Snowpeak ap900 looks nice for the money

[Woodyrapid7]

Hi guys, just had an email from Pellpax with some new upcoming air rifles, I think the snowpeak ap900 looks very good for the price. Probably be a great light little starter rifle.

Interesting and looks very much like a rifle version of the PP750 .

 

[valevelo]

The bottle version has definitely borrowed some styling from the RAW Micro Hunter but with a different stock.
l like it though, could be an ideal little pest gun and alternative to a Katran SC

 

[OldStock]

Looks like features from the Airmaks range

 

[Paynut]

Looks ok, I would be dubious from that pic for alignment issues from the off

 

[Sweep]

If Temu sold a Katran!

To be honest, I quite like the look of it... I'd be tempted to buy one in .25 to use as a ratter. Maybe after Christmas.

Good spot. Bottle version for me I think

Think I'll end up swapping my Katran for this

I hope that is just bad background removal, rather than "downward facing bottle" mode.

The bottle version looks worse, bit of a lash up to accommodate mod methinks

The image looks poor, but that seems more the photograph and edit, rather than the gun.
Clean up the bottle and draw some lines, and it does not seem (quite) so bent.

My OCD kicked in on such things

That looks really good.

Doesn’t look good does it! Still, l guess it is only £400 .

I reserve judgment until we see one in the flesh.

 

[Flashheart]

Pretty decent spec for the price.

One in all three calibres and the bill would be about the same as a Katran.

…Or another way to look at is it’s half the price of a 160 BAR Precihole!

Same here but for 360 quid, it looks like it's worth a punt. It's a third of the price of a Katran!

 

[Jay Butts]

I think it looks great, less than 2kg too. I’d have one.

I’ve paid more for a bipod!

EDIT: .25 for ratting and bugs! Could be spot on…

@Pellpax still need to read their adverts before sending them out

Performance is impressive across available calibers. The AP900 is offered in 4.5 mm, 5.5 mm and 6.35 mm with typical muzzle velocities of approximately 930 fps (4.5 mm), 850 fps (5.5 mm) and 750 fps (6.35 mm). In 4.5 mm configuration the rifle routinely exceeds 900 fps and delivers around 24 joules of energy, making it a powerful choice for target work and field use alike.

Ahhh Americum spelling to go with US power levels?

Any idea what the shot count would be on the bottle version
