Really enjoy the budget rifle review’s Richard, please keep them coming.👍

Thanks Carl. We have a few more in the pipeline. Watch this space!

I recently got it in .177cal. I have to say, its a nice gun. Little heavy. But I am not the biggest lad tbh. Its powerful, I have shot about 400 pellets through it and its settled in nicely. My range is only 10yards, Its grouping the size of a 5p , pellet on pellet half of the time too. But that is with a Hawke AO mil dot scope instead the one that comes with it. It's a nice gun to get back into shooting with. It would definitely drop a rabbit easy

I had one of these about 6 or 7 years ago to be fair it was ok for the money I paid £129.99 no gun bag though they do feel solid and quiet good quality you shot it a lot better than I did 👍

Hi There Richard and anyone else reading this, I've just found the channel and read the last few reviews I really like the format and presentation style. I'm looking at getting back into the sport after a 20 year gap and wow how things have changed, probably not going to be returning to hunting though since losing in a a leg in an accident, so maybe field target/target is the way forward so probably time to find a club that takes old f@rts, anyhow Sorry for Waffling On, Keep Up the Good Work 👍👍

@airgunextra 2 года назад

Hi David, and I'm glad you found us. Thanks for the kind comments. Sorry to hear about your accident. There are plenty of great clubs dotted around. Where in the country are you?

Great review Richard , on various reviews I’ve seen of this gun , have ordered one the same as this , hopefully I will be lucky and get one as accurate as the one here tested , I will be doing a review when I get it , won’t be as in depth or as good as your review but interesting for the money ,, thank you Shaneweightman

@MudMaxMetalDetecting 2 года назад

Glad you enjoyed the Express Richard. Mine was the standard but I cut down the barrel and had a custom metal mod made. Bottle tops at 20yrds are just too easy with JSB Exacts. Cracking guns for the price mate. ATB MMMD

@airgunextra 2 года назад

Sounds like a sweet mod Max. I'm not surprised you like the rifle...

@ianwoods1384 2 года назад

Hi Richard, thankyou for a great review. These Remington air rifles look very similar to the HW80's, and not far off half the price. With great respect, I'd be very wary of buying one of these air rifles. When something is half the price, there's usually a good reason. I very much respect your view, and whatever you think, is good for me. You have vastly more experience than I do. Personally, although they look good, and they work for now, I'd pay more and go for something that's tested by generation's of people. Thankyou.

@Steve-Cross Год назад

Remington are one of the oldest gun manufacturers. It obviously doesn’t have the quality of a HW80, but it certainly has the pedigree. The whole idea of a budget rifle, is to make it more affordable for new shooters. It is certainly good enough at 20 yards, to hone your shooting skills. The scopes on my HW 97, are twice the price of this whole package. That sort of puts it in perspective and makes it very good value for money. 😊

@Steven-jn2cw Год назад

Which pellets did you find work best with it? I'm picking my one up on Friday, can't wait!

@christiannorris7673 Год назад

would anyone happen to know what is used for the clear coat on this rifle?

@Steve-Cross Год назад

Good budget rifle. I would be a little concerned about the plastic moderator on the end of a break barrel. Perhaps it could be changed for a metal one.

@davidholland5829 Год назад

Just bought one Remington xpress, quite happy with the performance 👌,Any tips on pellets please,

@airgunextra Год назад

Hi David. I always suggest starting with the popular premium brands - AA Diabolo Field, JSB Exact, H&N - I usually find one of those work pretty good. Pretty sure I used AADF in the review...Good luck.

Hi Richard, great review👍 I’m torn between this rifle and the Remington Tyrant. Which one would you recommend?

@airgunextra Год назад

Hi. Thanks very much. To be honest, I've not shot the Tyrant but the Express is a great rifle for the money. As long as you set your expectations accordingly, it is plenty accurate out to 20/25 metres and powerful too.

@PropaHouseMusic Год назад

Thanks, it’s perfect for what I need it for. 👍

@MrRockstar1968 2 года назад

Was hoping it would be quieter with that silencer on it.

