    Hi Will, it is a superb rifle matey. Quite litterally pellet on pellet with JSB 4.53s @ 35 yards (honestly, I $h!t you not ), and exactly 64 good equal power shots per charge before drop off due to the on board BSA regulator . Very nearly bought it back in actual fact, but sticking to the Scorpion as my token pcp now until I can afford an R-10 . Atb m8: G.

    Excellent collection with some real airgun icons in there including the HW35/50/80, FWB Sport, RWS45 and even a Relum Tornado.

    Cheers Gareth, Cant wait now, I have a vintage german sniper to put on top the glass is so clear , 64 shots sounds good to me, I was tempted to hold back and by a T10 but that could be my 38th

    Cheers
