- So the guys at the surplus store told me about this mythical rifle that costs a lot and you only have to load once to empty. Naturally I stared researching it. They then let me have a go on one! This thing is a beast. Come take a look at how it works!

CHEERS!

I know I said this would go live Sunday. However I’ve had a minor opp and sitting in bed bored so sharing early for some love. Cheers!🍻
Nice review :) This rifle is lots of fun and great for multiple targets. I have a Huggett moderator on mine and a Pard 008 LRF and a permanently attached bipod which folds up next to the barrel, out of the way when not using it and 3 magazines in total. If you load all magazines before you start, this is ideal for a target rich environment and you never take your finger off the trigger or your eye off the target until the magazine is empty. That, for me, is worth every penny. When loading the magazine into the rifle, point the barrel downwards which ensures the pellets stay in the mag and then it never jams. I’ll never sell this rifle, so the price over its lifetime use isn’t so bad, long term. The Pard and moderator and the bipod still fit in the case when mounted.
I had a scout when they first came out , used it for the midlands based 20y free standing league what runs from January till December... I not only won the league but won it undefeated with that gun ... if you open them up there full of green long life seals build quality is outstanding .. but obviously you pay for it , sadly sold mine but would have another in a heart beat
Great review
@@DavidChapman-qk1cs I thank you.
Am I correct in thinking the Steyr fires the pellets through the magazine and does not put a pellet into the breach/barrel. This is why the Steyr semi auto does not break the UK rules on semi auto guns. Many of the semi autos feed a pellet into the breach therefore when the magazine is removed the gun is still live. Unlike the Steyr once you remove the magazine there is no pellet in the breach. So by removing the magazine even with pellets left in the mag renders the gun safe!
Correct!👍🏻
Had my grey laminate Scout (also from CSS) since October 2021. Absolutely love it & not missed a beat. Unlikely I'll ever sell it.
And quite right, you end up firing one or two carefully then mag dump the rest more or less through the same hole. Go through so many pellets. I have four mags now. It is the only way!
QYS Streamlined Heavy 9.56's are great and what I've been feeding mine past couple years.
Started off with the Steyr barrel adaptor to take a moderator but now have the Steyr barrel shroud (which is about on par with a small moderator like a Donny FL Tatsu). Looks nicer too IMO.
The Scout has a louder bark than the full length version so needs something to tame it.
Amazing! Need to see some pictures with that adapter on. I loved this thing. But I’m getting married in a month so all funds are assigned haha or I’d be contemplating!!
@@tvm-reviewsget one quick before you get married as she won’t let you afterwards lol 😂
@@GMan_A5h hahahaha
It has no threads for a silencer, butt pad is non adjustable, no cheek piece, gauge placed at the muzzle end , no picatinny rail for a bipod and only 1 mag at £3.000£3.500 it’s a bargain!
Haha. Exactly!
Hi, uou wouldn't like the wood grain very bland, you can buy a adapter to fit a mod, the but is ajustable also, enjoying your videos keep them coming
Thank you!🙏
Your aim with the sandbags has greatly improved mate 👍
Thanks 👍 I think it’s the gun not me hahaah
@@tvm-reviews not at all mate, most guns if in a bench vice will shoot pellet on pellet, it's the wobbly meat stick holding that makes the difference 🤣😁
I own one and it's one of the best air rifles I've even had its so much fun and bang on accurate... The only thing with the magazines is that it can be fussy with jsb as they seem to fall out.. I use barracuda 8 from H&N they seat lovely.. Plus get extra magazines as you can easily go through a tin in no time.. And it's brilliant for hunting or pest control.. Definitely my favourite and it ain't cheap but this is a top end rifle..
People who own them absolutely stand by them! They are great bang for your buck and really well made. Cheers!!
