After a rough and slow acquisition process, I was finally able to shoot my Impact yesterday for the first time. I'm incredibly impressed with the way it slings lead, I ran several magazines full of 44gr Hatsan Vortex pellets at some paper 60 and 75y out (these pellets aren't so great btw - about 1 out of every ~7-8 were fliers - the edges of the skirts were not uniform with material).
I zeroed at 60 and the first 6 pellets left a hole smaller than a quarter. 75y was also no sweat for it. I just wish that I had a longer distance to target yesterday at my secondary outdoor target spot (the better spots with longer ranges were taken).
In terms of shot count, I didn't quite get a full 3 mags per fill - however, I haven't tuned it yet. The valve stop was probably out waaay too far, and I didn't dial it down. I'll definitely get her tuned right where it should be when I get the rest of my slug kit tomorrow.
Also, quite to my surprise - the power wheel is something else!!! I dialed down from max to min, and the pellet just lobbed out. I was not at all expecting that dramatic of a speed decrease - I'm extremely happy about this!!!
If the 23gr NSAs group nearly as well, then I'm going to be pretty a happy camper. I guess the Impact hype was for real after all <3
