Steyr Challenge Hunting for FT

[davit66]

Hello Thom,

I hope all is well.
do you still have this rifle?
any longer term thoughts about shooting in HFT with it?

thanks

Hi Stephan, I did use this gun in a couple matches last year and it shot really well. My hesitation to use it more often is it only gets about 45 shots before needing a refill. That involves carrying either a spare air tube or my mini wingman air tank. Hard to beat the convenience and accuracy of my Royales. I'm planning to shoot my Royale Elite at the ROT in April.

Not thinking of changing are you?

I have a rifle I might want to trade against a Steyer

I have a 700cc bottle that could top this off
I may also be looking to a 12 ft/lb gun.
thanks for the input
