Hi Dan , Yet another nice PCP , I have to agree I love the idea of snow at Christmas , but the reality is it's too cold for long term comfort when outside shooting , so thanks for toughing it out , I hope You had a Great Christmas and weren't to ill after Your soaking making this video , I'm really looking forward to the Springer tests You have lined up 2023 ,Have a Great New Year , Shoot Straight Stay Safe & Stay Well and see You in 2023.
Hi Richard! Thanks ever so much and I hope you and yours had a wonderful Christmas and a fantastic new year. Yeah I seemed destined to be ill this time but I was determined to get this one out before Christmas. I couldn't say no to all of that snow it was beautiful. Could've done without the rain though.. Our next review should be a very interesting one.. although I haven't aimed it at card yet this is possibly my favourite rifle out of all of them coming up albeit that it's a somewhat controversial one.... A classic too. Thanks Richard and all the best!
Great video & nice rifle dan, will you be doing a review of the kral mortal any time soon, I really fancy one. Have a great Christmas & happy new year 👍🇬🇧
Hi Steve! I absolutely will do in 2023 hopefully maybe even in January. It's definitely a unique looking rifle. Thanks Steve and have a Merry Christmas!
Great review Big Dan. Very impressive rifle I must say especially in those conditions. The Walnut version looks lovely and would be my choice. Hope they do well with this gun.
I'm not alone! Honestly Ed most people I speak to are grumps haha but like yourself I absolutely loved it. Granted I was losing the feeling in my toes during the chrono test but it was worth it. Thanks Ed!
Hey bud! You too matey to you and the family I hope 2023 is treating you well. Yeah we got lucky (or unlucky) as usually darn sarf here in Essex we just get rain while the Scots get the snow. Not this time however! The Rainson's are lovely rifles with a great reg on board too. Fair play to them especially considering this is a "Mk1" of sorts.
Cracking looking rifle, Great review as always. Just bought a Zbrioa Sapsan second hand, was looking at this one & was waiting for you to do a review on this rifle. I agree with you, the walnut one looks great, and the one I would buy. Cracking free hand shooting, one day I hope to get as good as you are at free hand shooting. This rifle will be on my list next year. Looks are subjective, I love it. Have a great Christmas and New year & keep up the entertaining reviews. All the best for the New Year 👍
Hi Brandon! How are you getting on with the Sapsan? We had a couple of the early Mk 1's and sadly didn't get on too well with them but they're a brilliantly made thing and should be laser accurate too with Zbroia's barrel. You give me way to much credit! Most of my shooting is luck based with 10% skill. They're a lovely little rifle the Edge and I might start doing the unrested shooting test with more rifles as it is a huge part of shooting. I recommend everyone shoots elbows on knees if you can as you can't always have the pod deployed when out hunting but you can nearly always get into the kneeling position. It's a handy little skill to have....not that I have it haha. Thanks Brandon!
Hey Baz! I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it mate. It's a good thing this review did go fine as I froze and then soaked my nads off. I weren't going to film it again haha.
Hi Iwan! Not going to lie you would've laughed if you could've seen me during the chrono test.. I was losing the feeling in my toes and had to keep jogging on the spot while sitting down to keep warm haha. Happy to do it though as long as people enjoy the videos. Merry Christmas to you and the family matey!
Dan was that you wimpering at the end or your shoes . Another great video ,always look forward to your reviews . Have a very merry Christmas and see you on here in the New Year 😀
Thanks for the video! I just got mine. Looks great. I feel the barrel can use a barrel band. The heavy moderator pulls the barrel towards the tank. Did you notice that too?
Hey Purple Haze! I have and I've sent my feedback to Rainson, with most silencers it's fine but with the fence post knocker it comes with it definitely droops the barrel.
@@bigdansairguns83 Hi Dan! I think I fixed the issue of the barrel knocking on the tank when moving around with the rifle with the moderator on. I use three very skinny zip ties (black color) zip to each other to make it wrap around the tank. It’s the perfect thickness to fill in the gap between the barrel and the tank when it’s resting. Just cut the excess plastic tips for a cleaner look. I will test the POI with and with out the moderator and see if there is still a shift. This will have to do until a barrel band is made for this rifle.
