Hatsan Hastan Factor RC Sniper-L (Video Review)

Good video mate....I have the Skout Epoch In .22 and the Hatsan sniper long also In .22 ( I bought mine from Krale ) let me tell you guys IMHO the Hatsan Is no where near as accurate as the Skout no even close the Skout at 100 yards half inch groups the Hatsan maybe a 3" group If Im lucky . Now weather Hatsan has tweaked the gun to shoot better since I bought mine I dont know . After about a week my Hatsan sprung a leak and after around five months I still cant find out where Its leaking from . Anyway If you buy the Hatsan Sniper I hope you have better luck with It than I have .

Thank you for the info on your Sniper L...and the Skout. I can't wait to get my. 22 Epoch barrel. Hatsan quality is not perfect. That's for sure. I have had my own nightmare experience with Hatsan. I am super excited to hear your Skout .22 gets 1/2 inch groups. They said that thier 30 caliber and 22 were the most accurate. I don't like shooting 30 caliber because it's just too expensive. I might as well be shooting real bullets.

Any details on getting the 1/2" groups? Ammo, speed, accessories...other?

That would be whatever pellet was in the video, probably JSB or FX and I'm guessing 25.39gr going about 920 FPS maybe. You can go as slow as 870-890 but as fast as 950 fps usually with 25.39gr or 33.95gr pellets.

For sure I would not shoot them at 1175 fps, that's just click bait for all the people who don't know any better. It worked to. That video actually got some views!
 
Hatsan has no quality. They are really crap.
And yet I have several that just work as designed. Pellets in, pellets out, pests and targets dead. I did break a few things modifying them but that isn't Hatsan's fault. Amazing how after 2-3 years I haven't seen the issues whined so much about. But then most of the whiners have never owned a Hatsan or pretty much any rifle, AEA, they whine about.

Where they do fail is HEAVY.
