There are a few people around here in the Bellingham, WA area- but I don't think any of them own an Evanix AR6. It's power level seems a bit too much for a .177 or .22 caliber airgun- how do you find it's accuracy when it's set on full power?

This one is pretty good for a 2" 24 shot group at 50m set at mid to low 600fps with 16grain JSB exacts.
Might be a tighter group with a scope, but 2" is soda can accurate, which is just fine for a 16fpe plinker.
It is kinda loud though . . .

I am so NEW... hehehe
I dont have my gun yet. I will be shipped this week.

The reviews are that it is very accurate at 50-75 yards.
Take down ground hog and turkey at 50-60 yds.
1250 fps on most pelets.

But I have not been hunting sence I was a kid in Iowa,,, hehehe,,,

So im looking for some info on who likes to hunt and where around Bellingham area. ???
And who hunts with PCP rifles.?

That sounds good, i just bought the ar6 pistol a couple days ago which is my first pcp. I'am gonna fine tune the leapers red/green dot this weekend. How are you adjusting the power on the pistol? Thanks, bill2

Hi Bendar, I have a Evanix AR6 its a great gun. Theres seems to be a fair bit of dislike for them for some reaion usaly from people that have never seen one let alone use one Faq-U . I think there early models wern't the best and thats were the dislike stems from.
I really can't fined any real bad points about it other than its dam noisey
and you only get 15 full power shots from it mined you it dose send a 29gr pellet at 1000+fps with 65ftlbs.
It took me a while to get it sited but now I'm able to head shot rabbits at
70+ metres most of the time and below 40/50 metres just hit them and they drop. They seem to really like bipods "but most guns do"
I think they are a good thing. I don't regret buying it Smile .
Mines the single power option model the Hi/Lo version is a bit better on air usage Question

There is a new version with bolt action, that is probably a bit more economical with air.
