Hi Neil Many thanks for the help today. The Nordic Wolf is fantastic. Livens, very helpful, making the purchase very smooth. Scope is mounted, moderator is on..... Going to the range asap.✌️
Lovely stock but I think it needs some carbon fibre / steel reinforcement bars running through the grip area ( I'm pretty sure they could hide something like that inside a laminate stock?) For the money they cost they should have .
Pretty much 70% of all FX'S at my range have gone back with issues. One guy doubled the price of his rifle on buying barrel's and upgrade's, still not great. Others have just sent them back and bought other brands!!! This is across the board, Dreamlines, Maverick,Crown,Impact, the only guy who hasn't had issues has an early Bobcat ! There are too many Media FX pimps out there for a reason, good brand's sell themselves. 🤔
I agree buddy, I deal with FX's everyday but I do think it's down to the complexity of them AND new owners of them chasing power. We always tell customers to read the manual fully and leave the gun at the factory setting. Daystates are the worst for us, we will not even take one in px....
@@racknload I agree, also have seen FAC versions have less issues, this may lead to the sub12 models problems trying to restrict them. Had the same problem with Airmaks (Katran and Caiman X) but not with AGT. The complexity and number of o-ring and seals in FX's seems to be part of the issues 🤔
I am getting ready to order a crown in .22 and having a hard time deciding between the grs or saber tac. I shoot bench mostly, with some pest control and I would a appreciate your and viewers input. My home range is 200 yards.
@@racknload If I had to choose between this and the hw100 bottle rifle that livens do id take the hw100 every single time , I don't care that folk say the hw100 doesn't have a proper regulator , weirauch say it's a self regulating valve and at the end of the day the accuracy and consistency of the hw100 is every bit as good as any £2500 quid super rifle from FX or daystate , plus no complicated regulators that can breakdown , to me if you want sturdy simplicity and performance the hw100 is by far the better rifle , how ever if you want a sleek looking ,state of the art technically complicated rifle that you have to handle with kid gloves then the FX is for you , Its like comparing a sports car to a top end workhorse pick up , they are both cars but one is a nightmare to use ,look after and get repaired if it breaks down , the other can take a beating and very rarely has any problems ,especially if you get your hw100 serviced every 3 years it will last a life time .
My friend, this rifle is beautiful, I really like your content, congratulations, this stock and top I am from Brazil eu gostaria de ter uma carabina dessa ...aqui não vende esse modelo
Don't think all fx guns are good , i bought a fx dreamline classic from livens about a year and a half ago, absolutely crap ,tryed loads of different pellets in it ,all over the place, at 30 yards, did a straight swap for a air arms ultimate sporter, which by the way is head and shoulders above the fx , couldn't be happier, don't believe the hype, 😁👍
I agree , I've been dumb enough to buy 3 different FX rifles when they first came to market ,verminator mk2 ,impact mk 1and a gladiator mk 2 , each gun went back and forth to the distributer for nearly 9 months before the problems were finally fixed ( or in the case of the impact a replacement rifle had to be sent out ) I've had 3 brand new hw100s in different guises over the years and had no issues of any kind whatsoever , the new BSA r12 looks awesome but if you are thinking of getting one I'd wait 12 months and monitor the forums and TH-cam videos that will either show loads of flaws or show that BSA have got it right , personally I usually wait for around 12 months after a gun comes to retail before I purchase .
FFS sake Neil ,will you stop showing guns that I now NEED in my life and can't rest until I now own one , it's always your bloody reviews that get me opening my wallet ,my wife really hates you mate lol, but I think your sound because you are my excuse when I get caught taking a new rifle from the safe 👍
@@racknload bollox you , apologies to me because I have to listen to get moan that I've spent another 2 grand on a rifle and scope ! I did get a buddy bottle hw100 , I decided to get a stock made and do the mods to my old .177 hw100 , I've got a 300cc carbon bottle on mine and I managed to get a custom made stock in walnut for 350 quid , so to convert a hw100 sported to what is now cost me 675 quid , my favourite rifle I've ever owned ( I couldn't pay 1650 for another gun, especially when I've got a hw100 sitting there and I knew where to get the parts to do it myself ) my thanks go to you and livens for the inspiration ( best fittings sell the 300cc carbon bottle online only) I outshoot most of the weekend shooters with their 2& half grand delta wolf with another grand sitting on top lol, I use an old Bushnell 4x16x44 legend with normal mildot reticule and I love it when these newbies with deep pockets shake their head in dismay as I send 14 pellets all through a 5 p sized target , hw100 in what ever form are a cut above .

Your welcome buddy, enjoy! 🍻🔫
Hi Neil, great review 👍 thanks . This crown rifle is stunning 😍 . Great information on the rifle ... cheers Simon

For the money they cost they should have .
Good video , always like people who show all points most of the others only show the good points
Great Review Cheers Neil 👍👍

I'd go with Saber Tactical. Tougher and most likely lighter for hunting but also more options for a bipod and gucci accessories for bench shooting....
Wish they’d make one of these for the hw1002
Hw100 🤦🏻♀
How does it compare with the HW100 carbon laminate
I personally prefer the HW....

world prettiest Air rifle indeed!

Are they doing a left hander?
Yes
@@racknload Cheers. Seen it. It’s just the stock not the cocking handle. Probably just get the plastic stock in .25.
Wow,better start saving.
Nice lik

It can be said for any make, even rimfire and center fire in my experience...
@@racknload yep but a new air rifle to be so bad , quality control, don't they test them ?😁👍
Nice , very nice ..
FX are the best rifles in the world, just ask all those South Africans that are head shooting doves @ over 250 yards 😊😂🤣
Fx are trouble always have issues the king is still the hw100

I've had 3 brand new hw100s in different guises over the years and had no issues of any kind whatsoever , the new BSA r12 looks awesome but if you are thinking of getting one I'd wait 12 months and monitor the forums and TH-cam videos that will either show loads of flaws or show that BSA have got it right , personally I usually wait for around 12 months after a gun comes to retail before I purchase .