Merry Xmas to you too ... thanks for all you have done to keep us entertained during the past year .. awesome vids which were ALL extremely well executed in content and narration ... brilliant !
Merry Christmas Mark! Thanks ever so much for the kind comment it really means a lot. I'm hoping to snazz the reviews up a bit in 2023 to change things up a bit. Big Dan's 2.0. 😉
Decided to go to my local gun dealer. To look at the Rainson in your video when I asked him about it he agreed that it was accurate. But he said that trying to adjust the scope was virtually impossible to adjust for height with standard mounts and also the barrel is very flexible. Which he demonstrated I know its a flowting barrel it did seem to me very wobbly. He basically talked me out of buying it.
Hey Paul! I don't understand how he's had issues with adjusting for vertical zero considering in the footage we're using raised mounts which didn't show any problems. In regards to the barrel wobble the barrel can be tightened simply with two grub screws atop the action. That said all free floating barrels have some movement to them.
Really appreciate your reviews Dan as a welcome addition to the "go-to" list. Liking this one quite a bit... Any chance of you opening a Midlands satellite branch any time soon? I have retail and RFD experience 🤔😄 Best wishes to you and yours. See you next year 🙂
Hi Andrew! Haha I'll tell you what when the time comes the job has your name all over it you have my word. Don't suppose you're any good on camera by any chance? Without my ugly mug exposed we might get 3x the views at least! 😅 Merry Christmas Andrew!
hi dan i see there is a hard black case on the table in review under cardboard box ...im guessing this comes with gun like most turkish rifles ....great reviews mate ,keep it up
Thanks Mark! Unfortunately not I'm afraid that's a hard case I used simply to transport the rifle to the farm, the Rainson comes in a cardboard box. That said I plan on nagging A-S-I to include a hard case depending on how it might effect pricing... we'll see how it goes!! Thanks Mark and all the best!
Hi great review considering the price of this gun I think its an absolute bargain. I'm having the same problem with my BSA R10 mk2 carbine. Even the JSB Pellets aren't very good in mine. You got much better groups with the Rainson edge than I have with the R10. Once again great review. And yes I've subscribed and liked the video.
Hi Paul! Thanks ever so much for the kind comment it really means a lot as does your subscription. I'm sorry to hear about your R-10, have you tried cheaper pellets or H&N/RWS pellets through it? A customer of mine says his R-10 loves Field Target Trophies and HN Excite. Could be well worth a go. Thanks Paul and I hope this helps.
@@bigdansairguns83 I'll give them ago. I'll try anything just to get this rifle to actually to shoot straight. Must have tried dozen and a half of pellets of different brands and weights. Very frustrating and annoying considering the price of the gun. Can't fault the build quality just not accurate. Which is the whole point of a rifle. Ps many thanks for your reply.
merry christmas and happy new year Dan .may god give you success and may god bless you and your family.enjoy Christmas parties. your voice really make me happy.
I think a 500cc bottle a bit over the top with a regulated rifle. My Shadow 2 came with a 250 bar steel bottle the same size but it was unregulated (shit too without a reg) but I got a 350cc 200 bar aluminium bottle and reg for it and still get more shots. It's lighter and now made a pretty decent gun out of what was the proverbial sow's ear... it's legal now too which was something the bloody maker couldn't manage. I don't know if that bottle is steel or aluminium but I would hope the latter.
Hey Koi! Mainly outside temperature, I think it was reading -6 at the time of filming off memory and PCP (or air rifles in general) don't like the cold. If I'd been shooting a Co2 rifle the pellet probably wouldn't have cleared the barrel! 😅
Hi Michael! It'd make an excellent FAC rifle with that long barrel and bottle as it should be very air efficient. The reg pressure gauge would make tuning easier too.
