yeah that really wasn't an issue for him to basically blow out the rabbits head with a full 9 shot magazine.

Have a life sized rabbit target that he will be shooting as soon as we are able to get outside and shoot again. If he can hit that at different locations and positions he is ready. Of course I will be there with my gun as well to make a quick follow up if needed.

Love that stock on your paradigm! It’s beautiful. Where did you find it at? The green laminate stock always shows out of stock on AOA when I look at it.

Funny story there. A Paradigm .30 was on my wants list so I looked on AofA and like you stated, OUT OF STOCK on AofA site.
So being I wasn’t really ready to order yet I emailed AofA and asked what the lead time might be on one. About 10 minutes later Rich at AofA calls my cell phone, I’ve spent way to much of my paychecks there.
He says “Hey Randy, this is Rich at AofA I just happened to have one of those in stock”. I’m like, wow I’m not really ready at the moment I was just curious how long it would take.

Rich has one heck of a sense of humor. He’s dangling this gourmet carrot, telling me “it’s exactly what I want”. I ask if he used to sell used cars. He laughs and keeps dangling that carrot and using all kinds of humor. I finally told him I hate him and said OK I’ll take the money out of the bank and eat Ramen noodles till I repay myself. About a week later it arrived. I’ve only had it to the range twice to sight in out to 50yds. My intended purpose is for hunting at two permissions I have to stop critters from eating the maple syrup tubing, year round. Good times. I had been using my Crown .25, which worked fine but I just couldn’t see myself living without a Paradigm. I was going to keep the two Crowns I have but when the Paradigm got in my hands and ALL the great things I’ve read and watched on AAA’s I sold them and got the Evol .22 15”. I prefer to plink with .22 because of the economy. I also plink with my AA HFT500 .177. It is on par with the AAA’s in my opinion, I plink with it too.
