I agree. The fact that they've kept that bolt action when we're overrun with sidelevers is a winner. So glad that they've come away from those awefull regulators. They could regain my trust in their pcps with one of these. I keep hearing about how light they are as well, now to a piont that's got to be a good thing since carrying around an R10 in the field can't have been an enjoyable experience for the hunters amongst us. OK so it's not an r10 but I think it's a sensible slik looking retreat back to what they know works well for them. Nice job.
All-in-all it's a great rifle. I, for one, think that the bolt suits the gun perfectly. One gripe though; there are lots of reviews that question BSA's love affair with the quirky 13mm dovetail. Why retain it when you're committing time and money to a "complete" redesign? An ideal time to settle for what has become the industry standard and give we customers a decent choice of scope mounts has been missed. Next time, BSA, settle for a 11mm dovetail. P.S. I don't think a picatinny would be right for this gun with its gorgeous stock.
Nah stop putting gauges on the end tube under the barrel it isn't safe. I've had an R10, Ultra and Scorpion but now I have an FX I much prefer their way of doing things.
Carl. FX Dreamline tac. It's way better than the R10 MK2 I had. The Scorpion and Ultra were very good and I enjoyed them. The FX is just more versatile. I can change the calibre, change barrel length tune it on the fly without taking it to pieces. I like it a lot.
The end cap is poorly designed it's only held on by a rubber ring..it won't last long before it falls off... should come with a silencer and side lever version...

This may be what I’m looking for my backyard - Tks for review
I am liking this little rifle.
Terry..we need to see how it shoot's...and why doesn't it come with a moderator as standard...
Barrel not long enough. Ok 12flb what if want in FAC ?? Then air sylinder not going to give many shots ???
Had 2 of these never again
Looks like a Walther barrel
Daystate or Air arms. Nothing else.

Ayup lance which fx have you got and is it any better than the bsa guns

@@roseybut ok thanks for the info lance
Shame about that the old one was a decent air rifle.
The end cap is poorly designed it's only held on by a rubber ring..it won't last long before it falls off... should come with a silencer and side lever version...
Full of faults
What faults did you have?
Ultra crap, too many faults to mention here. Take it away, rework it.
