Squash wavy Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Hi guys. I have a 30in barrel Field version of this. Bought brand new with case etc. I wanted to sell it likely for an A400 Xcel. What are your thoughts on the Xcel? Also, I wanted to post mine in the for sale section, hopefully someone up for a swap (that's how I found the forum actually) but for some reason it won't let me. Is there a post count or something? Cheers, Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggum Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Welcome to the forum I have got the A400 xplor light and love it already put about 1500 carts through it and not a single jam or problem. They are nice and simple to strip and clean I also believe the xcel has the additional kickoff built in to minimise the kick with heavy loads. The only thing that put me off the excel is the blue receiver but that's all down to personal choice. Don't think you can go wrong with a beretta though.

Squash wavy Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Cheers Wiggum, I couldn't figure out the proper differences between the Xplor Light and the Xcel. I actually like the blue receiver!!! Is Xplor more game orientated and Xcel more sporting orientated? That's what I concluded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squash wavy Posted September 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Quite the split opinion! I love the build quality if the Silver Pigeon, much better than the Fausti Warwick I have. The Fausti does feel to fit me better though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardwoods Green Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 I was at Doveridge today and a bloke was chopping in an Xcel that he bought new last week! What does that mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squash wavy Posted September 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 That the boy has more money than sense?! Could really do with trying one out and seeing how it feels. Just don't know anywhere. I will be going to Hodnet to get a gun fitting done and some tuition to find the error of my ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
