AEA Challenger

This AEA Challenger PCP bolt action rifle offers excellent value for money and it features a beautifully finished wood stock. That stock has a nicely curved cheek rest and a comfortably shaped grip. The butt plate is made of black rubber with mild texturing for a little extra grip. There’s even some texturing along both sides of the fore-end for some extra grip and the AEA Challenger feels great to hold in your hands. That grip and decent design allow you to shoot it accurately.

That’s why this PCP rifle -which has a barrel length of 610 mm- doesn’t have sights of its own. Instead, it has an 11 mm Dovetail scope rail, which can be used to mount a rifle scope that suits its accurate range. The AEA Challenger PCP rifle has a total length of 1143 mm and a decent weight of 3130 grams. There’s a removable 300 cc PCP cylinder located beneath the carbon fibre barrel shroud. It has a maximum fill pressure of 250 bar/3600 PSI.

The AEA Challenger bolt action rifle has a side lever on the right side of the action, which has a smooth pull. This means you’ll easily push one pellet after the other into the barrel, without having to take your eyes off the target. The safety is located right in front of the trigger and you can easily operate it with your trigger finger. So, the safety, too, allows you to keep your eyes on the target.
