General Comments
I had this gun for about a year now, it was a .22 caliber, after about a thousand shots i modified the gun's piston. I drilled a hole into the piston to lighten up. Then i chrongraphed the pellet with the RWS super point and hollow point and i consistently measured about 1060ft/sec. ANd the accuracy is about a half inch to an inch and a half due to my shooting skill, with a better shooter it might be better; i also did this to my RWS 350 magnum, the power was amazing. I hope that anybody interested in trying this out they should let me know or give me a comment on it. The warranty is voided is you disassemble the gun but if you are truly interested in modifiying your gun then it is a great thing to try on your gun.
P.S. Do not use lightweight pellets....if you do it will as if you were dry-firing your gun (after modifications)
Have fun and good shooting!