Merry Christmas Shane to you and the family! We've got some exciting stuff ahead of us in 23 and some very cool bits of kit to put on camera. Especially the first rifle which I'm absolutely cacking myself to shoot. Thanks Shane and all the best!
Merry Christmas Heath! If they're not now I'm sure they will be, the regs are set at around 110bar which is FAC level really which tells me they'll definitely be available soon if not now.
Hey Chris! It is indeed mate certainly more so than the synthetic! I'm going to be pestering A-S-I for a walnut sporter with that reg... if priced sensibly what a rifle that'd be. Cheers Chris and if you ever want to have a play with the Rainson let me know.
Hey Justin! I'll get you next time you just wait... you just got lucky. Well.. in the end you got lucky anyways as lets be fair that FX wasn't exactly the winners choice was it. You have to laugh as otherwise you'd cry. That said the Orion will be a brilliant gun. Laser accurate too. Cheers Justin and Merry Christmas!
Many THX DAN ! Very nice review again. A pity you could not show max extensions on both butt pad and cheek piece ? As before with the prototype, it strikes me that the breech and barrel is fixed in a rather short block. This is masked somewhat by side mounted pieces of rail. With that massive moderator this may well invite barrel sagging. Is the main scope rail removeable by screws ? BTW, that walnut grip lip looks a bit fragile, so plse be careful with that. MC plus HNY !
Hi Hendrick! Merry Christmas matey! The barrel is held in place by two grub screws. I think the rifle could do with a barrel band or shorter barrel with a smaller silencer but to be fair accuracy didn't seem all that affected during testing. As for the grip of the walnut we haven't had any cases of them snapping yet so all seems good on that front. When we test the Edge again I'll make sure to show off the extensions for you. Thanks Hendrick and I hope you have a brilliant 2023!
Is a reg gauge needed? I would think it's fair to assume that the reg runs at about the pressure indicated at the yellow mark on the main gauge. difficult to tell because the video is out of focus.
Hey Mr T.W.A.T! Sorry... couldn't resist with that name. It's very handy as you'll know exactly when the rifle will be coming off of reg, on top of this it gives you an idea if the regulator is functioning as it should be. The main reason for it however is for people who decide to strip and tune the rifle as you'll know exactly what you've set the regulator to. Thanks bud and all the best!
@@bigdansairguns83 thanks for the explanation personally I try to avoid spending a £1,000 on something and then stripping it down to invalidate the warranty.
Yet again I'll go in to bat for RWS Superfield. Those results are pretty much the same as my Ultras and my Shadow 2 shoot with them. Glad I bought mine in bulk 3 years ago. I bought 30 tins of .177 and 30 .22 saving myself a small fortune over today's prices. The one thing that really pisses me off is club 'mates' who try to buy them off me at the prices per tin I paid in bulk to save ME money, not them, and get all huffy when I say they can have them at the current going rate! They just don't get it. If I want to replace them then that's the price I have to pay!!! As for buying your own compressor.....the number of people who never bothered to call in to say hello before I bought it and after who actually happen to be on their way to fill their bottle.....via a five mile detour to my house...🙄🙄🙄. Shooters eh!
@@bigdansairguns83 I think so Dan good review mate it's a nice looking bit of kit but thought experience spring rifles have a bit of a edge in yery cold weather that's going to be interesting when it warms up a bit you will find the shoot count will go up a bit and I think the ftbs will and accuracy the weather does strange things mate to most things it looks the part I like it mate good review
Hey Dutch! There are similarities with the block but the internals are actually very different. I prefer the walnut too but everyone seems to like the synthetic... they just have no taste!
@@bigdansairguns83 Would those different internals be their own development (expensive to do, especially if you can buy something of the shelf) or a promise of things to come from Kral? I must confess that all my rifles are synthetic, except for an old Benjamin 392 pumper, and I really don't need another one, but those wooden stocks are tempting.
@@dutchsailor6620 Excellent question.. I wouldn't be surprised if the regulator setup in the future ends up finding its way onto Kral's for the reasons you've mentioned. I don't entirely know myself how the warehouse in Turkey works but I know that the Reximex/Kral rifles also have different internals (although some definite similarities). I'd love to go there someday.
