Alright time to decide!

Ok I found the v3 there. How’s shipping? Figured it’ll take a few weeks coming over the pond?
Krale sometimes has faster shipping than the USA. Only issue buying overseas is the possibility of getting it stuck in customs. Doesn’t happen often, but it does happen.

You talk of tried and true. The V3 is just as new as the prophet 2 and cricket tactical. The Uragan would be the tried and true platform if you’re set on Eastern European rifles.

Ya I understand what you are saying, but in terms of the 3 guns in question, rti, cricket 60 and vulcan 3. The v3 I have seen the most about its durability being on point. The more I am thinking on it though, the more I want to be able to swap from 25 to 30 if needed. Which I have heard swapping on the AGT platforms is very difficult to do. I think that I am in awe with the V3 which is why I am so dead set on it. I need to be more open minded with it and keep the options open which is why I keep coming back to AGN and all of the knowledge here. I do like the crown if I am being honest, the looks of a standard rifle over a bullpup is nice to me. I come from powder, so its in my blood. Although, I am scared of how they can be with issues. I think at the end of the day its how you treat your rifle and your maintenance. I do like to tinker and tune but not over the top like mavericks or m3s.

Jl,
Shipping is fast, a week, maybe. You'll have to pay $66 Duty fee to UPS, they'll contact you. No tax paid, shipping cost, around $50. Search, using WorriedMan (under member name) in upper right-hand corner, "Krales" is the search word. I've done a "how-to" on Krales. WM
I actually just read it man, I do think whatever I choose, minus FX, itll be through krale.
 
This has been a tough decision for me, I am looking into my next pcp. 30 cal , reliable, shooting good out of box, and easy to tune if I want to swap ammo around.

I will be hunting with the gun, anything up to coyote.

I was going to order a vulcan 3 but they are out of stock now. I am impatient as it gets. So now I’m looking into another gun.

Main points are reliability, durability and accurate at good distances 100 yards+.

Basically the vulcan 3 but 2nd best option.
Probably not what you want to hear, but maybe this is the perfect time to practice patients.? The Vulcans seem pretty sweet, personally haven’t owned or shot one, but wouldn’t mind. Just might be worth the wait.

Here is an informative video from Air Gun Depot on how easy and simple it is to change calibers on the Crown. This was a big selling point for me. I bought the .25 cal Continuum and just like has been previously mentioned, the 380 barrel is for pesting and squirrels/rabits and the 700 for coyotes. I also bought the heavy slug liner for the 700 barrel and a .22 liner for the 380 barrel. Too easy. As for durbility, FX added a four-screw lockup that is advertised as a big improvement over the earlier version. I am new to PCPs, so I am just going on what I read and see on youtube. Matt Dugger seems to be a knowledgeable and experienced guy, and he is high on the FX Crown FWIW.
Anyway, the Crown is with what I cast my lot, and my compressor just arrived today, so I will be setting it up and filly my bottle and starting to shoot. I love the look of the Crown and how light and nimble is the 380 version. As a certified, full-fledged rifle loony I am also a sucker for nice tradition wood stocks. I was an M-14 Marine (wood stock) in 1972-76 and became a Naval Aviator after that so I didn't do alot of M-16 stuff, so that type of platform doesn't do anything for me. Just a personal preference.
