Hello,
I received a new Bullboss a few days ago. The gun shipped with 2000 psi in the tank so I took her out and sighted her in yesterday. She was not as quiet as my Maurader but not too bad. Woke up this morning, filled her up and...now she sounds like a 22 rimfire!!!
How can I quiet this gun down?

Those are way to light. Your breaking the sound barrier.
Try the JSB's in a heavier grn.
Your's a .22 or .25?

A .177, you can stop laughing now (smile). I'm not a hunter and wanted a backyard plinking gun, and the .22s and .25s were on backorder.

I'd step up to a heavier pellet 1st off.
The Hatsans are powerful right out of the box so a lite pellet is going to break the sound barrier.
If your not using a regulator then the 1st shots will be really fast until the pressure drops.
And I'd never laugh at a .177 Own a few myself.

Thanks very much for the advice. I couldn't find any heavier pellets locally and had to order...agony until they get here!

Jeff is absolutely correct! Your Bullboss is pushing those Crosmans at over 1100 fps out of the box! It is a reasonably powerful rifle, and in .177 you need heavy ammo to shoot it well. It will be quieter with 12 or more grain pellets, and you will find the gun likes them heavy! It has a long barrel, and that gives it a good few extra fps out the muzzle.
I shoot the .22 myself, and I go for 18 gr or more pellet weight. I have shot CHPs (14.3 gr) at about 1050 fps (getting close to sound there).
Great gun, you will enjoy it!

Thanks very much for your reply. I wasn't sure how I would like a pup so I stepped out on faith when I brought it. Very happy so far. A fellow forum member, Rallyshark, walked me through adjusting my hammer spring and not only is she quiet but stacking pellets at 25 yds. I'm ordering some heavy Crossmans an JSB's. I plan on picking up a regulator soon.

Donny is "the" man for Bullboss stuff. (Secretly, I think he designed it ...)

I just messed up a lot of stuff on mine first, so I could tell others what not to do
The Bullboss and quite a few other Hatsans are just so tuneable. You can basically make them do just about anything you want, they are a tinkerer's delight!
