Great shooting Nate. Thanks for letting your viewer know these PCP air rfile need to be tuned for the correct ammo weight your shooting. You da man!!!

[@AirgunChannel]

Thank man! I need to make a tuning video for this gun next. Thanks for tuning in! -Nate

[@brorjordas1979]

Great shooting! 👍🏻 The Gauntlet is a very sweet airgun for sure.

[@AirgunChannel]

Thank you! SL30 tuning video on the way. It gets better! -Nate

[@thomasjarrow391]

Highly entertaining...I laugh and laugh every time I come across one of your vids. Props are so fun...information is spot on. Delivery is priceless! Great job!

[@AirgunChannel]

Thanks man! -Nate

[@beanaddict]

Excellent reveiw Nate,such a hard hitting rifle,always like the target range.

[@AirgunChannel]

Thanks! More G2 on the way!

[@erikroelinkcitizen2302]

Wow that accuracy is incredible 😅😊 great video

[@AirgunChannel]

Thank you. It gets alot better if you tune it. (Coming soon)

[@tommanning7337]

Always look forward to your videos man!! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

[@AirgunChannel]

Thanks for tuning in each week. Got another one dropping tomarrow at 6:00 AM Hollywood time! See you then! -Nate

[@TADD29]

Talk bout hard hitting!! Great review. This ones on my list.

[@AirgunChannel]

Can;t go wrong with a .30 G2. Tuning video on the way. Thanks for watching! -Nate

[@shadowmihaiu]

Love this. I love my Gauntlet .25 cal. I have heard some complaints about the bolt action but I really like it. But the Gauntlets just keep getting better and higher value. So I may now have to get and SL .30.

[@AirgunChannel]

Yeah, or SL any caliber

[@phillipanhorn5354]

Absolutely rifle!! I am currently sucking up every video I can find about the Gauntlet 2 30SL. I f you can find the distance, try slugs. Shooter 1721 was using Griffin 78grn slugs,out to 200 yards. Enjoyed your video. I am getting the 30, but also need a compressor. No way I'm hand pumping this bad boy. Thanks 👍

[@AirgunChannel]

Its a bad ass 30 cal

[@louismartini6983]

Outstanding Review Video. I'm convinced.

[@AirgunChannel]

Mission complete!

[@stevengoodman3498]

Great demo of this killer rifle brother. Excellent shooting as usual. They are sold out till June now. Congrats Nate you sold them all! Lol😂

[@AirgunChannel]

Mission complete!

[@YDCFF_]

Thanks for another great review bro... I've been tossing around buying one of these for quite some time now. I think I'll get a Blitz first and then this one. I don't have a full auto yet and it looks like lots of fun...

[@AirgunChannel]

Blitz is fun! Don't get a .30 though, it's too expensive for ammo

[@YDCFF_]

@@AirgunChannel Speaking of ammo, have you tried Nielsen slugs yet? Wow just Wow. I always used H&N. Bro these are perfectly cast and balanced. He explains on his website how his old mold cast slugs were never perfectly balanced. As in perfect weight distribution. So he talked to his wife about getting this super expensive press and did. Now all of the slugs are perfect. I just ordered another batch. I'm sure he would send you some to review if you haven't already.

[@hankh1382]

The blitz is a blast in any caliber.....I have heard of less issues with the 30.cal

[@YDCFF_]

@@hankh1382 thanks for the feedback. I'm getting the . 30.

[@rellmonger7935]

Nice, this brand was my 1st. I love it

[@AirgunChannel]

solid guns for sure

[@bigearl8687]

I'm agreeing with you about those AEA pellets and I haven't even shot them through any of my guns.... I'm about order some now....I haven't seen a FLYER yet from them on video

[@AirgunChannel]

Yeah, they are great. ...turns out JSB makes them for AEA. WTF???

[@stevengoodman3498]

I've been shooting the AEA pellets for a month or so. Deadly accurate in all my 25 caliber and 30 cal PCP air rifles. Love em!😊

[@bigearl8687]

@@AirgunChannel 😆 wow ..

[@michaelpurdy5908]

I have some guns way more expensive than this one and I shoot this one the most! Great for coyotes and smaller can probably take a hog but I don’t have them in pa. I got mine close to 120fpe either the hammer spring adjusted and the right slugs. So much fun.

[@AirgunChannel]

30 cal is the best!

[@experienceprecision5406]

Amazing shooter. Heavy sucker but has to be a joy bench shooting not so much hunting on foot.

[@scinner28]

AEA pellets..😂😂😂😂 in a positive way ..and i stil cant buy them in the netherlands.why why 😀nice clip man as always .👍 does it like slug's?

[@AirgunChannel]

Shooter1721 just shot FX hybrids slugs at 200 yards on Facebook with the .30 SL

[@calisav223]

Bro sounds like they're breaking the sound barrier 😮

[@AirgunChannel]

They are. I'm about to tuen that bad buy in another video

[@so.callife]

Interested in your thoughts on this vs the airacuda .30 max since you have had a chance to shoot both...im gonna be buying one of these...nice humor in your reviews and very informative with lil bs...thank you in advance

[@AirgunChannel]

I think this is better. More shots I think.

[@j.verfaillie5742]

Hopefully the mystery will one day be solved as to whether AEA pellets are made by JTS or JSB.

[@VirtualPinballMachines]

It's JSB. Says on the AEA website

[@AirgunChannel]

from JSB factory to AEA wharehouse according to AEA website

[@j.verfaillie5742]

@@AirgunChannel The employees must be damned loyal or have had to sign a ruinous contract in advance to keep their lips tight.

[@G.I.Joe-]

At the beginning of the vid I saw a Donny Fatboy on it, then not. Did you remove it because of accuracy issues?

[@AirgunChannel]

No. I just had not added it yet when I filmed the first part. All the groups were shot with the Donny. The accuracy was because it was not tuned to 890 fps.

[@DBS5377]

I have the G2-30 bolt and it will shoot hole on hole with the JSB exact, my only gripes are the gun is long and heavy for hunting.

[@AirgunChannel]

I think this one will do that too once it's tuned. Yeah, it's not the lightest gun out there.

[@tomeickhorst6787]

I’d love to get started in pcp. But it’s so hard to commit when between a gun and a compressor it’s a grand or more. That much I can get 2-4 regular rifles or pistols

[@AirgunChannel]

Get a hand pump friendly gun like the fortitude or nemesis X and the pump is just $40...or a $300 Yonh Heng or protable 12v compressor. ...just spend $2000 and go all in!

[@slingshotwarrrior8105]

Direct hits, bro!

Yeah, don't get in front of a .30 cal!

I'm looking for a big bore also and in my research MANY people complain that JTS has terrible customer service..if you have a problem and contact them it's impossible.. nobody calls you back..they won't help with anything.. just that is a deal breaker for me..I own a.22 Marauder and have had it apart many times.. I've needed many parts.. never a problem whatsoever..good support is extremely important and umarex has great support..I had a spring magnum 350 and had a problem with the trigger I contacted them and bought a new one..they sent it right out..I later had a problem with the spring and that time when I called them they pulled up my information that was on file already and just sent me a new spring no charge.. umarex is great to deal with.

Why don't they just make it in a bull pup. 4 feet long is ridiculous
