Good Points

Light and short. Great for hunting. Adjustable butt plate. Lots of room to house all types of scopes


Bad Points

With the falcon suppressor/refill nosil, it isn't very quiet. Would not reccomend for range shooting.


General Comments

Because the Falcon FN12 is quite small and light, it does not have the greatest accuracy. Infact, it is actualy less accurate than my AirArms S200 which was £300 less. But it still gets quite good accuracy. I get about the spread of a 2p coin at 40yards where i got a 5p coin spread with my S200. But to be honest, i think i got lucky and got a slightly better built s200 than average.

As for the shot capacity, i get about 50-60 when filling it to the 95 psi that the manual recommends. But to be honest, i often fill it to 120 psi, because i can't be bothered to fill it all the time.
Now, 50-60 is more than enough when you are hunting. Honestly, when i am hunting, i struggle to empty the mag during the whole trip.
But the problem with shot capacity only really affects me when i go to the rifle range. Because it only has a 50-60 capacity and because it has a 8 shot mag, you tend to find that you have shot 50-60 before you know it.