@airgunextra 2 года назад

A silencer on a springer can't do anything about the mechanical noise of the spring, but the one on the Remington does a pretty good job. Possibly the recording equipment didn't do it any favours.

@ethanfranklin8733 2 года назад

Hello mate, could u do a review on the kral hi-cap with the fashion of tactical air guns at the moment ?

@airgunextra 2 года назад

Hi Ethan. We'll add it to the list.

@terrymccann2937 Год назад

I bought one of these in 177 UK, and the chrono was reading 15.4lbs! A friend later bought the same model, and his was reading 14.8 lbs! All my HW's come in between 11 and 11.10lbs. Be careful.

@airgunextra Год назад

If you and your friend bought your rifles from a gun shop it has a responsibility to ensure they are within the legal limit. If you haven't already I suggest taking the rifles straight back.

@injairgun 7 месяцев назад

The first thing I would do with that gun long before ever shooting it would be to remove the finish from that stock, then walnut stain and seal with tru-oil! It looks like a thick brown paint reminiscent of Chinese made rifles!

@gr8est_ever838 6 месяцев назад

Hi i purchased this gun last week and i dryfired like 5 times before i read the manual.Did i caused any damage?

@airgunextra 6 месяцев назад

Hmmn. Dry firing a springer is not recommended. The only way to tell if you have damaged anything is to see what it shoots like. If its accurate and the power is good (you'd need a chronograph to be absolutely sure) then I'd say you've got away with it. Fingers crossed...

Looking at the 22 calibre for both

@johnb978 2 месяца назад

Has a “silencer”? Seems pretty loud to me

@airgunextra Месяц назад

Unfortunately a silencer won't do anything about mechanical noise. Having a few microphones close to the rifle doesn't help either!

@mattriley6283 2 года назад

Hello Richard, I was wondering how accurate this rifle is at 40 yards or more I'm looking at buying one very soon i currently have a Gamo Varmint Barricade and I'm looking for something with more weight and precision for target shooting and long shots, Do you think if shot right it would be able to do 1" groupings or less at 40 yards??

@airgunextra 2 года назад

Hi Matt. I guess in theory the right answer is 'depends on how good a shot you are'. In reality, I think that one inch or less at 40 yards is a stretch for this rifle, good as it is. I wouldn't fancy my chances anyway...

@MrRockstar1968 2 года назад

Are you saying Pellpax will actually deliver a rifle to your door?

@airgunextra 2 года назад

Yes, that's correct. You'll need to provide proof of identity when they deliver.

Great video. I’ve been given a Remington express .22 rifle. It has a scope the the foresight was taken off and mislaid. Is there anywhere in the uk that I could source either the foresight or the suppressor on the gun in this video?

@airgunextra Год назад

Thanks very much. I think your first port of call should be your local gun shop. Failing that, try one of the big retailers - Sportsman Gun Centre would be my recommendation. Good luck!

@barkershill 2 года назад

I have heard that leaving a springer cocked for any length of time will damage the spring. But could someone please quantify this ? How long CAN you leave it cocked before damage results ? Does this mean that if you are hunting and have to sit waiting a long while for a shot with the rifle cocked you are damaging it ? And does the spring loose power during this period ? A clear reply from a knowledgable person would be hugely appreciated

@airgunextra 2 года назад

Hi. It seems like leaving a springer cocked for anything longer than you need to would be a bad thing. The reality is quite different and you can leave a spring rifled cocked for hours with no detrimental effect. I wouldn't advocate leaving a springer, or any rifle for that matter, cocked and loaded when it doesn't need to be and if you don't anticipate an imminent shot, but for hunting purposes, cocking and loading a spring powered rifle to walk around with is 100% fine and won't damage the spring or reduce power output. I don't hunt with springers that often now, but back in the day I'd happily leaving my HW80 cocked for hours and hours. Its as powerful today as it was nearly 50 years ago. I hope that helps. Rich
