The Haley’s: Sounds like the newer versions are better than the older versions. Only own the older stuff and not the newer ones. But here they are good.
XP seems like they are great and do everything they advertise and then some. My buddy owned one and shot hardcast 220 gr Government Profile BALL outta his at low power and a 3000 psi fill. He said that 3 shot – 3/4″ groups at 100 can be done all day long off of 1 fill.
Gary Barnes guns are next on my list as he simply posses a ton of skill. Never shot one personally but, i do frequent his forum on a regular and he is very active in posting post on his current guns and his work.
Sounds like a title to a German Porn Film 😛
I Like my 308xp and my 457 jack haley.
Ya I think the daqs are nice, but a waaait. After you get on the list.
Only one I can speak for is Haley, but its a older model, and the new ones look nice. Ive been talking to Jack and he seems like I nice guy, I cant speak for the others. This gun is getting upgraded though, first its off to Haley, then to WIll piatt.
They all have their place…. my experience with big bores I’ve owned or own currently…
Haley… some roughness around the edges, but works well and is as advertised to me from Jack. This is one of Jacks early guns so I cant speak for his newer ones and the ‘rough around the edges’ part may not apply. Have an early Haley .32
DAQ… I have a 50 cal and a 308… airgun tools. No frills… functional in every aspect of the word. Support is excellent from Dennis.
Sam Yang 909s… 45 cal… extremely accurate… moddable… nice gun, but sold mine as I have the 50
Career Ultra 9mm…. love this gun… hate how it looks. Not a fan of the looks, but this thing shoots.
I also have a couple 32 and 36 cal customs that I’ve made and some in the works, but these are low powered Crosman conversions. Not worthy of mention.
I’ve shot a Barnes. Airgun art for sure…. accurate…
Shot a Bontranger and own a Bontranger smallbore…. very accurate.. well made… shame that he isnt doing any more.
Corsair… no experience, never laid hands on one.
Same for the XP and others..
seems like I’m missing one though….

I was shooting my XPAirguns Ranger 45 today at 100 yards.
420 grain bullets, 3 shots into 1.25 and 1.5 inches and two shots group into one hole, at 650 FPE.
And yes, Tof is right, they are everything they are advertised to be.
