I looked at it myself. Looking forward to seeing some reviews.

I'm looking to pre-order.
If it meets 75% of its specs it will be a monster.

[DirtyGator]

I'm leaning into it also. A .25 slugger would be nice.

 

[Dr. Kralenstein]

Definitely interested. Its a Zelos on roids!

 

[MrP]

looking forward to seeing reports by AGN users for sure.

 

[BABz58]

I’ll pre order asap

 

[CanMike]

Looks interesting. Price is going to be outstanding I’m sure. At least 50% of an Impact. That alone will drive sales.

And where you supposed to install a bipod?
C'mon manufacturers!

Just like the zelos or m60b, on that teeny tiny little pic rail just in front of the trigger. You may have to zoom and get out a loupe to see it, but it's there!

Don't tell me someone's would actually have their bipod there? LOL

It's surprisingly well balanced there. Fx impacts are similar too.

Say what you want but having your bipod there gets you nowhere. Okay maybe shooting rats frantically from 20 yards away.

I had a rail extension on my Impact and it was a must. I absolutely hated the original setup. Later on I have made diy improvements on all of my air rifles.
But if you're happy then all is well.

I agree it's not optimal, but i haven't missed a shot yet on all the raccoons it's set up for.

If it sells, the aftermarket will provide extended rails. If not, I can DIY for myself. Definitely, looking forward to this M60 or Zelos on performance enhancing drugs!

 

[zeroc]

I’ll buy one, looks dope

You need to go to a tripod. That's where it's at. Then that position is best.

 

[Joedirt199]

Plenty of options for an extended pic rail or arca rail on the bottom. I have a $20 TUFF rail extender or you can upgrade to Saber for $80.

You need to go to a tripod. That's where it's at. Then that position is best.

Do not go with a light weight tripod. Get one that can handle at least 15bs or more (figure at least 1.5x the weight of your heaviest rifle). You go light weight and they wobble all over the place.

I use:
Coman KX3636 (I got on sale at Aliexpress for $90 currently $122))
Weyllan Quick Release Arca Clamp (Aliexpress $27)
XAMOREST Arca to Picatinny adapter (Aliexpress $15, one for each rifle you want to use on the tripod)

With the Weyllan QR you just mount it on the tripod and then swapping rifles is just flip the switch and slide in the new rifle.

I've been eyeballing these since they were announced. Highly anticipated release, they will sell a ton. LOL @ the 2 slot pic rail though...

Still a rifle / carbine guy at heart, don't see myself with a bullpup and magazine/action right where the cheek wield is.
