It certainly gives a sophisticated, quality feel to the cocking action pellet loading in the new Brocock XR series air rifles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tactical-style sidelever operating handle is \u201cgrippy\u201d and easy to use. It\u2019s also attractive and sits in an ergonomically-convenient position relative to the trigger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"520\" src=\"https:\/\/www.airgunsofarizona.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/HAM-8.jpg\" alt=\"New Brocock XR Series Launched Today\" class=\"wp-image-5301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.airgunsofarizona.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/HAM-8.jpg 780w, https:\/\/www.airgunsofarizona.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/HAM-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.airgunsofarizona.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/HAM-8-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the new sidelever action is not the only improvement incorporated in the new XR series. Brocock says that there\u2019s a number of technical improvements, including a revised hammer and valve assembly which increase power output and the number of consistent shots per fill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the firing system has been refined with ultra-fine tolerances. There\u2019s an improved trigger set-up from the factory, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brocock says that the barrel now has an even higher level of finish to the bore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"520\" src=\"https:\/\/www.airgunsofarizona.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/HAM-9-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.airgunsofarizona.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/HAM-9-1.jpg 780w, https:\/\/www.airgunsofarizona.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/HAM-9-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.airgunsofarizona.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/HAM-9-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Brocock XR series air rifles, save for the base XR model, include a HUMA regulator system.
