Best Budget Airgun 2020? Stoeger XM1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 มิ.ย. 2024
- More often than not Budget PCP air rifles come out and leave us underwhelmed - this one falls distinctly out of that category.
This is the Stoeger XM1 - the new entry level PCP on the block. 50 shots per fill, a moderator and a scope for just over £300 - how does it measure up...

My left ear loved this video. Thank you very much.
😂
Don't even care about the gun after seeing his Allen key technique, imma have to practice that lol
He handles that Allen wrench like a pro
My thought exactly. Never seen anyone being that quick with Allen key
Nice one Jonny!
Good to see a budget end review and a reasoned test. That's the kind of affordable type of gun that gets more people on the road to enjoying this great sport of ours! Few of us can afford or appreciate (say) a Rolls Royce as a first car, but we can aspire to over the years!
Exactly our thoughts. This is a gun that gets people shooting - and that gets our vote
How much price brother
When loading cartridges or just using single shot I pour some pellets into the lid. This makes them easier to pick up and it doesn’t damage the other pellets by digging into them.
Good to know. Thanks 😊
Well made vid! The first decent review about this airgun, I think you just made me buy this one 👌🏻
I have one of these rifles and I absolutely love it. I have though put a Hawk 3x12x50 scope on it. 50 yd accuracy is as good as it gets frankly. Only fault I can find really is the air bottle is just a tad small. I'm getting 40 accurate shots and then it drops off. However the small bottle helps to make it as light as it is. Love it. 👍😉
Great review.. I talked myself out of budget things - when I factor in the cost of all the accessories and usage over a year or two, a few quid more on a nicer bicycle/gun/camera/car/shoes makes little difference financially but a big difference in terms of user enjoyment and ROI
Very good review , nice and lively , with a sense of enthusiasm ... excellent stuff ..
After watching this, I decided this would be a good starting air gun. Thanks for the review.
I have the S20? old break barrel .22 with the wood stock and after zero then three shots can hit 12G primers at 30 yards. not bad for GBP 140. shame the trigger guard was broken on arrival yet the box was undamaged SGC!
Nice review - fair and balanced. Nice entry level PCP to get you into the sport - nowt wrong with starting small, think mine was a PR900W, using a RM8 UC now.
First video of yours I've seen, and first look at this air rifle, and very impressed with both! Definitely a notch or two up on my first forays into the joys of air rifle shooting in the early 70's - a Mibro G27 .22 and Mod 25 .177 with iron sight! Definitely interested in this and subscribed thank you
Easily the best review video ever!
I bought one of these guns, pretty good, then I bought their bullpup version. I love it. Good guns.
Another one from the SPA/artemis stable? The magazine gave it away for me, very similar to the cp1/pr900w or other budget SPA guns.
Does look like it, that does mean it is tunable though. Diana has a version of the pr900 and there is a regulator kit that should fit it
@@jwar238 I know I have the first gen with a huma reg installed. It was my first pcp, great fun and memories and it got me to the dark side hard.
Been looking at this rifle for a little while now, and good like this reviews are scarce, so thanks. Bipod on that rifle is the 2 piece side rail fixer.
As I'm in France where non FAC are sub 20 joules (& I can get the silenced version) but I'd still have liked a bit of chrono.
Bonjour! Je suis en France aussi, et en regardant cette vidéo, je me suis rendu compte qu'il y avait un petit "inlet" cache poussière, à l'endroit ou se met la pièce de la pompe, or la mienne n'avait pas cette pièce à la réception! Sais tu si on peut la trouver, et chez quel vendeur? Merci, et bons tirs à toi !
Hello, I recently bought a small cottage in Normandy & eventually hope to shoot there - a good sized fallen barn offers a good backstop. Things are kinda on hold for a while because of a broken leg 🙄
I bought an old Daystate a few years ago,tbh if this was on the market back then this would’ve been a better choice. I’m more into my shotgun but this looks ideal for the use I need an air rifle for
would be good to see it with the open sights also. good review
That right there is a really cool peashooter awesome looking now if it can group!!! Then I really want one and I’m just gonna go out on a limb and say it’s going to be the number one selling air gun in the world...
