    I don't own one but handled one for the first time today. What struck me was how light it was compared to my Pro Target.
    It looked a nice bit of kit!

    Ev2 Mk2

    Got mine on Friday so still setting up but so far its fantastic and very accurate, the stock fits like a glove ( after much playing with all the settings available).

    Thanks for the input on the EV2 MK2.

    Mine is arriving here in the U.S. at my door this Wednesday. I had the original EV2 and was sorry I sold it. After shooting a day with Andy Calpin at the worlds I decided to order another. BTW, it was a pleasure to shoot with Andy and John Costello. Both fine gentlemen and fantastic shooters.

    Hey Carl!

    Yeah, Andy should have gotten a check from AA for all the interest he generated in the new EV2. I know of 3 or 4 people that have ordered int eh last month. I'm even thinking of adding one to the stable next to the Ripley. Sure is a sweet shooter!

    had mine a couple of weeks, so many adjustments on the stock available still fine tuning now. most people i know lengthen hampster pins. Thanks to the guys at Air Arms i have a very rare left handed mk2 EV. absolutely fautless once you find the correct pellets.(mine hates JSB's but loves Daystate 452's) If you are interested, my one is on the Gallery- yes it's wrapped in realtree.

    Question

    Just bought a new EV2 Mk2 yesterday . Now I've done me back in this a.m. and we've got 30mph winds! Somebody up there doesn't like me

    Anyway, whilst I spend the next few days adjusting the stock to fit do any of you Mk2 owners have any tips... preferred pellet, how long to lead-in, barrel cleaning regime, etc.?

    Cheers,
    Steve
    Happy but in pain

    EV2 MK2 arrives !

    Made it here from the UK side of the pond unscathed in perfect functioning order. What a precision piece of equipment. Mine likes JSB 4.51's. I already like the balance and firing behavior of the MK2 better than the original. Wicked piece and a keeper for sure.

    preferred pellets

    Hi just a quicky as i have to run out the door, I use AA pellets, did try a few others, actually put a post on here ref how bad some of them were, thought there was something wrong with the rifle til I put the AA back through it. Groups nice and tight and back on zero. Hope this helps
