Only had it 30 minutes....tell you right now I hope to buy more. What a gorgeous rifle. Concept Walnut in .22 by the way. So the best I can do right now is put up some pictures...I will read the manual before playing with it (I know I know...turn in the man card).

Sorry for the crap pic's...natural light fading fast and that always sucks for photographs.

Beauty!
Let me know how the mags work for you. I had a Contour that was gorgeous, too, but I had an ongoing problem with the mags not holding the pellets properly, leading to constant jams.

I think the Concept is single shot. Mine is - also in .22.

It loves JSB RN's, H&N's in 19.01gr. and Predator pellets as well.

I just wish it had a gauge, is all.

I fill it every 35-40 shots, and it shoots pretty good right from a 3,000psi fill, getting better after the first 5 shots but usable right from the get-go on field rats, accuracy wise, to 50 yards, anyway.

I assumed you go the 20fpe model.

BTW - I put a 3-12X44 Compact with glass etched reticle- mil dots and 1/2 mil dot slashes. NICE! I also have one on my HW97. Love this scope.

That's a real shame and sorry to hear it.

I have the lower end single shot model that I don't even see on the website anymore.

I wish it had a gauge as well, but I think my model is pretty entry level, except for the furniture.

No argument on the bug buster or similar from Leapers. Have more than one and great idea for this carbine sized, lightweight rifle.

I haven't even unboxed the silly hand pump yet. I'm sure it won't be long til a helper compressor finds a new home here.

When the weather gets nicer my bud will bring his chrony over and we'll go shooting. Let you know then what it does w with those JSB's.

Just a guess- maybe only one left - a HP .22 Beech stocked version.

BTW - this 30mm scope comes with rings & fits Picatinny or Weaver bases.

Here's mine - Concept SS in Hp .22, with scope attached.

I have been advised that DayState bought Brocock.

They must have been impressed with the Brocock models and quality.

@RandyC: I know, I'm really slumming with the single shot....and I do apologize, but when I croak I've got two caskets arranged because I AM taking some with me...including this one :)

@Daryl: Of course that looks absolutely perfect on there. I'll email Kelley in the morning.

I've not even had time to unbox my pump yet. Killing me not to try it out. :)

I'm to the other extreme- mounting a Vortex Diamondback on a Crosman 13-XX. 8)

No comparison at all between the utg and the vortex.
