Good review Dan,i had the Webley Raider 12,same gun different stock which i always liked,a typical Kral barrel though very pellet fussy,the magazine loading is one of the best out there,but not a bad rifle for the money
Hi Shane, Yeah it's a heavy bolt on the Puncher Pro too. I do feel that the left handed market is unfairly ignored somewhat in the shooting community. The Air Arms S410's are cracking rifles and they're available in left handed format if you're looking into a PCP, they're more £££'s but they're a lovely rifle.
Hi Wayne, it was great meeting you mate I could've chatted for hours. I'm glad you like the rifle Wayne and any issues at all you know where to find me. Thanks mate and all the best!
Hi Dan, I love the look of this gun but I'm a lefty so it was ruled out, for my first PCP I went for the Walther Rotex RM 8 UC, regulated, 110-120 shots per fill and a moderator as standard. It's accurate and handles well, got what I wanted due in large part to watching how you review your guns so thanks for that bro, the range of pellets you shoot is also very helpful, keep the reviews coming bro, HW110 is on my wanted list now so a BDAGR of that would be appreciated.👍🤩
Hi mate, Yeah the Kral Pro rifles aren't very lefty friendly at the moment which is a shame. The Rotex is an incredibly capable rifle though so you've had a brilliant start. I'll see what I can do about the HW110 but we'll have to do the Remington Airacobra first. Thanks Mr Fish and all the best.
Nice ! not really My thing springers being more up My street but I agree with You Dan , I prefer the look of the Pro over the 500 and the bolt sounds like a centerfire , keep up the good work & thanks for putting up with the foul weather , looking forward to the New Remington Air Cobra , the stock looks like it was poached from the Warhawk but the Looks actually appeal to my eye
Hi Richard! That was quite possibly the worst weather I'd ever shot in but it was a case of now or never unfortunately. That bolt was a weird one to give an opinion on as it's not the smoothest or the lightest but.. I actually really liked it. It feels ridiculously sturdy and positive to use. I'm very excited about the Airacobra as it's a very no frills but solidly built PCP but at a sensible price. The looks remind me of a cross between a HW100 and an S410. Thanks Richard!
Hahaha hi Jon, I thought I'd hear from you on this one. You can definitely see the refinements on your 500 compared to the standard pro. The trigger on yours even if it is uglier is far better and the sidelever is silky smooth compared to the bolt on the Pro. (although I actually quite like it). I could almost sense you cursing at me when I said the standard Pro was prettier haha. Cheers Jon.
Thanks Phillip, it's such a shame we had such crap weather though but I guess it's that time of the year. I also had two Apache Gunships fly over literally right above me probably only about 60ft above the barn. What a noise that was!
I wonder why the power is set so low ? I didn’t expect it to be bang on 12 ft/lb . Does seem low though ? Looks like a nice gun and the stock seems really well made .
Great review as always, now Dan, the wife has taken the Christmas prezzy hint of the nova alpha wood but before she pulls the trigger so to say can you do a review as she will be buying from you. Please please please, I don't wanna have wasted months of hinting only to find out in sub 12 its a pile of poo! Thanks 😉😉😉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Hi Professor Jack! We'll be filming the Empire shortly hopefully. First we'll be looking at the little 220 Cometa but then we'll see what we can do on an Empire. All the best!
Hi Andy! I find the cheaper stuff more interesting if I'm honest, don't get me wrong not all of it is great but you do find some genuine diamonds in the rough. We've got another PCP up next with the new Remington Airacobra but after that I might tackle a Co2 rifle to shake things up. Cheers Andy!
Yes i have pro 500 some rifle as i see loves rifle + wasps...😆...i had a word or two with andy AAR...on the new BSA r10 th...1000 qued ....😢 put a good word for KRAL and your review on the pro 500 ... two pro.. s ... for £1,100 ... .177+ .22...read my commant on that bsa ...nice to see U agen ....hi from ireland ...
Hi Lester, the R10's are nice rifles but as a lot of people are saying these days the mid-range rifles are very quickly approaching the high end gear when it comes to spec and performance. The Kral's already stand out when it comes to capability and lets be fair they're aren't half bad looking neither! If the Kral's came with regulators as standard they'd become a serious problem for the £1k+ rifles.. The Pro 500 is already a good match for the R10 even without one! Thanks Lester and all the best.
Nearly turned video off after 2 mins ,, when it became apparent there was no LEFT HAND option .. yet another rifle that I might have purchased should they have made a left hand version or ambi , nonetheless , a fantastic review , I did watch it all as well , glad it's been discontinued , only because of sour grapes really ... Beautiful gun though ...
Hi Mark, it's a shame about the lack of stock options it's a shame that they don't offer these in an ambidextrous stock. I'm pleased to report though Mark that the Airacobra we'll be reviewing soon is an ambidextrous stock and it comes with a lovely thumbhole as well. Thanks Mark and hang in there mate as you might like what's coming next.
Hey BIG DAN, you need a go fund me account so you may acquire an indoor test building for all your great reviews lol! Anyways thanks for your test of this nice rifle, your friends in the USA!
Hey Phillip! Hahaha we desperately need something mate it's getting ridiculous around here! I was half expecting the camera to come off but the log went as well haha. Thanks Phillip and all the best my American cousin!
Hi Doijaoo, I haven't tested a Gamo yet but by what I've heard the CFX's are great little guns, I've handled a Phox in the past and it was a lovely bit of kit and accurate too. I'll maybe have a chat with Gamo and see what we can do.
@@bigdansairguns83 for the price range is a very good option ... Here in Brazil we have a lot of gasram kits way better than gamo igt gasram ... I wish to make lot of money so I can send you some stuff from Brazil hahaha good luck with your channel mate! Very nice to watch I enjoy a lot! Thanks for making this channel... we airguns lovers appreciate!
@@DoiJaoo Daijaoo that is an absolutely lovely offer it really is and it goes to show just how brilliant the airgun community is. If you ever need anything never hesitate to get in touch with me either here or on the contact us section of our website at bigdansairguns.co.uk. Thanks DoiJaoo!
Hi BD, Thanks for this very nice review, but it comes a bit late for most of us, I'm afraid. Could you turn to one of the still non - discontinued Krals, like the Puncher Breaker bullpup soon ? Also there seem to be a few recent Webley branded pcp's made by Kral that look interesting (Mastiff, Enfour- cer) Big Thanks !
Hi Hendrick! I agree this one was a little late but it may prove interesting for those thinking about the Puncher Pro. We'll see what happens on the Webley front as I don't stock them at the moment unfortunately but I definitely won't rule it out. Cheers mate!
Love your Reviews, can you please leave out the multiple weather/wind reports once you have said it several times it becomes annoying otherwise your reviews are GREAT
Hi Lance, They're very similar looking rifles that's for sure. Although I've got to say my personal favourite in the Daystate range is the Huntsman Regal. Now that's a pretty rifle, not overdone.. no big buddy bottle poking out of the front it's just a smart looking PCP. If only they could make it a break barrel!
Good review Dan,i had the Webley Raider 12,same gun different stock which i always liked,a typical Kral barrel though very pellet fussy,the magazine loading is one of the best out there,but not a bad rifle for the money
Thanks for the review, I like the side lever action, my gun has bolt type, and I’m left handed so this ones off my hit list ,,, cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧

