HATSAN NOVA .25 INCOMING!

[2D1C]

I finally decided to pull the trigger (HAHA) on one. When I first was looking into the PCP game I wanted this gun, but a "friend" talked me into a Sumatra instead. I was going to sell or trade my 25 gn ammo but looks like this won't shoot the 34gn past mid 700's we'll see. Any and all tips and trick would be appreciated also who tunes these??

thanks in advance

I had to turn mine down with 34 grains, but mine is not stock 

Check out this post by the person who worked on mines. He don't do it for a business, but he's friend of mine and was curious about what he could get out of the gun

Thanks DB, I was hoping you would respond. A friend of mine is an old paintball dude who understands how these PCP's and he has two of the AT44's. He tried regulating one but he doesn't have enough air capacity to make it work well. I want to see if I can pump it up to shoot the KH in the mid 800's., Looks like with some valve moding and hammer tuning it is possible? Also I wanted to ask you where you got you CF bottle and after market parts.

I have mine set to shoot the 34 gr pellets at 840 fps. I tried them at 880 fps but for some reason about 3 out of 10 pellets spiraled. I got the carbon fiber from Aliexpress. You have to look at different sellers because the price varies. I also later replaced the 23 inch barrel with a 19 inch barrel.

Thanx! Happy Thanksgiving!!

The 500cc CF bottles are going for about $105-110 on Aliexpress. I've ordered 3-4 in the past, the last time I ordered one it took about 2 months to arrive. All the others took about 2 - 3 weeks to get to me.

My nova is great....31 gr h&n grizlly....only thing I could get it too shoot....won't shoot a jsb to save its life....but that's ok...the grizzly is badass...other than the 40 lbs the gun weighs it does its job...but I got a fx boss yesterday...I'm sure the nova will collect dust as there is just no comparison...its unbelievable

I'm different. I have 6 FX PCPs and I still shoot my Nova. I can hit anything out to 170-200 yards that I can hit with my FXs.
