    You can spend thousands and still miss a barn door or spend just enough and enjoy yourself. If you haven't got the talent to start with a million pound won't fix it. Whippet, Russell, a few bang sticks and a flat cap. http://www.smart-tech1st.co.uk

    I dropped my Air ranger round to a mate today for a re seal and he produced a Fx Crown
    That is one fine rifle it was almost identical dimensions to my AR but about half the weight and the fit was superb
    I want one but i cant afford one

    You must have a neck like a Giraffe to be able to see through a scope over the mag then. This sport really is losing its way if this is the future. I see the BSA Ultra now has a fantastic Minelli stock but its still function over form with a low price.

    Wait until you try it, Rob. The on-aim stability is remarkable, and plenty of shooters without extended kneck were incredibly comfortable with it, I assure you.
    If you don't know enough to judge - don't judge

    I was visiting a certain guardian of the squirrels
    I had my Air Ranger next too it a great comparison as they have very very similar dimensions
    Somehow FX have made the crown feel about half the weight as the AR and the styling of the stock could have been custom made for me
    the cheekpiece is definitely higher and the hold on the pistol grip is superb i tend to shoot my AR thumb up rather than use the thumbhole but the thumbhole worked perfectly on the crown
    I tried my mates Impact and wildcat and id say id choose the crown over both
    the cocking mech was also sublime
    Like i said before if i could afford one id order one tomorrow
