Umarex UX Trap-Shot Airgun Target

Product Information

The Emerge is covered by the company’s standard “return to base” three-year warranty coverage and is widely available in stores due to Umarex USA’s excellent distribution coverage. These items normally require Identification (Passport) or a firearms / Shotgun certificate before they are handed over. Shotguns, Rifles, Airguns and Moderators are usually good examples. When purchasing an “Only available in store” item you are in effect paying a deposit for your goods. In most instances you can choose to collect your item from our store or if It's a firearm you can collect it from a 3rd party gun dealer. The latter may be at an additional cost to yourself. The Emerge is supplied with a bundled 4×32 scope with high Picatinny rings. Although these high rings allow you to use the iron sights with the scope installed, the HAM Team strongly advises you NEVER actually do this!

I got to spend a lot of quality time with this rifle over the past four weeks. It’s been out on my bench in the garden range at least half a dozen times, and I’ve also taken it with me on a couple of rabbit hunts at two different perms. This is just the sort of upgrade HAM recommends for any Emerge owner wanting to improve the practical accuracy and durability of his or her air rifle. This rifle features an adjustable two-stage trigger, which took a bit of getting used to. The factory setting as it comes straight out of the box is quite spongey and it almost feels like a single-stage trigger, but with a little adjustment I managed to set it just how I like it, with around 2.5lb of pull weight. Other benefits are that the magazine itself is very easy to load, so long as you have a flat table (or similar) to do so. Plus, the face plate is provided with useful apertures that allow the number of pellets remaining to be seen. The actual alignment of the gun and sight at the instant a shot is released. Ideally, it should coincide with the shooter’s point of aim.HAM Tester Eric Brewer considered this accuracy to be respectable for a breakbarrel air rifle of this price. Really, it was only that one shot at 7:30 breaking the outer ring that spoiled a reasonable group. However Eric did not call that as a “flier”. As predicted, the rifle performed very well out in the field, taking three rabbits during one evening session. There were no misses, and all three kills were clean and instant. More than enough proof that the 850 M2 is up to the job. Maybe this was a simple case of operator error. Maybe it was part of the learning curve associated with the magazine loading system? We don’t know. However it’s definitely something for the new Emerge owner to watch out for.

I’m impressed, very impressed with this kit. Yes, there are PCP rifles out there for similar money, but for CO2 lovers this Umarex 850 M2 is a massive step up in terms of quality, accuracy and performance. Not only that, it’s really easy to shoot and extremely good fun, to boot. It’s the ideal gift for our younger shooters and for those just getting into the sport, as well as seasoned shooters who fancy a play with something a little different to the norm. When you open that box and see all the goodies inside, it’s like opening a birthday present – there’s just so much to go at. Umarex offers a diverse range of airguns, catering to different shooting preferences and applications. Whether it's plinking, target shooting, or competitive shooting, Umarex has a model to suit every need. Some popular Umarex Airgun lines include: In addition, the HAM Team did find a couple of issues associated with using the magazine in the test gun. Many of their air guns are exact versions of vintage and classic weapons so you can own a piece of history. And with a realistic replica of modern weapons, you can practice target shooting and tactical training without breaking the budget on firearm ammo or expensive gun ranges. In fact, many law enforcement agencies use Umarex brand air guns for training purposes. The Umarex Emerge is a long air rifle. It’s 47-Inches overall length. At a shooting weight of 8 Lbs 11Oz – with the 4 x 32 scope – it’s reasonably heavy but not unmanageable.

This means that it offers strong value from a price/features perspective. However, we also need to consider the other attributes that it offers, like power, consistency and accuracy. We’ll do that in this test review. A second issue noticed on test was that the gun failed to fire the first pellet from the magazine on two separate occasions. We were not able to isolate the cause of this issue. Nor to repeat it thereafter. The 3-9 magnification zoom ring is particularly smooth, which makes it very easy to dial in and out.

There are yet more goodies inside the box in the form of an Umarex K3 Neo silencer, which screws down on the 1/2”-20 UNF muzzle thread beautifully. It really does make a difference to the sound output from this rifle, and I’m glad that Umarex has included it in the kit – if you’re going to take this rifle out on the rabbits, the silencer will definitely give you an edge.The motion, vertical and horizontal, of a projectile. Trajectories resemble parabolas and depend on six factors: projectile velocity, air resistance, barrel angle, gravity, drag coefficient and twist. Umarex Hammer series: High-powered, big bore air rifles designed for hunting and long-range shooting. The Predator GTO and H&N Field Target Trophy Green alloys gave good groups, as did the 8.64 Grain, lead, Field Target Trophy pellets. Best accuracy was achieved using the heavy Baracuda Match pellets and so these were chosen for the 25 Yard test. The science of projectiles in free flight. It is concerned with a projectile’s motion when fired, when exiting the muzzle, when outside the barrel, when moving towards a target and at the end of its trajectory.
