 rufousdog's recommendation | |
Nice quality scope
Easy muzzle break
Rubber butt pad
All weather construction materials
Very heavy gun
Hard to aim accurately due to weight
Relatively long trigger pull
I admit that I am new to this sport. I've never owned or shot a rifle other than a BB gun until now. I too bought mine from PryamidAir as it seemed a great deal for the price. I wasn't disappointed, as it appears to be well worth it. Overall quality of materials and workmanship seems fine, considering that most stuff is made in China these days.
Mounting the scope was relatively easy, however it needed quite a bit of adjustment by trial and error to get it accurate. The instructions were not at all helpful, but at least they were not in broken English, either. Apparently the trigger is adjustable but I haven't figured how to do that yet.
My only concern is with the weight of this gun, for to me it seems very heavy. At thirty yards I am able to hit within a 2" target consistantly, but I wish I could steady it better. It's not the accuracy of the gun that's at issue here, but the fact that it is very difficult to hold it perfectly still while aiming it. The longer I take in trying to sight the target, the less steady I am. After about 6-10 shots muscle fatigue sets in and my aim becomes less steady.
