BRK Brocock Ranger XR2 Tactical review: the ultimate all-rounder?

Welcome to the debut of ‘First Shots’: our new series of punchy first impressions. Today, we are heading out with the brand-new BRK Brocock Ranger XR2 Tactical.

With prices for the XR2 rifles starting at around £950 and reaching £1,350 for this Tactical version, the big question is whether it is worth the extra investment for use on the range and in the field.

Today, I am reviewing the .177 version to see if it lives up to the hype. That side-lever action is absolute bliss, and it definitely stands out as a highlight of the rifle. We also look at the Huma-regulated consistency and how it handles at 35 yards. From the 13-position power adjuster to the adjustable buttstock, we cover the hits and the minor misses in just under 4 minutes.

Key specs in this video:
- Calibre: .177 (Tested)
- Power: 11.8 ft/lbs (10.34gr JSB Diabolo)
- Shot Count: Approx. 130 shots per 250-bar fill
- Trigger: 2-stage (2lb 4oz break)
- Regulator: Huma-Air
