After seeing numerous complaints online from people having issues with their Taipan Light rifle and after my previous review having personally experienced some of this same issues, I was keen to look at the new design of the Southern Cross Small Arms Taipan X rifle.
This rifle has had some redesigns being a brass deflector, a hybrid spring assisted pump and straight pull bolt action, removal of the original bolt catch and a new hammer promising faster lockup times.
I put the rifle through it's paces and thankfully had no sticking issues or malfunctions with this new Taipan X. I don't like the lack of a lock forward on the pump action like you'd see on the Remington 7615 and I wasn't a fan of the bolt lock of the Taipan X, however it shot Federal Premium 62gr Trophy Bonded Tip ammo into 0.8" @ 100 yards just like I achieved with it's predecessor The Taipan Light.