Yes and no. Most Turkish rifles are made in the same giant factory but there are multiple different manufacturers within that one building. Although there is definite similarities between some of the brands (the mags are a dead giveaway) most of them have entirely different blocks. A Pretensis block is completely different to a Puncher which is also different to a Rainson and again vastly different to a Kuzey. We've stripped the Rainson as I like to know what makes the rifles tick and the internals are definitely not the same as any Kral barring the safety position. It's interesting stuff what's going on in Turkey.
Hi Case! Each to their own on that one but I can see where you're coming from. I actually like the exposed rear section on the barrel as it shows off the marine finish. Thanks Case!
@@bestyoueverhad100 As long as they still cycle fine try using them a bit more. They should definitely work out of the box but the stiffness should ease after time.
Hi Robert! It's lower than some but the sole reason for this is the conditions. The cold air really doesn't agree with PCP's and both power and shot count suffers as a consequence.
Best airguns reviews on TH-cam
Yeah but I just wish the presenter was a better shot, and I could swear he's got fat.
Haha thanks Darren!

Hi Dan,
Do you think the Edge x producing slightly low ft lbs on the crono was due to the outside temperature or pellet choice?
Hey Koi!
Mainly outside temperature, I think it was reading -6 at the time of filming off memory and PCP (or air rifles in general) don't like the cold.
If I'd been shooting a Co2 rifle the pellet probably wouldn't have cleared the barrel! 😅

@@dutchsailor6620 Excellent question.. I wouldn't be surprised if the regulator setup in the future ends up finding its way onto Kral's for the reasons you've mentioned. I don't entirely know myself how the warehouse in Turkey works but I know that the Reximex/Kral rifles also have different internals (although some definite similarities).
I'd love to go there someday.
Looks like a kral and the mags look like kral mags, so I'm guessing it's like another kral
More like a mirrored Reximex mag (also 14 rounds in 177, 12 in 22).
@@JCE3D it's all kral mate they just oem the actions and mags to other companies
@@JCE3D
Reximex is owned by kral.
Yes and no.
Most Turkish rifles are made in the same giant factory but there are multiple different manufacturers within that one building. Although there is definite similarities between some of the brands (the mags are a dead giveaway) most of them have entirely different blocks. A Pretensis block is completely different to a Puncher which is also different to a Rainson and again vastly different to a Kuzey.
We've stripped the Rainson as I like to know what makes the rifles tick and the internals are definitely not the same as any Kral barring the safety position. It's interesting stuff what's going on in Turkey.
@@bigdansairguns83 yeah definitely pal, there doing some awesome variations for good money.
Nice one dan put your feet up now its christmas.ps got you that bottle of vodka from the embassy knees up, putin sends is regards
Feet up old boy in the warm now with the Springer Spaniel on my feet and the fire going. Merry Christmas old man!
Be great if they covered the entire barrel looks like it's missing a part
Hi Case!
Each to their own on that one but I can see where you're coming from. I actually like the exposed rear section on the barrel as it shows off the marine finish.
Thanks Case!
My mags are pretty stiff
Hey Hec!
Do they cycle correctly? Most mags have a period of running in before they're at their smoothest.
Honestly I just received it like 2 days ago, so their still brand new.
@@bestyoueverhad100 As long as they still cycle fine try using them a bit more. They should definitely work out of the box but the stiffness should ease after time.
👍💯
200 shots from a 500cc bottle on a regulated rifle is imo pretty poor
Hi Robert!
It's lower than some but the sole reason for this is the conditions. The cold air really doesn't agree with PCP's and both power and shot count suffers as a consequence.
Always makes me laugh that a pellet called marksman, is so poor. It really ought to be called… ‘Blind Marksman’ 😂
Hello Dan. at 1230 I almost bet my right horseshoe on, that is a Weihrauch silencer .🥵👹
Good Broooo 🇵🇦
There is no support for this rifle
