As alot of you know, I own two airguns one being my 15" Evol in .22. Im not one to pull a gun out of the box, shoot some shots on target and over chrony then rant and rave. As a user and not an "influencer" in any way, all of my opinions are subjective and good or bad I will share my experiences. I have owned this gun for about 3 years now, and have USED it. Any gun that I own will be for hunting 99% of its use, and mainly pest hunting. I have tuned, tweaked, repaired and shot it extensively, with a number of pests shot literally in the thousands. I have access to mountains, ranches, farms and dairies that I visit regularly when weather permits. Pigeons, Eurasian dove, ground squirrel, starlings and house sparrows are my typical targets across all the spots I go. Now the conditions at these locations are all over the place from hot and dusty, to cold, rainy , windy using trucks, fences, trees, tractors you name it as a rest. Im giving all this context for a reason, and that is ive owned alot of high end guns that have failed me while out in these same conditions. Some have failed multiple times and I ridded them.
The Evol is as reliable as they come, every time I pick the gun up whether its been sitting for awhile or not it is on. I have whacked the barrel countless times on accident without a shred of poi change. Today alone I took out 42 ground squirrels and a handful of pigeons and dove, and the only time I missed was my error either bad wind correction, trigger pull or bad range. The ranges? Anywhere from 35 yards out to as far as 135 yards was my farthest today, cns shots not vitals. Tuned with 21 grain at 940 fps it is a hammer and a laser. I love how there are no external adjustments to get moved (had that happen too many times with a certain Swedish brand)
I didn't really have a real purpose to this post, other than to give props where they're deserved. I am hard on everything I own and only the best tend to keep ending up in my arsenal, and after 3 years of hard use and abuse its as good as the day I got it. These guns are truly a hunters tool.