Thanks 🙏
Even with the Fortitude being well known for being under powered, every time I see people review it they lay down very respectable groups. So my money will be on a Fortitude (when I get some)
Great video as usual. Keep up the good work
Think my mates poping up later to pick one up of you bud ! good content keep them up very usefull watch
Ordered 1 today, good review mate.
Good job on the video. I could not get the screw on suppressor. So it comes with one kinda bulky and it prevents clear view of the pressure meter. This video provides a lot of good information with OUT a lot of lengthy conversation of the rifle. The most needed information is the amount of penetration you get on the clear jell per hundred feet. Then 200 feet. It would be nice to know if you can plunk a rabbit, chicken or a good size turkey head shot. I have a .177 pump pellet pistol and its good for over 100 feet with standard stock sites. Drop that pigeon right off the power line. So, Im looking for distance with the 22 cal at 1000 fps. Thank you much from USA.
Anyone notice the guns internals are the same as the Diana storm rider and Artemis pr900w, jus a different stock
Have you found if it's possible to change the hammer configuration? I have the impression that it is configured to type to the max which is not great. A chrony does not show me a standard curve for an unregulated PCP (only to go down from the first shot)
Can you do a video on the Stoeger Condor? There are a lot of those O/Us here in the US
Somehow nobody mentions this is the Artemis PR900W in different plastic stock.
Almost forgot. It likes "longer" pellets. Short form pellets tend to be a bit sticky going in and get damaged, resulting in poor accuracy.
Is it good at range and is it powerful. Also is it recommended 4 pest control
Thats actuallyy pretty quiet.
is this better than an x20 suppressor?
Couldn't decide what to get thanks
it looks beautiful!
Each to there own
Hey I know nothing about these rifles but am thinking about getting one, how do you put air into them? can you use a regular air compressor? I just dont want to spend 1000$ to be able to fill the gun
I'm going to buy this for my girlfriend. She will love all the accessories
It's an Artemis pr900w just with a different stock and the price it's nearly £150 more than the pr900w
Spot on. They've actually made it worse by moving the air guage to the danger end rather than the underside Luke the PR900w. Crazy that they are charging twice the price for just a different stock.
With the gauge on the end a huma reg might not remove the gauge on this one.
im thinking that a real accuracy test would be good at 50 yards being serious thanks for the review though
I have one of these rifles and love it. its zeroed at 30 yards, tried it a few times it at 50 yards and hit the target every time, the group was a little open each time cause I didn't take the time to fine tune it but was very happy.
All the unboxing vids I have seen in this don’t seem to contain the silencer, could you confirm if this is an extra?
Your a good new generation gunsmith!
Keep up the good work 🍺
Hi just bought this today. How does magazine rotate pellets if there in back to front? I'm baffled my first pcp.
great review , well done . i do like that gun
I would like to know the same.
So it's been around a while now, how are they doing for reliability and durability please? ATB MMMD
I have a question my handpump when its not connect with the gun it work we kan feel the air going away and when we put it in the gun the air dosent goes in.
Thank you for helping me.
Just watched this, I recently bought the Bullpup version. The side rails are for the Bipods, they don't go under the stock, and come in pairs. The Gamo ones fit, and are about £20 cheeper
Hi which game bipod fits this please?
Great pro-adaptive review!
It seems good for the money. (If acuracey and relibility is ok!) Thats my main concern.
Run it against the air venturi avenger
Avenger is sweet!!! This thing....not so much
Think I'll stick with my Walther rotex rm8 for 300 pounds I think I did well.
I've been thinking of buying the rm8 , would you rate it as an consistently accurate gun ?
I just got a Walther Dominator 1250 .22 for 250 euros in a mint condition and I have to say, Walther is great quality !
Forgot to say...
I did own one but chopped it in for an AA S310.
Nice review.
I have been eyeing up PCPs for a while now (my old springer has really had it) but I would have to save-up a bit longer or dig deeper and go further up market. Whilst I trust Jonny's opinion highly, I just couldn't bring my self to buy something that looks so 'orrible :D How's your BSA inventory ? ;)
"Pro adaptive" and the smirking had me laughing. Oddly, I tried a bargain rifle, and it was so horrible, I called for an RMA# the same day. Mine was the Remington 725VTR, a chinese crossman. Yikes, there was so much wrong with it I would be here forever--- it was the worst rifle I ever fired.
