Gamo Outdoor USA and BSA Guns Ltd. of England have announced that they will release a new model line-up this year, highlighted by a number of products that are designed exclusively for the U.S. market.

BSA's flagship PCP air rifle, the R-10 Mk2, is a significant improvement over the company's original model, which was launched in 2009. The rifle features more than 30 major engineering changes. The R-10 Mk2 is also one of the few PCP’s on the market that allows the user to fill up with air into the bottle or directly into the gun itself.

BSA is also launching a brand new variation of its Scorpion SE Air Rifle, known a the Scorpion 1200 SE. The rifle was developed specifically for the United States' market, and is capable of 1200 fps in .177 and 1000 fps in .22. It features a 10 shot magazine, on-board pressure gauge and BSA’s Bolas Bolt Action.

Another new addition is the compact 'Carbine' Ultra SE, designed to be an ideal 'starter rifle.' It's widely used across Europe as a close-range pest control tool.

Gamo will be unveiling the BSA PCP air rifle line-up to the on associated social media outlets, and through Pyramyd Air.

Behind the Bullet: The .22 Long

If we could rewind the clock to 1871, before the .45-70 Government and .45 Colt existed, and when cartridges themselves were just establishing a foothold in the shooting world, you’d find a pair of .22-caliber rimfire designs: the .22 Short and the .22 Long. Aptly named, these cartridges would survive well into the 20th century, ultimately being conquered by the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. But in certain situations, the .22 Long cartridge still makes good sense, and actually has a few specialized applications.
