Things I liked:First of all, I am by no means an x-pert shooter! I shoot my piece off a sand rest at 20-30 yds., for now. Consequently, I am still experimenting with dif. pellets. I also have a Beeman R-9 (.20) to compare 2. So much for those "junk" pellets that I read in reviews. NO, I have not tried them all. There is a marriage between gun

I also have a Beeman R-9 (.20) to compare 2. So much for those "junk" pellets that I read in reviews. NO, I have not tried them all. There is a marriage between gun and projectile, much the same as people! What appears as junk in reviews may certainly perform adequately in your gun.
My RX-2 was nice and stylish out of the box, had nice mass (for me at least), and beconned to be shot. and this I do. Although I have only a couple thous. rounds through it, accuracy seems decent and predictable.
Accuracy in my terms is hitting what you're trying to hit.
Groups at 20 yds. are about the size of my little finger nail, stacked.; this is for a 10 shot something or other,using Benjamins, Exact, Predators, and "Crows".
They all seem to shoot consistantly! My R-9 shoots best accuracy using Predators exclusively; some other brands are a close second, but for both long and short range shooting, they work the best. As I expand my shooting range with the RX, I will certainly update my review . And, as in marriage, I continue to be flexible with my experimentations_knowing when accuarcy has been achieved.
Speed: 794 fps. w/ exact .22 ammo. Things I would have changed:For now, not a whole lot, as we are just getting to know one another. What others should know:I will still prefer the R-9 for hitting the woods...weight mainly. On the other hand, I shall remain optimistic that the RX will totally divorce that elusive wood
chuck_just around the corner.
Things I liked:Nice quantity in a big open box. Things I would have changed:The sizing is terrible! Some pellets fell 6 inches into the barrel when loading: in 100 rounds there must have been about a dozen that just didn't fit. A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT, esp. for the price. Maybe my new RX-2 is junk, but, I doubt it. Also, for all the

Maybe my new RX-2 is junk, but, I doubt it. Also, for all the promo, they really didn't perform that well. It would be nice to be able to buy in smaller quantities_just to see if they will work at all. What others should know:Exact, meisters, and predators all work extremely well in my gun...dime size groups at 20 yds. easily.
