The Brocock Safari XR retains the Sniper XRs classic good looks, but the new Safari model elevates things a stage further courtesy of a textured ambidextrous stock. This texturing was first used on its sister companies Daystate Red Wolf Safari, and the Brocock Safari XR includes a full suite of Picatinny mounting rails.
In common with the rest of the sidelever-operated XR range, the new Brocock Safari XR is based around Brococks innovative semi-bullpup design that vastly improves gun handling and pointability. The new Safari maintains the XRs highly-advanced regulator system, developed in partnership with world-renowned specialists, Huma-Air.
Combining this reg with the XRs latest hammer design, air release is precisely metered to totally eradicate any power curve and ensure minimal shot-to-shot deviation as the rifle cycles through its usable air charge both important factors in improving downrange accuracy. The Huma-Air regulator also returns an even higher number of shots per fill-up a big bonus for those who opt for the Safari XR in high-power format (up to 55ft/lbs).
The Safari also sports Brococks all new, removable self-indexing magazine available in 11 shot rotary magazine in .22/ 13 shot rotary magazine in .177 with flip-open loading gate and retains all the XR lines highly versatile features: the adjustable stock, on-the-fly power adjuster and match-feel, adjustable two-stage trigger.
