:( :(
Well hatsan put new mod 87s on sale last week, have awsome 87 in .22 refurb thatis awsome.great velocity and accuracy .but guess what my NEW m0d 87 in .25 just did??
One shot...ONE over chrony and at target then done,just facts at me now in hatred...the one shot..hold your breath.......286fps..with jsb king....centered well on 10 yard target but foot low.suprised it went threw box.
Well if this is not my worse purchase ever,I don't know what is lol
Madd Hatter:
Sounds like you have a spring conversion in your future.
Charly45:
Maybe,waiting on reply from hatsan.but I really like nitro pistons..my other 87 in .22 works great...idk...thanx for reply

I would wait for the response from Hatsan. A new "good" rifle with paid return for the failed one would be good customer service.
Because I'm very familiar with Hatsan rifles and work on them often, I'd want Hatsan to send me a new Vortex so I could replace it myself.
I don't think it would void warranty if you used your Hatsan fill probe and a hand pump to refill the Vortex air spring.
Only pump to the recommended ~125bar. DON'T pump it up to the MAX LIMIT of 160bar.
I think this would be a wasted effort. I doubt the Vortex was shipped empty so am pretty certain it leaked and it WILL leak again even if refilled.
FYI... conversion to a coil spring or a Crosman NP gas spring is possible but NOT simple.

Thanx mike for the advise
I deffintly do not plan to touch it till I here something for sure.im sure I could replace it but no need since there is warrenty,but we will see I guess..just tells me there vortex pistons are not reliable long term.im sure this rifle bin around in box for a good while..it's real nice looker for sure.all bolts where tight,shroud tight and stright just dead heart ❤️ lol
I have plenty of good shooters,so I'm not stressed but a little disappointed
