Lots of the reviews i read stated problems with the loading mechanism and jamming, i have found if you keep it clean and lubricated you will have no issues at all.

I have chronographed mine and got 11 ft ibs steady over 30 shots
I have it sighted in for 35-40yds and it will drop bunnies at this range all day long.
The 88g CO2 lasts for 100 ish shots, i dont know where people are getting 300 or more from.

The only problem i had was shooting in cold weather.
Early mornings, late evenings if the temp is below 14C dont even bother!!

CO2 does not like cold and the gun pretty much stops working... i had a 25 yd rabbit in the light and could not get anywhere near it!!

I have now converted mine to PCP and its an awesome piece of kit.

This is a great gun and its well priced but look into its application before you jump in.

Only idiots write bad reviews.
