New rifle Altaros M24 TCS

Looks great. Any upgrades to the rifle itself or this just a chassis upgrade?

Great looking chassis.

Will the rifle work in any 700 style chassis?

We gotta get one of these!!!

Very nice B&O designers would have been proud to design this.
Just too bad i can not have it being locked to 4.5 mm by my evil rulers.

Wow! That thing looks sick! Are there 12 round .22 magazines for NRL22 available? Last I saw I think the max was 5 rounds.

Does the M24 hold enough air to shoot 12 rounds at a FPE level to be competitive enough at this game?

I was under the impression that at about 70ish fpe it was. I'd love to get my hands on one of these somehow for a review, but at this point I know next to nothing about it. Seems neat, though.

Air volume is the problem, you can find the older thread where they introduced the magazine. Not close to enough for NRL22 / PRS (yet???)

Edit:

tl;dr
.22 cal 10 shots @ 63 fpe

Do these stil have the Plastic ABS receivers or are these upgraded to an aluminum or steel receivers ?

There is very very little interest in the 4.5mm caliber

Yes it is a struggling caliber, even if it is also quite fine if you do not have long range in mind, or need a lot of take down power.
I also some time worry that it might get ditched all together, at least some models from various brands do not come in 4.5 mm.
I would also shoot larger if i could, well at least a little larger, but the people calling them selv my superiors and protectors have a very high cost.
I am only glad i stopped voting a long time ago, so at least on this issue it is not me digging my own grave so to say.

At least Denmark are FAC so we got that, i am just afraid even that is on borrowed time, so lucky i am not a young person.

The sole reason air rifles here are bundled in with hunting and sports firearms is the laziness of our politicians, never doing anything right,
Like just now they are once again saving costal waters from dying off totally mainly due to run off from the super intensive farming here, they tried that 20 years ago, with more or less the same approach they are using again,,,,,, which is generally taking tax money and throwing them at something and hope it stick.

My eyes are always open for something new and good in 4.5 mm

but even higher velocity , or number of shots per fill can be increased and even retrospectively on already sold models, it is just not in our power to introduce everything at once. The new stock is also backwards compatible with older M24s.

This is exciting to hear! I'm also a fan of the new chassis, I didn't mean to imply I wasn't. When you get around to introducing something to increase power and shot count it will definitely be worth revisiting. In my experience so far, I'd want to see between 905 and 955 fps with the 40 gr Kings, for around 18 shots. I know most people are looking for 12 shots... but I regularly shoot PRS matches with 15 to 18 round stages. Nationals this year actually had a 20 round stage. In an extreme situation like that you could get by with a few shots off the reg (probably). But less than 15 will be leaving points on the floor too often.
