Daystate Huntsman

[Coney 3]

Does anybody own /shoot one of these as I am after a bit of feedback for a friend off mine....I know there are one or two write up's on these but I would rather listen to someone who uses/used one of these in the field as their feedback is not sell,sell,sell.

 

Many thanks

Coney.

brilliant rifles!!!!! the mk1 huntsman was mostly made out of brass they were one of the first decent pcp's...they are easy to tune upto 35ftp..very accurate when tuned properly..the mk2 had more alloy inside. the triggers are easy to tune,the standard stocks arnt so clever but the custom stocks are very good...the first ones came out in the mid 1980's............

Pm Rabbit Killer Im Sure His Mate Has One?

your right gilly

 

my shooting partner has one i use it aswell imho for what its worth lol

 

we go out quite a lot and it gets put through its paces

this gun is super light verry well ballenced verry acurate and a joy to use

the stock is fine by the way i think he was talking about the older ones

 

with a hog silencer they are new out this thing is whisper quiet and better than the weriach we have both for all you lot that havent seen a hog or herd one they are the dogs bussiness trust me!!

 

this gun will take a bunnie clean at 50 yards i posted a 64 yard shot not so long ago i had it in sight the weather was right no wind it was a calm night i took aim and twack as they say game over for buggsy jumped out of the motor and thought shit that was far out and decided to count the paces and it was aprox 64 yards clean head shot now i probly wont do it again getting a lot better with my distances now but im just telling you what i know about the huntsman

 

as for consistancy we zeroed it at 35 yards 40 yards and 45 yards all with aprox 1 inch group and after we are finished with every zero sesshion we shoot a 20 pence off the wall at what ever we zero at so we no its spot on if you can hit a 20p at 50 yards your gona drop fluffy ears

 

all in all i think this is a spot on rifle if you like the look of it and it feels good then you will not be unhappy with it!!

 

the only bad thing i have to say about this is i find it a bit fidly getting the magazine back in but i do have fat finger syndrome :11:

oh and the mag is a dream to load especialy with accupell his one runs best on them

Had one in the mid 90's sold it about 2000.

 

Can't remember if it was a Mk1 or what, but it did have a lot of brass on it, but it was single shot and pellet loading was fiddly, liked accupels and yes it was good! Mine was 12 to start with then pushed it up to 30ft lb. Very accurate and easy to fix when things fell off it....only sold it to get a magazine and single bolt action cocking and loading!
