I like it! Nice review and nice little gun.

Mine isn't a peep sighted .22 but I have the other 280 he refers to. It is a really nice shooter.

Mine is .177 with a leapers 3-9x32, I consider it my most accurate rifle.

Its fairly light and easy to handle.

This was one of my first groups at 35yds rested but not an ideal setup, the first two groups on the left were boxed cphp domes the group on the right is H&N ftt. The flyer was my error. I have sleeved the piston and used Macari glue on buttons aswell as a new vortex piston seal and spring. Its just over 12lbs I also have a steel muzzle brake which helps the flip.

Congrats!

Thanks, as you probably noticed I didnt finish that target. Up until then had I never shot an airgun as accurate. Its not an HW but l think I will keep it for a while.