Better and quicker on the right for reloading with lever on the right for lefties
I own this now. Great bit of kit. Thanks Dan top bloke.
Hi Wayne,
it was great meeting you mate I could've chatted for hours.
I'm glad you like the rifle Wayne and any issues at all you know where to find me.
Thanks mate and all the best!
@@bigdansairguns83 Yeh was good to meet you. Definitely could had spoke for ages. Might come down have a shoot in summer 👍🏻

All the best!
@@bigdansairguns83 yes you tooo the nuuuu
Mucking fiserable 😁 ..... nice review Dan ... I like the fact you fight the corner for the cheaper brands of airgun and pellets 👍
Hi Andy!
I find the cheaper stuff more interesting if I'm honest, don't get me wrong not all of it is great but you do find some genuine diamonds in the rough.
We've got another PCP up next with the new Remington Airacobra but after that I might tackle a Co2 rifle to shake things up.

Gamo cfx I got 2 of them ... I liked a lot ... Did u tried ?

What app was used to test the fps
Hi Sam!
We use the Caldwell chronograph which has a free app that you can download straight to your phone. I very highly recommend it.
Hi BD, Thanks for this very nice review, but it comes a bit late for most of us, I'm afraid. Could you turn to one of the still non - discontinued Krals, like the Puncher Breaker bullpup soon ? Also there seem to be a few recent Webley branded pcp's made by Kral that look interesting (Mastiff, Enfour- cer) Big Thanks !
Hi Hendrick!
I agree this one was a little late but it may prove interesting for those thinking about the Puncher Pro.
We'll see what happens on the Webley front as I don't stock them at the moment unfortunately but I definitely won't rule it out.
Cheers mate!
Love your Reviews, can you please leave out the multiple weather/wind reports once you have said it several times it becomes annoying otherwise your reviews are GREAT
the brass thread under the stock looks like it has a bad bur round the thread?
Threads fine. I got a bipod on there no problems.
That barrel is shocking, who makes it?
Nice review Dan, as you say a shame it's not for L hookers.. Thanks for sharing..
Looks like a Daystate Mk4
Hi Lance,
They're very similar looking rifles that's for sure.
Although I've got to say my personal favourite in the Daystate range is the Huntsman Regal. Now that's a pretty rifle, not overdone.. no big buddy bottle poking out of the front it's just a smart looking PCP.
If only they could make it a break barrel!
I have a .20 regal and its a tack driver. despatched many feral pigeons and rats.
That's gagging for some tru-oil
always lose me when you say "110%" ... grrr ...
