Hot on the heels of the new Brocock Atomic pistol<\/a> is another new, compact Brocock model. The British manufacturer is clearly on a roll right now!
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ranger XR<\/a> is firmly positioned as a pest controller\u2019s ideal air rifle.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brocock describes the new sidelever, foldable Ranger as perfectly suited for mobile hunters. Also those shooting in confined environments like hides and vehicles.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brocock rifles have been a firm favorite with professional pest controllers for years. These include Jerry Moss who – for the last 18 years – has spearheaded efforts to preserve native red squirrels in the Whinfell area of Cumbria in the UK by reducing the invasive grey squirrel population.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jerry\u2019s input was instrumental to the concept and design of the Ranger XR.
\u201cFull length and carbine rifles are ideal in many situations, but if you like to stay mobile and need to cover large areas on foot, especially over rough ground, a small, light rifle makes life a lot easier,\u201d says Jerry.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI also spend a lot of time staking out feeders and shooting from a hide or even a vehicle. With its 10-inch barrel, the Ranger XR is much easier to handle. And when it comes to taking care of business, I know I can rely on its accuracy and power to do what\u2019s necessary quickly and humanely every time.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ranger XR measures just 23.6 Inches long with the folding stock deployed and only 15.75 Inches with it retracted.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Despite its compact size and 10.1 inch barrel, Brocock says the Ranger XR is as accurate as full length and carbine rifles. This is due, in part, to the improved hammer design and Huma-Air regulator that was developed for the recently launched Safari XR.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As a result, air release is more precisely metered to eradicate the power curve and minimize shot-to-shot deviation, Brocock explains.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result is a light weight airgun of of 5.5 Lbs that can deliver around 30 shots at a Muzzle Energy of 20 Ft\/Lbs. In .177 caliber, the spec is for 35 shots at 16 Ft\/Lbs.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Brocock Ranger XR sidelever carbine<\/a> is also designed to work with the company\u2019s new self-indexing magazine. This increases shot capacity to 13 shots in .177 and 11 in .22 caliber while offering improved pellet\/bore alignment.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To accommodate those who use large parallax adjustment wheel accessory on their scope, the magazines insert into the breach from the right. This will be a welcome improvement for many shooters who prefer the precision focusing that a sidewheel can offer.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many traditional Brocock features are incorporated into the Ranger XR. These include the side power control and the manual \u201cpaddle\u201d safety inside the trigger guard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
