    Good Points: World class trigger, superbe accuracy, high manufacture quality, and can be adjusted to fit your body/position like a glove.


    Bad Points: 1.5 pounds too heavy for me. I only weight 155 lbs.
    The gun is about 10.5 lbs, but my scope and mount and a butt hook, made it 12.5 lbs total.


    General comments: The Anschutz CA2025 that I owned is the updated (newer) version than the one Brad Troyer reviewed in American airguns, see website...

    The difference is
    1. A full 25 inch all steel barrel (same length as the barrel shroud), longer and heavier than the old 16.5 inch barrel.

    2. A shorter air cylinder, without the pressure gauge, but replace with a quick fill adaptor.

    3. The stock is a little different. The earlier version has a plastic trigger guard, while mines is all wood, integrated into the stock.

    The first change is to make the rifle shoot better as claimed by the Anschutz manual. The manual said the barrel help reduce vibration. I think also, that Anschutz suspect that the air turbulence inside the barrel shroud affects the pellet so they made the 25 inch (64cm) steel barrel. The earlier model has the same barrel and shourd as the 10-meter air rifle (CA2002). For a 10-meter gun with a muzzle velocity of 570 fps, that is OK, but this CA2025 has a muzzle velocity of about 930 fps! Yes, a lot more air Turbulence. The 25 inch barrel is almost flush with the barrel shroud, no air turburance! Based on Anschutz factory spec, the rifling is every 42cm that is about 1.5 twists in that 25 inch barrel. This barrel give a pellet more spin than the 16.5 inch barrel thus stabilized the pellet in
    flight even more.

    The second change is mostly balancing the rifle better.

    My 2025 comes with a test target at 20 meters (5 shots), one rag hole. Companies such as Anschutz, and FWB test each match rifle by locking only the action and barrel to the test bench. They mainly want to confirm that the gun shoots. If you torque that action and barrel down to its stock correctly, and shoot it, it will yield a tighter group.
