Looks nice but looks like it's too long for my GF... Give me a while to read the manual, give it some hands on time and I'll post my first impressions...

It's nice, I like it so far, smooth action, quiet with the included shroud, it's raining here all day so no chance to dial it in or do any actual shooting... I have to call the vendor, the single shot tray was missing from the box, everything else checks out so far, holding air, put a couple shots into the pellet trap indoors to see how quiet it is... It's very quiet... The butt pad is adjustable up and down...

More to come... Ken
 
So, I made some cheap disposable targets for shooting groups etc... An old piece of coroplast, cut into pieces, some bamboo skewers, broke in half and a couple minutes with a hot glue gun... This is what I ended up with...

I wanted to check out my Tac Vector 4-12x44 FFP scope out in place of the junk I had on my Jager... As I stated earlier the Jager is a shooter, granted this is only twenty five yards, but I am quite seriously shooting from a most unstable and awkward position... (don't ask)

I'll let the photo speak for itself, and @Doug, I clean my new barrels first with lead, then balistol... ;-)

5 shots, 25 yards... A dime was too big...

Not too bad considering the rifle is unregulated, this is bone stock, straight out of the box...
