Oh, one more thing - will I be able to get the valve to close using a pump afterwards - I've heard it can be tough to fill from totally empty with a pump. If not it's no big deal, can always take it to a shop to fill first time.

thanks again.

Yes you will - just be sure to cock the action before proceeding.

PS... try not to knock the barrel with the fig 8 clamp off, it's quite "springy, and shouldn't be a problem, but you'll probably have to re-zero when you put it back together again.
