Hello

I recently visited my local rfd to buy my first pre charge. 25 cal.
I wanted this for very close ratting in a barn area. I was offered a brand new kral puncher in. 25 for good money. I must admit that I was sceptical but agreed to have a look at one. I was impressed. Nice Turkish walnut stock, good weight and balance and shouldered beautifully. I have a few rapids and a day state at home so I have a decent yard stick to go by.

Excited, I hurried home to set my new little Turkish buddy up.

23yard garden and target set up.... It all went wrong. I couldn't hit A4 paper. In fact none of the shots were within metre of the target. Started single feeding the pellets and, from 12 yards, my best "group" was a random scattering of 10 pellets inside of a 10 inch circle with one flyer outside of this!

I started to check things from the muzzle end backwards. I immediately saw the crown was damaged, not cut central to the bore and wasn't cut straight. That might explain things.

Back to rfd and back to range right to get it resolved. Now this thread seems negative but I hold out for a positive finish. The truth is that the gun felt so right. It cycled smoothly and I was gutted with the accuracy. So I shall update in due course, letting you know how this is concluded.

Fingers crossed

Dan
