Once you fill the tank though, if you refill at 1000 PSI or so, it will be much easier to fill. I highly recommend a 4500 PSI takn to fill your gun. Expensive at first but well worth the investment.

It has become my favorite gun. Lite, handy accurate and reliable. Rugged little gun. Accuracy is wonderful, just check toyr barrel retention screws and your barrel bushing set screws. It is shooting 18 gr JSBs into single ragged holes at 25 yards. Not bad for a 12 in barrel.

It is much quieter than without it and the only thing I can fault it for is that the set screw has gouged a hole in it. If it isn’t tight, the pellets start to mainly drop and eventually fly all over the place. It’s a simple fix when I notice the pellets straying about to re tighten…Read more

The real key is trying many different types and brands of pellets to see what individual gun likes best.

Degreased the hammer and reset the top hat. I checked the shroud for clipping as well. I think it best to adjust my hold and just shoot it a lot then check it in a month or so.

Thank you so much ! The tank was filled to 2900 psi and went down to 2700 psi after the fifteen shots. Could it be valve locked ?

I can deal with a little twang as long as the pellets go into the same hole. I’m thinking it’s probably the balance between spring tension and top hat adjustment. Mine is set at .085.

It’s a great gun if I can to get it to shoot as it’s supposed to i’ll be a very happy lady.

The power wheel is on 6. One shot “POP” in the group, the next “PFFT” down way low on the target and the next one “POP” in or near the group.
