The BSA Lightning XL is based on what
is probably the most popular British made spring rifle of recent
times. The action is silimar to the tried and tested favorite
that has graced the hunting field since it's introduction in the
late 90's, but the similarity ends there.
Internally the XL has utilized new technologies with a synthetic
spring guide, improved dampener sleeve and upgraded mainspring
which results in a higher overall performance. The XL Tactical's
stock is computer-designed to provide everything sporting shooters
need, and nothing they don't. The specifically-developed, hi-impact
polymer compound used to form the stock is always warm to the
touch, provides secure grip and remains warp-free in all climate
conditions. The barrel has been shrouded in a full length, permanently
attached bull barrel moderator which tapers purposely towards
the breech, and helps give the XL that famous stability "on
aim" for which BSA rifles are rightly famed. But perhaps
the biggest change is the trigger which has been completely re-engineered
to offer the shooter control which is truly breathtaking. A two
stage precision unit which is adjustable for the individual shooters
preferred weight of pull, this trigger is a masterpiece which
must be experienced to be fully appreciated. The ultra-practical
Tactical - a sporter for all seasons!
