It took forever to get her from AOA.
I bought her used for $415.00 tested and shipped.
It was worth the wait. They found it not shooting as strong
as it should so they rebuilt the valve.
After testing again, they were still not happy with it and put a new valve in it.
That did the trick. It is now getting 36 fpe with Kodiak Extra Heavy at 21.1 Gr.
They forgot to send the fill adapter so I had to wait a few days to get this in also
Next, I had to order a Tko to be able to use it in the yard. She is a real cannon.
The mod is amazing. It took it from making the neighbors dive in the ditch,
to, "did I hear something".
Last item I had to get was a 2 pc 30mm high scope mount for my leapers accushot
3-12X44 swat scope with side wheel adjuster. Thanks Andy Larspawn.
I finally got everything together and within 20 quick off the knee shots, I had her
hitting a quarter at 20 yards. I took her out today and tried three different pellets
at 20 yards from a bench. I finished my zero and then set up a target.
First up was the CPHP 14.3. I took three shots, made an adj right and low.
Next shot was almost a complete Bulls eye with the next a little higher.
(Target Size A Penny)
Second 5 shot group was with the Beeman Kodiak Heavy 21.1 gr.
No adjustments were made and I had one high shot because of me shooting to fast.
Last 5 shot group was with the Predator Polymag 16 Gr.
No adjustments made to scope.
Thanks Randal for turning me on to this girl.
Ok, here is the gun porn and target.
I finally found my rifle.
