    Exclamation Incoming

    Hi Adam
    Multi-pump pistols in the past, like the Crosman, just about get a pellet out of the barrel on one pump, needing at least 2 or 3 to get a usable velocity.
    So how come my C130 is currently leading the Vintage shoot?
    It aint because I'm a brilliant shot. I KNOW i'm not

    Jim, your incoming has acquired the wrong target!
    It was Jim McA who said about multi-pumps being toys, not me!

    I merely said the pellet barely gets out of the barrel with one pump, which was true of both the Crosmans I used to own (1377 and 1322). Velocity with one pump was about what you could get by throwing a pellet. If you were prepared to do the hard work of 10 pumps you could get 5.5 fpe but it's a lot of work for one shot. The Alecto seems to address that big drawback.
