That's great numbers I plan on using the JSB 8.44 as I have 12 tins of them lolIt's also why I ordered up some 7.0 grain RWS Meisterkugeln WCs. As much as I love heavy pellets for squirrels, wadcutters are even more fun on sparrows. ZAP! The best part is there's a whole lot of room for tuning with the trigger, TP, hammer spring tension, and regulator all being adjustable from the get-go. SPA really delivered a great platform.I think you'll be reallllllly happy with your pistol. Mine is easily my most accurate airgun- even more so than my QB-79 (heresy!). That's great to hear! If it's anywhere close to the trigger and accuracy of my Beeman P17 I'll be thrilled which im sure it'll be even better!

I preordered the Mrodair version the other night. I am pretty excited to get this pistol in my hands. I guess their version has a bit longer barrel, regulated, and the fill pressure limit is a bit higher. At least that is what is indicated on their webpage. At any rate, I have heard nothing but great things about the accuracy of this pistol and I am interested in joining in on the 5 and 10m matches here on GTA. Unfortunately Mrodair won't get them in until March sometime, but that isn't too far away...unless you are waiting for something
My adapter showed up from the UK today! I did have to do a little bit of filing down the inside of the very end of the shroud for it to fit all the way down, but we're talking a 30 second fix.Here she is all ready to go, and much quieter now(thanks to Rocker1). I should have some more pellets to test in the next couple of days. Then I'll see how it does with something besides the CPUM 10.5sOh, and apparently my regulator has settled in(up a little). After doing a good bit of shooting this weekend I guess the gun has hit it's stride now. I thought I had it tuned to about 740fps with the 10.5s, but I checked it today and it was consistently around 790fps. It appears to falling off the regulator around 110-115bar now. With that in mind, I cranked the hammer spring to see what it would do, and it hit 858fps with the 10.5s! 17fpe ain't bad at all for a little air pistol
That is a nice pistol. Also, an interesting red dot sight. Compared to something like a TRS25 or other small tube type sight, how much higher above bore line does it seem?
That same guy makes an adapter for the W model as well, and it is listed on his site. It took it a little over a week to get here. If I could get that regulator setting up more, it'd hit 20fpe I'm sure. Now, if I took the reg out of the system, who knows what it would do?! I do have some 13.4 grain pellets in route, so I'll see what they do for the fun of it I actually have it tuned to shoot about 14fpe right now. I don't know for sure how many shots it gets at that level, but at least 30. I'm really liking this thing for sure I just gotta get it tested with different pellets, and hopefully it will get it's first blood soon.

Mine has shot well with everything between 7.4 grains and 15.1, from RWS Hobby WC all the way up to H&N Sniper Magnums. The thing I find most amazing is mine does well with domes, hollow points, wad cutters, and pointed pellets. Hence my signature.
Im so excited to get mine!!! Yours is turning out awesome can't wait to see your testing of pellets

I know the CPUM 10.5s work wellWhen all my pellets show up I'll be testing:Beeman Kodiak 10.65 domesJSB Exact Monster 13.4H&N Terminator 7.25H&N Barracuda Hunter 10.34H&N Barracuda Hunter Extreme 9.57I know that is three hollow point varieties, but I really want to find one that shoots well. I love the Terminators and Barracuda Hunters in my .22s. They lay the smack down quite well without just poking a hole
Donny have you ever seen these dovetail to weaver adapters from UTG since they fit right in the weaver part of the mount and do not raise the sight any more than the screw on rail you used and would require no drilling and tapping to mount the dot sight or scope for that matter.I have used them on several of my guns with good success. The only rails they don't fit good are ones that have a rounded surface between the dovetails (QBs as an example ) since they need a flat dovetail to work properly.Mike
Well...just going to mention, looks like MrodAir is picking up this version as the MKII.....pre-order at $200...even though I have the .22 "Kermit the frog" version, may have to consider adding this .177 version to the herd.
Good to hear. Hey by any chance Donny do you know the Oring sizes? If not that's alright but do plan on going through mine to change them all out to buna-n 70 rings. Can't seem to find anywhere to find the sizes of them. Thanks ahead of time!
