rs x8 - Good performance with room for improvement

Setting up the slingshot rifle took me about 30 minutes, which wasn’t too bad. The instructions were clear enough, and everything seemed to fit together well. I already had a CVLIFE 2.5-10x40e Red & Green Illuminated Scope from my hunting rifle, and it mounted easily on this slingshot, although I realized the laser is really only useful at night or in low light - not a big deal, but something to keep in mind.

Using it has been pretty solid. It’s accurate, and I’ve been able to hit targets consistently from around 25 to 50 yards, which is decent for what I need. It definitely has a good punch to it, and the shots feel powerful. Great for some target shooting or small game. It does what it’s supposed to, and that’s all I can ask for.

If I had to nitpick, I’d say it’s a bit bulky for my liking. Moving around with it isn’t super convenient, especially if you’re covering any real distance. A more compact design would make it easier to carry without feeling awkward. But hey, overall, it’s a good piece of gear with just a couple of things that could be better.

Shoots straight!

Very impressed with the power and accuracy. Smooth shipping to NSW. No issues.

rs-x8 review

Easy enough to assemble... Once the sight is calibrated properly its bang on deadly accurate at 50m and no problem reaching 100m plus...

good accuracy and power

Consistent 3 inch grouping at 40 yards.

reloading is a pain

Ended up returning mine in exchange for the RS-X7. this unit is too slow to reload after every shot.

Good accuracy out of the box

Only downside is that the scope needs to be calibrated every 100 or so shots as the bands will weaken overtime.

Solid unit, but slow shipping

Ordered mine before they started shipping domestically so I had to wait 3+ weeks

Good for hunting

Feels more satisfying and skillful to use then the .22 rifle, protects the property, crops and chickens from rabbits and wild dogs have sighted it in to be accurate for about 40m ammo is more abundant then your normal crossbows and firearms a good rock will do the trick, doesn't wake up the family in the middle of the night when livestock is under attack definitely of Australian hunting standards

Great for plinking targets in backyard

The only downside is that the rubbers last about 3-6 months depending on how much you use them

Sturdy, accurate, even without a scope

I tested the accuracy and it is right on. Straight and centered.