Seems like you made out much better. At least the Stoeger works properly. I've used the Stoeger coach gun as a truck gun for five years. They're very beefy, and work good even when dirty.
what can you expect bro it's chinese made the only chinese product that is good is wuhan virus
@@joseprotacio5654 c'mon dude did you really have to said that man
Sorry i try and avoid anything from that country as a matter of principle. Difficult but i do try
Blakester R. Very nice review....❤️ the Brogue ole chap .....keep up the great reviews.
Wow beautiful airgun ...Sana magkaroon din ako niyan ..thanks
I luv my stoeger xm1 suppressor only had it a week.but went fra diana bandit pcp to it ;) very powerfull to with right pellets.
Best pellets for rabbits?
03:11
The most informative thing in this video was the way you screwed the Allen screws in. Nice spinning technique 👌
How much price
Gun price
How else would you do it? i would do it that way not rocket science.
Nice airgun,I like it.
For the money nice enoff gun
Good rewiev fun to watch
👍👍👍😜🏴🦄🎣😁🤞✌️
Hello, what is the brand and type of silencer.Thanks
An interesting concept. An airgun with out all the pumping or heavy cocking spring. It would be the bane of rabbits!
Is this your first time witnessing a PCP???
PCP has been around for decades mate 😂
Yes, but have you seen these new fangled horseless carriages?
Hi mate r u still in Ringwood? Any way nice video love it take care 👍
I brought one last week. I needed something for murdering squirrels. I can't fault your review. The only thing that I had a problem with is the supplied scope, which is useless due to the exposed turrets. I just put on an old 3X9 that I had spare.
I'm enjoying it. The squirrels are not.
Just witness mark the turrets with a marker or some fingernail polish.
Ive broken it down several times it is regulated. It has the exact same internals as the pr900w gen2.
Hi mate is it an easy job to adjust the regulator ? Thanks
@@stukyuIt’s easy yes but you have to break it down almost completely to reach the reg., unless you have a really long screwdriver that can reach the adjust screw without removing the reg from the air tube. In that case all you gotta do is unscrew the pressure gauge, it’s abit fiddly but can be done. Im getting ~25 regulated shots on my .177 fac, it was 12 out of the box but ofc it lowers your fps quite abit which is fine by me. Just make small adjustments at a time, cw to decrease the reg preasure, ccw to increase it.
@@gigolocan8914 Ok thanks mate will give it a go. But I believe the reg is set at 140 bar but closer to 100 gives a better shot count and a flatter power curve.
@@stukyu Stoeger says it’s set at 125-130, mine fell off the reg at around 140, now it’s around 100. Less power but more consistent shots per fill. GL with it. Edit: I believe i ended up at approx 1/2 turn cw from the factory settings if i remember correctly was awhile ago I messed with it.
Isn't this just a Stormrider/PR900W action, in a different stock?
Absolutely
For 30 yard shooting you may as well get a higher quality springer, from my experience once you know how to shoot them they are just as accurate as this gun at those shorter ranges (Hw97 myself)
The pcp guns come into their own for longer ranges, which then requires regulation for consistency. Plus a pump, maybe a tank, a power supply, for plinking in the countryside 50 shots goes quickly.
Enjoy your reviews.👍
I have an HW97 also. Great short range springer!
My left ear enjoyed this
my left ear enjoyed this video
good design and looks good. But I don't like too much plastic
The video looked pretty good with the eargun. I live in Bangladesh. Is it possible to buy this song from here?
Not from the UK. Maybe there's a distributor in Bangladesh though?
Thank you for your reply. I can't use this beautiful song of the year because there is no Bangladesh.
it is the same gun basically as the Diana Stormrider or the Artemis/SPA PR900. I have a PR900 in full power, shoots 18 grain pellets about 800FPS, gives me about 35 shots (5 magazines) before it falls off the regulator. Also has a very nice wood stock.
