As I recall it was a bit smoky for the first 100 shots or so then it has settled down and behaved itself ever since.
I also have a .177 HW45 and it is not as smooth shooting as my .22, but to be fair it may not have been used as much.
When I bought the .177 it had both .20 and .22 calibre spare barrels to fit but not tried the .20 on it yet.
People who have been there focus on the fundamentals. People who sit at keyboards all day focus on the trivial and inane.
