The new BRK Ranger XR2 Compact is now in stock at Airguns of Arizona. Available in .177, .22 and .25 calibers, it’s selling for $1,695.99.
The Ranger XR2 Compact is a part of the expanded Ranger line that the British company first showed at the 2026 British Shooting Show.
The XR2 Compact’s goal is to deliver true ultra-compact performance with an improved shot count compared to the original model., It retains the signature folding stock that makes it ideal for urban pest control, tight spaces, backpacking, and as the ultimate “truck gun.”
The performance is ideal for many pest control applications, combining adequate power with a strong shot count for the diminutive size.
For example, in .177 caliber, the Compact delivers up to 120 shots at the low setting of the the power adjuster/spring adjustment with 8.4 Grain JSB pellets shooting at around 612 FPS.
Up to 13.5 Ft/Lbs is available with both the above settings set to high. That represents about 30 shots around 770 FPS with 10.3 Grain JSB pellets. With 8.4 Grain ammo on high settings on high you get 40 shots at around 810 FPS.
In fact there’s two power adjusters. The side-mounted, three-position power selector controls the transfer port for coarse changes. There’s also a 12-step hammer spring adjuster for fine-tuning power levels.
Overall length varies between 27 1/2 and 30 7/8 Inches long (depending on the stock extension chosen). The length of pull varies likewise between 15 3/4 and 19 Inches.
Base weight is just under 6 Lbs. There’s not many PCP air rifles that are smaller and lighter than this!
The 60 cc HPA tube fills to a maximum 3,625 PSI (250 bar). Of course, there’s an adjustable, two-stage trigger and easy sidelever cocking.
As can be seen from the photographs, a compact riflescope such as the MTC Copperhead 3-12×44 AMD2 is ideal for use on the Ranger XR2 Compact.
HAM hopes to be testing one soon!

The post BRK Ranger XR2 Compact Now At AoA appeared first on Hard Air Magazine.
) as there is something to hold on to now, and secondly the hammerspring adjuster, so you can now plink at a lower power level WITH an increased shotcount. Which (unfortunately) isn’t the case with just the transfer port adjuster on the side, with that you only get a power reduction. (But on the V1 model not bad either, as Steve from AEAC showed us that the accuracy (or rather: the precision!) is much better at a lower velocity) So I shoot mine with CPHPs on the second highest setting, that gives me the best results overall.
