I know this is an old video, but for anyone coming across this in the future... The last three shots, where the Airacuda Standard was coming off the bell curve, were extremely accurate. This is most likely because the gun was on Max transfer port setting, which chrony data from owners shows pushes the 18.13 grain JSB above the ideal 840-880 fps for diabolo pellets. Once it dropped into that sweet spot after the bell curve, it was grouping super tight. Great video Rick!
The JTS Airacuda is made by Xisco to specifications demanded by the U.S. market. According to JTS, improvements were made to the rifle after receiving feedback from knowledgable reviewers. It would not surprise me if the rifles released to retailers are more accurate than the model tested in this video.
Hey Rick. Just wanted to say I been really loving these range time type formats and getting to see you just enjoying the guns and doing what you like. Reminds of watching you back in those old "hobby" days, shooting in the back yard and just sort of speaking from the hip, as far what you like and what you don't about the gun.
Nice fun review Rick. I watched Angie’s review also. I have a Max on order, regulated version. I’m getting the .22 caliber. More pellets per tin, and more choices in slugs, and most of the R&D on slugs has been spent on the .22 caliber. Thanks Rick.
That's incredible. I think when not rushed, that standard gun will make clover leaf's all day long! The Max was vertically challenged, chroni numbers would have been useful to compare. Nice guns, nice review!
Great content! You and Angie do a great job...just facts, no fluff! I'm new to the PCP arena but not new to firearms. As a PCP newbie, what would you recommend...the JTS, Barra or AV? I'm truly interested in your opinion of the "best bang for the buck" PCP rifle that will perform admirably in the field. Thanks!!!
Hey there Mike. Thank you for the kind worlds. Having shot all 3, my choice would be the JTS Airacuda Max. I like the way it’s put together and the ease of maintenance for down the road. The other two are also very good with the Avenger having the slight nod because it’s regulated. Hope that helps. Cheers AGW
Nice shooting , for the money how can you beat these rifles👍 I have to wonder if the .25cal. pellets have some variation? I've noticed the .25s lately that I've received in certain brands have had skirts a little out of shape. Thanks for the video👍
I don't understand comments like these. For a gun the same price try a Rotex RM8 in 177 with Air Arms field and get single-hole groups all day long at 35 yards
@@terminadorairgunsandoutdoors - what exactly are you looking for here? As I've mentioned time and time again.. I want to know what a gun is going to do right from the factory.. from there I'll sort out the next steps.

Not as good as a Rotex RM8 at the same price and Yes I have one had it 2 months and have not fired a shot through it yet R M 8 just seems to come out first but wow it's accurate
Hey Rick thanks for this video. I love this series, just a quick overview and let’s get shooting! P.S: that loud @ss ping during the shot cycle is very Marauder like. In fact this gun looks to me like what Marauders were 10 years ago!
It's shooting all over the place tho?...if my gamo magnum igt mach1 shoots like that i know... oops it ate another $60.00 scope..lol😂..i expect both of these to out perform a break barrel that's for sure..pcp rifle s with a hawke scope cant out perform a gamo magnum with a hammers scope?.. disappointing..
This guy has lost his professional touch, now in rookie-mode. Forgetting to load the magazine is unacceptable. Next, using pellets out of a tin without inspecting the pellets is unacceptable. Also, he talks too much, or I should say spewing out a bunch of useless words, as if he never did a review before, or stretching out a video for no reason.
Jon - this is not a review.. I've said it over and over.. This video and others like it are just me having fun with the airguns and talking about my initial impressions. When we do a review, you'll see "AIRGUN REVIEW" in the title and it will have all the typical "review" data. Cheers AGW

I'll still be doing some full reviews, probably 2 or 3 a month, but the GTA is a great place for the tweaking and tuning crowd. It's what they do and what many of our members are really into.

@@traviswhitney7870 I highly doubt that. Just another China gun. In fact these look awfully DAR ish. Avenger is a damn solid gun and shoots about anything moa out to 50, maybe further. I have 2 that have been trouble free for a year.
@@cletiswilson6222 warranty smarranty. These guns are super easy to work on. 90% of the time it will be nothing more than an o ring. Don’t let warranties dictate what you buy.
@@Light_357 Avenger requires constant O ring changes on bolt/prope and still looses air at this seal point. There are aftermarket fixes. Air Venturi still hasn't addressed this very well known issue. I'm tired of changing these two O rings out. The Airacuda eliminates this issue because bolt/probe is machined correctly and doesn't require O rings. Avenger wood stock with similar styling to the Airacuda Standard is $435.00. Airacuda Standard is $320.00 and the checkered aspect of the Airacuda stock is much nicer more traditional looking. Hands down Airacuda Standard $100.00 less for a better gun.

So the standard is only $320? And production models will have the depinger? And a really nice wood stock? Hot diggity this is worth my money 👍

Those JSBs are not consistent that's why some fit tight some lose .
