since my last review I have made a few additions to my gun, a new scope (simmons 4-12 X 40) and was amazed by how well the gun reacted to this scope, within 1 hour the scope was dot on for 30 yards.



A few months later I decided that a theoben gas ram was in order. Well now it is unbeatable in power and accuracy and all other aspects of shooting. the gas ram really does make a phenominal difference to the guns power and accuracy and noise. After fitting the ram i wasted no time in trying it out, the pellet went through sheet steal at 25 yards, if this isn't power then what is? i later took it out on a shooting session, I took a rabbit from 50 yards clean in the head and it blew the back of its skull off!



ok the new scope and the gas ram both add a bit of weight but the gun is still perfectly ballanced to shoot. I would highly recomend putting the gas ram into the gun even though it is a fiddly job. This combo is probably the best i have ever used or seen. in one word UNREAL!
