I actually got it all put back together from my first attempt at a lube tune.

Didn't really change anything, just cleaned all that used axle grease out of it and then polished up some rough surfaces. Going back together had me worried especially with all the new cuss words I made up on the first one, the Fast Deer wanna be. But with a little fiddling I got it working.

Shot about 30 pellets through it and it still has a little smoke happening but shoots real smooth.

Chrony says 765 to 770 and it groups fair for open sights.

Sounds cool smacking boards at 15yds to!!

I'll fiddle with the sights later when the wind calms down.

Thats really cool breaux.. Just step right into the guts of a shooter and lube her up and she shoots great..
 I really don't have the time for all that with my numerous addictions...  I still prefer to send it off and let someone else play with thie guts..
 I'm glad ya got her going first try...   She looks to be a good shooter now, just a little site adjustment and thats it...

I'm not touching my TX200, the RWS 34, or the HW77! They are all just fine.

Now what about this little IZH60?? It sure has a sweet trigger. If it only had a little more power to go with it!