That price ouch 😖 but man that thing is gorgeous 💪😎
Yeah! A dream product for sure. One day maybe!🤔
I dont know many people who wouldnt want something like this but man, thats expensive and only one mag!! Looks great, shoots great, Mag looked fiddly? Great review. Lookiong forward to seeing your springer reviews.
Yeah quite fiddly. But having the chance to shoot it. If I had the money would be one to show off. That’s about it really. Springer sooon!
Likely paying for the Steyr name as well in that price. Did your version have the sound-absorbing barrel sleeve option installed to reduce the noise?
It did! Was almost silent
3.5 kg is not light and the price is even heavier 😳 nice review on the stayer pro X tho something you don’t see much of
True! There are heavier just doesn’t feel cumbersome at that weight!
so it has 125 shots per fill. then @ 100 yards what is fps on the first shot?
last shot from 125, what is fps?
assuming one has sited the rifle/scope in before placing chronograph at 100 target
Good questions. I’m saving for a crono. Afraid until I get one I don’t have the stats. Will do on everyone as soon as I do. Cheers!🍻
You have to look down the barrel to see the pressure gauge who designed this.
Seems a lot of people struggle with this. You can look off centre. A lot of air rifles have the gauge here these days. Just off to the side is plenty fine.
😉👍
🍻
Could it do with a bigger shot capacity magazine ? Rips through 10 shots so quickly!
@@milesrudge465 I’d say that’s an issue with user restraint haha. Possibly yeah. I’d definitely expect more than one mag for the price and considering an extra one is another £80 it’s a little cheeky.
@@tvm-reviewsHaha! Was thinking that, I have no self restraint lol! £80, when you’ve done £3k, cheeky as you say!
Had one for 3 years
Best ratting gun u can buy
Worth every penny
Love there is someone who owns one! First hand say to say use experienced response. Cheers!!
Nice bit of kit but there are rifles for ⅓ of the price new that'll do the same. Even a second hand s400 for £400 is just as accurate. But if you've got the money then why not buy one. Each to their own.
100% so much choice. Great to have a go… would I buy it? Only if I had the money burning a hole. And I’ll be honest… it’s got flaws. The magazine is fiddly and can jam easily.
@@tvm-reviews fair enough, I've tried the styer challenge field target and hunting 5. They're both very nice but weren't any more accurate than my setups at a fraction of the price. Like you said if you've got the cash, treat yourself, no point being the richest man in the graveyard.
Yes but they won’t put 10 shots down range in 3 seconds or have Steyrs kudos.
Why do some cars cost 10x others that get you from a to b? Or a £5k watch that does the same job as a £10. one?
I'm curious to know what self indexing rifles are out there particularly at a third of the Steyr besides a Leishy2 which is also on the stratospheric cost side?
Quality 👍
🍻
Way over priced and they can’t even give you two magazines or thread the barrel for a silencer. I have also seen bits fall off of there centre fire rifles on a range. Not Impressed with that price.
I thought a semi automatic air rifle was illegal in the UK, ?
Unfortunately, it is not legal to own and use a true semi automatic air rifle in the UK, but it seems that we are allowed to own and use "Self Indexing" air rifles such as the Steyr. Semi auto - appears to be classed when the pellet is fired whilst already in the barrel.
@@tvm-reviews i looked up the law on these and it's true, but still a bit of a grey area, just my opinion, 😁👍
@@phillipsharpe6459 it is indeed. But yes. It’s the “chambering” that seems to decipher. All the UK shops have these in stock so would be worth a chat see what they say if you’re looking to buy! 👍🏻😎
@@tvm-reviewsyou correct it’s the same as the Ed gun leishy 2 “self indexing” and because they fire from the magazine are legal if the pellet was “chambered” it wouldn’t be
WOW! what a shame about the price :( I agree they could have used the Kral style dual mounts for ease...... by the look on your face that one will be added to your collection :)
Hahaha. Only if this RUclips malarkey takes off a lot quicker than it is. That’s a high price point!!!
