Received this one today, it was a trade for some car stereo equipment I had stored away.
It was scoped with a Tasco 6-24x42 and fitted with an silencer, I know I know,
fully legal here though:)
The gun has 8 shot mag and room in the stock for 2 spare mags, there is also
a pressure gauge and 3 power levels available.
Also a FX pump in the package as well as some pellets, crappy ones though so guess
they'll end up as 9mm bullets for my Career.
First things first, after unpacking I oiled it down and pulled through a few times,
scope was mounted a tad skew but have to try the new toy first
and I ran out of patience:)
Shot a few mags just getting the feel of it and I must say the cocking is REALLY
different and takes some getting used to, on instinct I want to pull the rifle
tight to my shoulder but with this gun that will only result in putting another
pellet in the barrel.
However it only took a couple mags before I was aquinted with it and really found it
a pleasure to cock, it's almost too easy and FX says a mag can be fired in about 3
seconds, I do not doubt that.
The feel of the gun is also solid and a pleasure to hold with a light weight at 2.7kg
or 5.9lbs, almost too light for my taste but for those hunting it'd be perfect.
I've not done a proper shot string yet but I pushed a 21gr Barracuda through the
chrony after shooting a serie and it was doing just over 30ft.lbs or around 42J,
factory says it gets 30 shots per fill on full power.
So power is respectable but what about accuracy?
After a quick sight in I shot 5 shots at 50 yards with the result you see
above, definitly acceptable:)
I also shot 4 shots as quickly as I could cock and aim with this result, it was quick...
More pictures for your viewing pleasure.
Indeed a great and fun gun.
