Uragan or Cricket II , in .30cal?

[Twinkees_n_Pb]

Hi folks. Am toss between the Uragan .30 vs the Cricket II .30. Anyone out there have at least played with or handled both and can offer some insight please? Not crazy about the bottle looks/format of the Uragan, but heard great things about it between Charles/GeorgiaAir and some current owners. As for the Cricket 2, bullpup w/magazine holders... have not seen any reviews yet to confirm against advertised velocity/power vs accuracy. Thanks in advance.

The .30 Uragán will get more shots and has a non-choked CZ barrel. If you want to shoot slugs at all, get the Uragán.

Ah ok.. option to shoot slugs is definitely a deciding factor also. Interesting. Thanks!

to be exact...

930fps with nsa 47.2gr dbhp's = 90.6fpe

948fps with jsb 50.15 diabolo pellets = 100.1fpe

Awesome! Nice rig. Thanks for the numbers... definitely paints a more appetizing picture

Uragan is my next big buy

With a .30 cal you need lots of air. With a .30cal you need a larger reservoir of regulated air space for each shot.

Uragan wins in both categories. 

I have a Uragan .30 and it shoots lights out!

Enjoy the journey to finding your next .30 cal.

I agree with the Uragan.

I've heard great things about the Cricket but don't have any hands on experience but can say with confidence that the Uragan is a GREAT gun. I have one in .25 and have shot one in .30. Very, very impressed. My favorite gun in my stable. That doesn't include my brand new (delivered yesterday) Delta Wolf. My scope delivery has been delayed...anxious to get it and start shooting but definitely give Uragan 5 out of 5 stars

My Uragan is a 22. But I have a Vulcan 2 in 30 Cal.

The Uragan gives more shots per fill on each caliber, but in terms of accuracy, both, Vulcan and Uragan are outstanding.

It is more expensive, but consider the Uragan King. In 30 Cal is the rifle that gives more shots per fill in the market.

It is very, very easy to adjust the hammer to get the power you want.

Thank you, all ...for your feedback. Sounds like I will go the route of that Uragan .30 hands down, based on performance, though still slightly on the fence on the overall looks... IMO the walnut is not dark enough; black/synthetic too tactical looking, lol. I know I know... stop being so picky. But it is $1600-1800 roughly; I feel my heart has to be all in, or at least close.

Anyway got myself a Taipan Veteran long/ .25 (coffee/ power package, from TalonTunes), for now, so will sit on the fence a bit until I see the review from Charles on the Cricket 2 .30, in two weeks time or so for a full picture of the landscape. As for the Taipan, aside from being what it is, I couldn't resist the beauty and simplicity of it.
