Hi all I bought a Hatsan 125 Th .22 camo version with Spring not vortex. Well first shot I thought I had left the safety on it was that hard to pull the trigger also the vibration and harsh recoil ( I have been shooting a theoben rapid for a couple of years ) so the difference was unbelievable .
After a play with the trigger that is now pretty good also a de burr and lube tune a tight fitting Spring guide but had to go with a standard piston seal as no aftermarket seals here in Bulgaria old seal had a big chunk missing so was replaced
All put back together and fitted a sling and swivels scope is a hawke 4-12x50 So the outcome has made a powerful not bad to shoot gun much less vibration due to tight fitting Spring guide still a beast but much better
It's pushing jsb 18.13g @ 855 fps for 29.5 fpe
And H&N 21.14g @ 795 fps for 29.5 fpe
Accuracy wise it puts 10 shots inside a drawn 1 inch circle no problem @ 30 yards
All in all pretty pleased with it
It cost me here in Bulgaria 290 bgn that's $168 don't know whether that's good or bad

Sounds like a good one to Me, I have the .177 version that shoots 27.3 foot pounds after a refurbishing as well. Enjoy the power!! ;D

If you're looking for a seal for your rifle you might check with J Maccari

I can't guarantee he will ship to you, or what it would cost but it might be worth a email.

Thanks for the link Nathan my brother is coming over from England in the summer could get him to bring me one if the original one fails

I'd say that is a good Gun Mate.
The 125 with Spring is a very powerful platform.
You get use to it? You should be able to hit 1 to 1 1/2" at 70 to 80 yrds.
ARH does ship over Seas.
Just read his warning.
