    maybe, but i've found the the pellets can drop out of the magazine if you're not careful before loading into the 5a and more than a 5 shot mag would be nice. Perfect - nearly! (i prefer my impact from a balance/shot count/mag size point of view, mines been a good one as has my friend's) the steyr does look very nice though! Make sure whatever pellets you use are a firm fit in the magazine.

    Do they do the scout 5a in .20 ? I can’t find it listed only for the Steyr manual cocking

    speaking to steyr uk a few months ago they were discontinuing the .20. I have the full length and never have found any issues with the barrel coming loose. Best fittings had a steyr adaptor if my memory is correct in both silver and black. Mine runs superb on H&N ftt's. Stupid accuracy from it returning sub half inch groups easily at 60 mtrs. That was indoors off shooting bags with very little input from me apart from touching the trigger!
