I have a Red Wolf standard that shoots 10.3 pellets at about 885 fps on high power. I added the 700cc bottle to it and get at least 260 shots on high power. I usually fill it once I'm about 150 bar and don't usually run it down to the low pressure (130 bar??). Low power setting gets me about 12 fpe.

@engfred has posted a link to his instruction set on how to make "factory tables" for the different projectiles for the DW. Ive been working thru them to create tables for my DW HP w/23" barrel for 8.4 and 10.3 pellets. The Daystate software only has tables for those weights in the 17" barrel...

I've had product delivered by Fedex with the bill coming in the mail after delivery

I need my progressives for reading and fine print. I leave them on for shooting. Partly for safety and partly for convenience

Best you might get is a partial refund due to a re-stocking fee if they receive the gun back. Someone has to pay the extra shipping charge for the return trip.

Are you sure there will be nothing extra? Just because it is not on your invoice from the vendor does not mean it will get into the country without fees. I may be mistaken but the EU has a 10% minimum tariff applied against all products at this point in time. That's the whole point. Tariffs get...

When ordered from outside the EU, it's possible that import duties are applied by your own country This is from Krale's website. What else should they do? Anyone importing something should do their due diligence and not be asking to be spoonfed because they're unwilling to do it. It's now a...

Why would/should any company want to take on that cost and responsibility? It is up to the purchaser to contact their local customs office, explain what has been purchased, cost and country of origin. The customs office would then give them an idea of the import fees on that day, subject to...

That may be so but once the product leaves the shipping dock Krale has fulfilled their end of the contract. The shipping company now has the responsibility to get the product to the end user. Krale would need a special department to keep track of all the countries import fees, especially the US...

At the end of the day it's not Krale's problem. They advertised a product for a given price and you agreed to pay that price. It doesn't matter whether UPS brings it into the country for you or you fly to the Netherlands and bring it home with you the tarriffs/taxes imposed by the US government...

UPS and FedEx charge brokerage fees on top of any government taxes. They can be substantial

Manufacturing isn't coming back because people are greedy. Everyone wants union wages and benefits while they shop at Walmart. Companies are in business to make a profit and rightly so.

You forgot the most important one: I'm old, I can now afford it, I want nice toys :)

Wish I could do that

I translate the image out to a dxf file and then bring into Solidworks where I can manipulate it as required before sending it for laser cutting
