Overview
The Brocock Sniper XR is a British semi-bullpup pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle chambered for .22 calibre pellets. Built on Brocock's XR sidelever platform, it pairs a choked Lothar Walther match-grade barrel with a factory-fitted Huma Air regulator, a three-position power adjuster and a rapid-cycling sidelever action feeding from a rotary magazine. Aimed at pest control, hunting and field target shooting, it produces up to 30 ft/lbs in .22 and features an integral shroud with a built-in sound moderator.

Notes
Also offered in .177 and .25 calibre; the Sniper XR Magnum variant raises output to roughly 46 ft/lbs in .22 and 55 ft/lbs in .25. Not a firearm in the conventional sense — a spring-free, pre-charged pneumatic airgun.
Background
Brocock, based in Birmingham and part of the Daystate group, built its reputation on compact sidelever PCP airguns; the Sniper XR extends the XR platform with a longer barrel and shroud for improved accuracy and moderation.
