Umarex Octane 22

Nice group!
Ah, the Umarex Octane in 22 cal. That was where it all began for me. Shooting it felt good, I mean, really good. But, I told myself and my loved ones that I could stop any time I wanted to. Before I knew it, I had tried nearly every pellet available in 22. I started staying up late, surfing the internet, dreaming about a PCP rifle. Grab A Gun grabbed me with a too-low-to-resist price on a Gamo Urban. That thing was lights-out accurate out to 50 yards. It wasn't long before I was trying to hide the callouses on my trigger finger from my family and friends. Started working more overtime to feed the addiction, always lying to myself and saying, just one more gun. Now I have a stable of airguns, doing my best to stay one step ahead of a twelve-step program. The Octane went to a coworker. The Urban went to a fellow veteran who had my back, back in the day. Spreading the infection!

I really like mine too, lots of power, you just have to know how to tame it. add a soft butt pad and using 5.54 and 5.55 mm pellets really helps accuracy. Tree rats do not have a chance Thump!!!/Twack!!! and down, no moving more than two or three feet after that. I think the answer is the H&N 5.55 diameter pellets!
