    Brocock/BRK Brocock and FX

    To be honest, I'm curious as well. Mostly because I am considering the XR as my first PCP. I've seen several comments about FX rifles losing their zero often. Is the the case with the XR as well?

    Brocock/BRK Brocock Sniper XR Sahara or Commander XR

    Have you done anything to lighten the trigger? Considering the same rifle, but I'm a trigger snob.

    Any updates on the 170 0db?

    I should clarify my last statement. I am certain I'll end up tinkering--but I don't want to pay a premium price and still have to mod and tinker to get it shooting right. This thread has also turned on on a "what to buy", which was not my intent. In the military aviation field, we often learn...

    That is exactly what I'm trying to avoid. I tend to buy moderately priced PB rifles (Tikkas), and I'm slapping a new custom barrel and stock on before the metal is cool, then spending an equivalent amount on glass. Trying NOT to get into the same modification chain with the PCPs (although I...

    I have a sneaking suspicion I might not be able (or at least willing) to pay the price for AZs work as a first PCP!

    I had read through the first link already. The second is very informative as well. Much like firearms, there are always better options if you are just willing to spend a little more!

    Thanks. I'm trying to resist the urge to buy until I learn a little. I always hate buying, then acquiring a bit of knowledge and realizing I could have done better. Recently went through a whole string of dual sport motorcycles in that process!

    I'm looking at an inexpensive option to start (Urban, Notos, etc), but followed closely with something higher end once I've learned enough to be dangerous. I could even seeing buying the more expensive rifle now and just waiting until I'm a little more knowledgeable before doing much shooting...

    You are correct on my "needs". I have several suppressed rimfires, but there is still a concern with how far the projectile will/can carry beyond the target. I haven't checked to see if there is a scuba shop associated with diving in Lake CdA, Pend Orielle, or Priest, but there is some...

    I'm working on balancing my desire to start small and inexpensively versus my normal modus operandi of going whole hog with high end gucci stuff! I'm going to be selling off some of the powder burners to finance.

    Pesting and target mostly. Hunting would at most be small game, and there isn't a lot of that in Idaho or Wyoming, which are my primary hunting areas.

    N/A Where to begin

    I'm thinking of getting started with PCP. I've got fairly extensive experience with powder burners and reloading, and I've played around with pumps and break barrels since I was a kid, but I know very, very little about PCP. Just reading through the forum tends to make my eyes glass over and my...

    How would you handle this?

    What was your final outcome? adjustment to the shroud, or opening up the moderator endcap?
