Airgun Technologies Can you swap calibers /barrels on the Uragan II?

I have a U2 .22 700mm. About to join a hunting club where hog hunting is only allowed with PCPs, pistols, shotguns, bows, but no regular rifles. Weird. Not sure how a .22 magnum is worse than a 9mm pistol round but rules are rules. The owner of the land is against it. My U2 would be perfect for this, but mine is a .22 slugger set up for raccoons for home. A good .22 heavy slug in the head will kill an average hog I am sure of that. But a .30 would be better. I am sure of that also.

Can this be done? I am sure Tony knows it but I don't want to bug him, not long ago I had to send my rifle in for a new tune and he seams to be extremely busy.

Thanks!

NOT recommended for everyone, but that UII will push a heavy pellet fast.
.22 (and smaller pellets) have been often for pigs. You have to pick your shot, but you'll have to be careful with most airgun calibers (unless you go half inch or so in size)
Look up "Nomadic Pirate" on the GTA- he's used .177 break barrels effectively and humanely

I suppose you could but unfortunately you can’t buy the parts….

Popular to market any quick-change caliber options a platform offers, can't recall ever seeing that for Uragan 2. Unfortunate, think you're correct on .30, my 700mm slugger makes big medicine with Javelin's (Gen 2) 60 grain. WM

Thanks guys! I was thinking the same as I see no kits or parts. The .22 is perfect for my backyard raccoon hunts and everything else. But a .30 would be just as good. I keep my PCPs .22 for noise and air but .30 would be fine. May be time for a trade then. I really like this U2. Hmmmm

Nope, they’re caliber specific.

The calibers can be changed but AGT doesn’t sell caliber kits or barrels. No practical way to source a caliber change.
