Besides fx and daystate what does the group consider the most accurate 25 cal with 34 jsb @ 100?
Looking for the most accurate 25 cal @ 100
- Thread starter Solo1
- Start date
Other than FX and Daystate I would look to Rapid Air Worx (RAW). There are lots of videos of RAW rifle reviews online. The RAW HM1000X is a very respected air rifle.

Visit the bench rest sub forum here. @Centercut won 3rd place in the most recent EBR with a .25 cal? The brand and model slips my mind.

.25 Daystate Red Wolf. .25 King Heavy pellets. I bought the gun less than two months prior to EBR. Other than the 2.5# brass weight the gun is stock. I did use the MidWest Elite Airguns high capacity magazines.

You might also want to look at the Brocock BRK Ghost in .25. Airguns of Arizona has a video and if the 50 yard shots hold out to 100 yards, it should be a contender.
Full disclosure - i have a Red Wolf in .22 and a Brocock Bantam and Sniper XR in .25 and waiting for AoA to call with a .25 Ghost in stock.

If you are looking for the MOST accurate then you might want to look into Thomas guns. At 3500 bucks D/A wolfs still seem to have issues here and there. For a few hundred bones more you get a custom ordered, hand picked, hand lapped, hand polished, custom tuned and accuracy VERIFIED by Mike personally. Down side is the wait is rather long so might want to get in line asap.
For a proven platform at premium but not custom price range the Crown, RAW and Redwolf would be top contenders IMHO. Notice they are all traditional rifles with free floating barrels! They are also all polygon barrels.

Uragan, Vulcan 2 or 3 500 mm from Airgun Technology..
I do not shoot EBR. So I do not know but rifles used in those competitions.

FX Royale 500! Simplicity of design, buttery smooth action & feel, superb accuracy & VERY LOW maintenance. Pellets only (due to Original Smooth Twist barrels). Don't neglect to check out this gem!

@qball - the last time I looked the Delta Wolf was $3K, not $3,500.
Delta Wolf at AoA
Also, I'm not sure how much a Thomas HP-X custom is, but at least $1,000 more than the Delta Wolf I would think. So not "a few hundred bones more". Maybe someone that owns one will chime in?
As far as the "issues", I do agree, the first batch did seem to have issues, but Daystate seems to have corrected those in the latest batches. Yes, the stock Red Wolf is a proven platform - see my post above.
Also, no brand is exempt from problems, even Thomas... My buddy that got one prior to RMAC 2021 had flyer issues at RMAC with his .22 RD Monsters and bought a .22 Daystate Red Wolf to compete in EBR 2021. He's since had those issues remedied and the gun shoots great, but like I said, no brand is exempt.

I have done long range hunting with my Uragan .25 with JSB MKII pellets, nailing GS's out to 160 + yards, bone stock setup using a Athlon Talos 4-16x42 scope, there are others that shoot just as well, RTI Prophet 2 would be a really good candidate and the Taipan Vetran too.

You need to decide what for.
Most bullpups don’t lend themselves well for bentchrest. But tend to the excellent hunters.

Reason im asking is if you look at results from ebr and rmac you see verry few different riffles mentioned mostly fx and daystate. Also after searching thru various mfg web sites there are few guns in 25 that seem to have the power to shoot 34 g pellets to a velocity that would be good @ 100. Its a different story in 30 cal which to me is a bit surprising. I personally think the 34jsb should give an edge but really don’t want to go electronic and the ghost has yet to be proven. I have a m3 and its pretty good just seems to need too much attention to keep them in the 10 ring. Would love to find a 25 that i could pick up and shoot put it in the case till next time and have shoot like it did last time.

All good stuff and recommendations guys. In reality it's still the Nut behine the trigger. Good luck on your quest for a sub moa gun @ 100 yds.

QB, I believe the OP was asking for a .25? I am fairly certain that Thomas’ are only offered in .177 and .22 calibers. As @Centercut pointed out Thomas prices are a bit higher but I won’t quote prices as that is between the OP and Mike to have that discussion, if they so desire?

Good point, given Thomas is full custom it wouldn’t hurt to ask Mike directly if he would make a .25 cal. @thomasair

Ted won EBR one year shooting the 34 grainers at 830fps. Don't let speed dictate your choice as anything shot at over 900fps is going to give more wind drift on pellets anyway. It's a gun, guy, experience trifecta that seems to win, no magic number.

Yes, no brand is flawless but hard for any mass produced product compete with a full custom, fully hand built with hand picked barrel and hand finished by Mike. OP asked for MOST accurate and people spend thousands on finding that one barrel so 1000 dollar more to have Mike find that barrel is a bargain. There aren’t many people in the world that knows how to pick a barrel and on top of that knows how NOT to ruin that good barrel. Compared to what PB precision shooters spend on long range rigs a Thomas is just a toy. A 22LR can run well pass 6k before scope and ammo, AI rigs fly pass 10K in an heart beat and some people still change barrels.
That being said I’ve shot 1/2 MOA with my lowly mass produced Crowns many times when I get lucky with wind so only OP can determine what he is willing to pay for MOST accurate. When someone ask for MOST accurate he/she usually understand the cost and work go along with MOST accurate which is only fractionally better(if shooter is good enough to tell) than very accurate while costing substantially more………or just being a newbie! Hahahaha
