Ive got the hp varmint .25 ,ive upgraded it to a huma reg and a carbon fiber 500 cc bottle so i fill to 4500 psi now, i also swapped out the springs and polished everything in the trigger and its still a little heavier than i usually like but its nice and smooth with a crisp break , super accurate and a lot of power
@@jean-claudelaboy9679 I'm not 100% as I have a bottle gun, but if you go on the Huma website or shoot them an email I'm sure you can find out, putting the regulator on my gun made it a different gun it was already accurate but this made it just a crazy dependable tack driver, 1" groups @100 yards My record Shot so far is range finder verified 128 yard head shot on a European starling, Also the first thing I would do is get rid of the folder on the stock make it rigid look on RUclips there are a couple different videos of how to do it it makes it a much more stable gun
Wright on Rick! Yes let them know what we all would like to see from AEA! The barrels are decent but as we know the triggers have a lot to be desired 😆! Power isn't a problem with any of their products as far as I know? Face it they are a very innovative company and like the Zues awsome gun! Would be nice to see a wood stock in that model and not that soft wood that dents with the slightest bump!!! Had the .457 bullpup and stock was very soft! Anyways great job as always Rick keep it up buddy!
Hi :-) Thanks for the rifle review, I am watching your videos to decide what AEA to get for backpacking. The AEA Element looks awesome for the weight but a longer barrel would allow for longer reach+.30 caliber with the cost of almost two more pounds to carry for a change from 16 to 24 inches barrel. *** I could not hear in your video the caliber you used to get that speed ???
Hey Rick , that's a trick looking Rifle 👌 . Yes I wish everybody would use the same filler probes ? . Yes the rifles near perfect. Cheers Simon from England 🇬🇧 👍
I'm a big fan of the AEA line, this one for being unregulated is like it has a regulator from some of the testing I've seen! I would have to put a moderator on it though, neighbors seem to have a problem with ANY noise that goes bang! They actually called the police and complained about Airguns, when it was the roofers on the other neighbors house using NAIL GUNS, LOL 😂🤣😂🤣
Hey can someone tell me how much this HP standard customized regulated edition psi or bars to fill the tank/bottle and how low can I take it down before refilling
I'm so confused. The aea hpbp semi auto bullpup uses all the same parts as This gun does, the same sized airtank, but it does 1400fps with a 17grain .22 and 1100 fps with a 26grain .25 and I've got 75-85fpe from both the .22 and .25 if I use slugs in the 40+grain range. So I'm just like whatsup with this hp standards subpar power? It's only a 55fpe gun somehow? Wtf? It's not like it gets more shots I could get 36 shots and not drop under 73fpe with the HPBP. I was looking for 24in barrels for the assasin ECT but they aren't available, I was thinking that's what would get me the same power since the 12in 14in 18in and 20in and according to their website the ho standards 24in barrel all cant get past 55fpe. I find that quiet stupid. I want to have something that is .22-25 and at least 75fpe. It's to replace 22lr rifles in my life. I like the look of the standard more than the bullpup but man if it's a difference between 55 or 85fpe for the same price then like what's the point of any other semi auto? What's the point of the 100fpe terminator when the $300 cheaper hpbp .25 can hit within 5-12fpe of the terminators power and it has double the penetration. So dumb
I heard some company in europe makes them but you gotta pay like $50 for each mag and shipping so it's not even worth it pretty much. Sucks they can't just make a decent mag
I like my Standard Custom, but hate the trigger. After shooting my FX’s and Benjamin’s as well as my wonderful Element(regulated), I really do not enjoy shooting the Varmint Standard Custom. It’s got good power……. That trigger sucks.
And a high-pull trigger won't be used in a vice like it was for this test, 1721, so getting the same accuracy the vice did won't be accomplished by everyone. I just realized a vice hides the effects of a too-high pull trigger. Agreed tho, it looks like a good design except for those deficiencies. Thanx for the test.
I have 25 cal standard customer with long barrel. I deleted regalator and added 500cc bottle an it doing 1090 fps with 25gr air arm pellets. You got to keep fixing over price magazine. Love the power but cheap built hard to cock with unpredictable trigger. FX impact M3 is the way to go.
He speaks the truth Metal magazine are the way to go instead of cheap plastic

Ya the Varmit is accurate as heck! Don't know if it's different barrel than others?
@@ryankienbaum8894 it's a 24 inch barrel I think it is the only one with the 24 inch barrel
Which regulator from huma fits this gun?

@@bertbccfu9564 i've been meaning to get rid of that folder or welding it shut 😅. But thank you, I'll definitely email them.
I agree with you 100% Bought my lady one and the mags are a problem by no means foster fitting would be a plus indeed
Love your honesty in your reviews, I got exacly that gun, and could not agree more!!!
I agree. No fill probe please!
Def want a foster and metal mags. I can work over the trigger...woooo!
Nice vid!

Great review as always.
let's do this shooter 1721 🎯
Nice if we could get it in the UK 👍

So who is making metal mags in the pcp works? Any manufacturer or after market for any brand?
Daystate/Brocock rifles come with them standard.
@@Ineedcoffee-n4j thank you ... I was like who is stepping up? I thought I saw an AEA with metal mags in a video recently? Maybe I was flashing ... 😂
I think ARES is CNC mag guy. Check Dr. Russ airgun channel
You guys aren't comparing the costs of these guns to all of those 3k dollar guns you talking about... Just saying
I heard some company in europe makes them but you gotta pay like $50 for each mag and shipping so it's not even worth it pretty much. Sucks they can't just make a decent mag

What is the price
Metal mags that don't break. HaHa. Has anyone else ever noticed that none of the reviewers give any gun a "bad" review? Interesting.
And a high-pull trigger won't be used in a vice like it was for this test, 1721, so getting the same accuracy the vice did won't be accomplished by everyone.
I just realized a vice hides the effects of a too-high pull trigger.
Agreed tho, it looks like a good design except for those deficiencies. Thanx for the test.
How long is the barrel?
I have 25 cal standard customer with long barrel. I deleted regalator and added 500cc bottle an it doing 1090 fps with 25gr air arm pellets. You got to keep fixing over price magazine. Love the power but cheap built hard to cock with unpredictable trigger. FX impact M3 is the way to go.
Do a mag dump
