- Accuracy

I was very excited when i got it - my first impression was: what a huge thing.
a good point definitely is the power. with a good scope you can successfully hit and penetrate metal cans (yes metal, not aluminium) at 80 m distance, (ranged with a leupold RXIII). A good point also is the workout you get cocking and shooting it the whole day long. since this is my first air rifle, i cannot compare the accuracy to other airguns ...
the accuracy. on good days i get 3-4inch groups at 80 m.
Bad Points
The recoil is seriously punishing to scopes... that`s a BIG problem.
though i mostly shoot at the same distance (around 80 m) i have to readjust the scope at least 2-3 times every 30 - 50 shots. the thing is ether loosening the mount or - if it is really fixed tight - breaking the scope. dont even try a cheap scope - it won`t last long...
after about 500 shots, my scope dissasembled itself on the inside.
After about 300 shots more, the barrel-rubber-ring got lost. after having that replaced, the pressure suddenly dropped massively and it turned out having to be sent to the dealer for repair. 3 weeks waiting. got the thing back and everything was fine,- until about 1 month and 700 more shots, the thing broke again while cocking. bad luck? no idea. thing is, the dealer decided to order a whole new 1250 for me. let`s see what happens next...
General Comments
great thing IF it works, i repeat, IF. would i by this gun again? probably not, with all the anger and waiting and money involved, i would probably go for an pre charged daystate or airarms. (almost) same power, stiff barrel .... better quality.
obviously kinda pissed.
