Light weight: Even with a scope fitted, a standard Brocock Compatto weighs around eight pounds which makes it easy to handle in all the shooting stances. Moreover, its muzzle is not heavy and more of its weight is centered on the rear, which means you can rapidly move the gun towards the target.

Elevated cheek weld: For hunting purposes, the Brocock Compatto is an easy-to-shoot option also because of its unique cheek weld provided by the buttstock. It also helps in maintaining a consistent accuracy.
Robust 10-shot magazine: Rotary magazine of the Brocock Compatto is convenient to mount and load. A robust magazine is necessary if you are on a long hunting trip.
Aesthetics

All the metallic parts are covered with different finishes but still they blend together quite elegantly. The rubber rear of the gun also goes well with the overall metallic body.
If you are fond of high quality air guns and also have a frequent use of them then the Brocock Compatto might be the best high-end option.