It is a re branded Chinese SMK PR900W The addition of a few cheap plastic bits will not make it perform any better or worse than the original.
I want that but if it uses co2 canisters i dont
that hammer bounce...
I joined your channel because you showed me a really cool air gun and I want it I will have it not that one but one...
Which gun? Don’t mind my late self, lmao
What's the strongest accurate and fastest shooting air gun???
The texan
Does this require a FAC? I see it comes in .177 or .22?
no
Its a PR900 in a cheap stock.:-)
Where is best to buy this from please? This will be my first air rifle so any help is much appreciated 👍🏽 thanks a lot
Look up the air venturi Avenger. Way better than this thing, dude.
The producer's website says it is regulated... weird.
Looks amazing
What hand pump is compatible with this rifle
The optional pieces are different SIZES, not just colors or black. ;)
Just visited your website, do you sell guns ?
Why would you not buy a GAMO Phox/GX40/Urban instead of this 🤔
Hm
This is $170, urban is $300
What is the pressure output
How much price dear
Hello! I am in France and I bought an XM1 in .117, which is the same except for the caliber.
I pass over the fact that I am old and with my broken right shoulder I cannot pump at 200 bar (but I ordered a GX CS3 PCP compressor Sold by: ANKUL on Amazon, very expensive, and I'm waiting for him.
But I have some concerns, the smallest being the stock a little short for my big arms, I don't have a thread like on yours, but it is sufficiently silent, but ESPECIALLY, I see, at 10:06 on your video, that you have a kind of inlet against the dust, but mine is delivered without this accessory, and the seller told me that he received them without this accessory. Obviously I will order one in England , if you have an address, or at least, if you could give me the dimensions of yours (diameter, length and material) I will have one made by a friend who is a turner-mechanic who is equipped for that.
I will very much appreciate a response from you, with all my friendship from France.
Have a good time with this rifle.
Charles
How much does it cost
I own a stoeger mx1 1 month and so great fun
during this time of a lot of shooting I used 1500 pellets
I had to unscrew it 5 times because
Pellet Probe it jammed and blocked 😭😭
It makes a very loud click when charging pellet
a nice toy for the garden
It's not good for Pest control
Overall, I don't recommend it
What is the process to buy this airgun?
If only Stoeger would work on the trigger group, they have the making of good rifles...
Good job Mate. Thanks. Nice video/Review.
You never showed how the air compression system works....does it take co2 or what?
Hi Charlie. I can fully understand the views on ‘the table of doom’ as per my short slide show I sent on shooting the rats under mine. As I stated many of us could not shoot our “cartridge’ rifles during lockdown but an air rifle in the back garden gave many that opportunity.
Here in Kent I am fortunately enough to have some very good gun and country shops to choose from.
A new one, recently opened, “Powder Monkey” near Canterbury sold out of all their air rifles from the start of the lock down and had reserves on all rifles when restocked. I have wonder if this upsurge in the interest of air rifles has been ‘new’ shooters wanting some thing to do or regular shooters needing to practice. I hope that it is ‘new’ shooters coming into shooting and , hopefully, many go on to other areas of our sport.
I also wonder if all of the gun trade through out the country has had this upsurge in air rifle sales. Something to think about for a piece in the show perhaps. . Perry Beale....... who absolutely loves RATS. ........ in the scopes cross hairs that’s is
The annoying thing I’ve found about pcp is that you then have to add on about £200 to the cost for the air cylinders unless there’s a cheaper option
Hand pump. Gets you fit!
Alun the ones is found were at a minimum £160, do you know of any cheaper options
@@jarodtutton2721 There are pcp pumps for 50$ around, but i don't how what downsides they might have.
Diana Stormrider in a new skin
were can i get one?
I rather the air ventury avenger. Side lever action, regulated and insane accurate. 300 us dollars. The best budget pcp on the market.
Not available in the U.K (at present). Shame, as it looks really good.
Where do I buy one please
how many the barrel
Tried looking up just for the hell of it but couldn’t find it, is there an official website that folks in the states could buy it?
Like the way u took 1 shot at the bottom deer and not a group 5 Artemis for u 😂
