So I have had this rifle now for 2 or 3 months... I have always been amazed by it's accuracy and crisp trigger.
This gun shoots brilliantly, there are two often mentioned flaws 1) the on trigger safety is often faulted as not the best but I find it very handy, 2) the power adjustment is just a wheel with no indexing, on this I can agree it would be very nice to have the power index have at least 3 firm clicks if not 5.
I topped it with a FFP Vortex 4-16X x50 with 30mm tube. My best run with it thus far from a "mechanical rest" (a bubba version of a caldwell lead sled) at 50M below is attached. I have used it on starlings a fair bit, with one awesome day running all but 3 of 37 shots solid hits, (2 mags after the first keep 9 in the spare as the pellet tends to fall out of the open hole).
But otherwise the weight and balance of this rifle are superb, and the accuracy is well unnatural, it leaves you almost wondering why you missed. The gun has a sweet spot for shooting full power pressure 2900 to 2200 ish psi per the pressure gauge on my Hill Mk3 pump and 60 to 75 pumps get you back to the peak pressure giving about 40 shots max.
Pics below, gun to be cleaned and oiled shortly after photo session
