    Thought I'd add my tuppence worth to this thread now I've had my Vulcan a month or so.

    I got mine from Krale, took about six days including a weekend and a strike in France, so pretty impressive.

    Arrived in a plastic carry case, in a box, in another box, with 200 bar in the cylinder

    I've had a cricket but really didn't like the cocking lever being behind your lug 'ole. The forward cocking lever is what made this rifle appeal to me, that and the fact it is far and away the best looking bullpup on the market!

    I thought I'd like left handed cocking being a right handed shooter, but in fact after experimenting, I've got the cocking lever on the right, keeping my left hand under the butt when shooting from a bipod. This means only minimal arm movement to cock the gun after a shot ready for the next one.

    The gun is silly accurate as most good modern PCPs are and will one hole group at 25 yards which is as long as I can shoot in my back garden. Over the chrono, I've not witnessed more than a 2 or 3 FPS spread over a magazine. I've not tried it at 250 bar down to 100 bar but will do in due course. I'm using AA Diablo field 4.52, not bothered trying anything else as there seems no point.

    I think a drawback of bull pups is difficulty in holding a consistant head position, for me anyway. I have a pulsar n870 mounted on it. Being a dedicated digital NV set up, head position isn't critical as there is no parrallax error

    It seems heavy at first. In fact it is a lightweight but seems heavy due to its compact size.

    It also seems a bit 'twangy'. This may be down to my ear being so close to the action, I may be able to tune this a little once my confidence in servicing it grows a bit.

    The cocking felt a little rough out of the box. A very basic strip, clean and lube improved this somewhat, but it probably needs a few hundred firing cycles to settle it down a bit.

    Mags are spring loaded and were a little fiddly to load, certainly in .177, but once you get used to them, they're fine.

    Shot count is high. Don't know how high yet as I tend to go out, check zero and shoot a few rabbits, but I've only filled it once, and then only to 200 bar as that's all that's left in my fill cylinder, though it can be filled to 250 bar.

    This gun is .177 and is currently mainly used for rabbiting on my local golf course. As an aside, having not used the girls calibre for rabbiting before, I can highly recommend it!

    The only bad thing I can see is the guns complexity. It comes with an exploded diagram that makes the gun look very complicated and with no service agent in the UK (that I know of) and not much information yet on the net, if it does go wrong, then it might be an issue. I can strip an rebuild my Rapids and FXs in minutes. This will take a little longer but till it needs it, I'll leave it alone.

    Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're probably right.
