Just pushed the button on my very own Career Fire 202s.  I know it is not a beginners PCP it does fill my requirements to hunt coyotes and medium game.  I can't wait and need all the help you guys can give a newbie.

Congratulations! Do you have you charging options lined up (tank, pump)? You are starting at the high powered end for sure, and I think it will do the job for you.

I don't think PCP's replace springers, but they are their own powerful and unique family. The Careers are like powder burners in my experience.

I am going to try and use tank Nitrogen. I use it a lot at work and have my own tank.  I have read that nitrogen is better for pcp's and careers use a lot of air so I don't want to have to pump it up all the time.

I have a 201 S and it is good rifle . The 201 S was really chambered for a .357 not a 9 mm so you might check that out before you buy a lot of ammo . Very accurate with the right ammo  Keep us posted .Marvin

Rocky it did . But the stock fill probe is a leaky problem at best . Do your self a favor and get a foster nipple from Leroy who makes them or Randy who sells them . Randy has a good big bore hunting forum as well .Marvin

I bought the QD fitting for my Sam Yang 909 from LeRoy and I'm glad I did. It beats the heck out of the leaky fill probe, plus I can fill my B50 and my 909 interchangeably without swapping probes.
IIRC the 909 and the 201/202 are very similar in design. They look pretty much alike. Just different caliber. if the 202 is like my 909 it's kinda loud. Not too bad, though. I can dry fire my 909 in my bedroom and it doesn't even hurt my ears. Evan a subsonic .22 lr will make your ears ring if you try that.
