I will be getting a guppy or similar sometime in the next year. Honestly I don’t feel much of a rush, the current set up is working really well!

It’s nice to hear from folks who have been where I am and can offer some insight. I think I I’ll be getting Joes guppy. Eelect, Joe has it listed on his site as 18 cu ft, am I missing something?
Thanks again everyone!

It was awesome! Great details on the rifle, plenty of power and really quite quiet for what it is. I am saving as we speak! I believe he stated that he was looking into doing a .45 and a .303.

Right now, I’m at 930. I like the power, but the groups opened up around 50 yards when it was shooting 950. I’m going to see what these groups look like before I take it apart again.

Good luck, and let us know how the HSTA work for you!

As far as the adjuster, I had emailed him a while back and was referred to another guy who has yet to respond. Does anyone know another vendor for a similar adjuster?

Overall, I am glad I spent the money. Looking forward to some carefree shooting!

Then I pumped and pumped. 2 hrs later I am shooting JSBs at 915. That might look really nice with the new 30gr JSB. MY 80 yard group was also much nicer this time around. I may pull it all apart again, but I need to forget some of that pumping first.

Is this normal? Also, it was shooting the JSBs in the 970s. I’m not totally averse to having that kind of power. What if I slowed it down with a heavier pellet? It was shooting Kodiak match (31gr) at around 920. Any decent…Read more

How do I know what my regulator is set to? Is it when it falls off?

I will try adjusting the HST, hopefully that’s the fix!

Also, how do I take the shroud off? I tried spinning it off CcW, but it seems like it’s never coming off.

Thanks for the help! It’s a little disappointing when you spend this kind of money, I was hoping to just be able to get out and shoot”

When I last checked, it was pushing JSB kings in the 950s. Is the video on his YouTube channel? Does he have a website?

However, after I shot about 100 pellets through I cleaned it. It was pretty dirty. There were pieces of metal. I have not checked the barrel alignment or tightening. I saw Earnests video on reassembling the air tube and breech. I’m assuming I just tighten it like that? The criss cross…Read more

I will look into those. I recently sold an MRod that I spent quite a bit of time tuning, etc. is it really that easy on the cricket? Maybe because of the regulator?

I love the zero feature that allows you to adjust your holdovers and then return to zero. The only issue I have is the space allowed for lights, lasers, etc. it is a small scope, but it isn’t light. :2cents:
