What is it you primarily plan on shooting with this future Cometa? Depending on your application there may be better suited rifles.

Or have you decided on buying a Cometa and that is that?

I own a .22 Cometa and after shimming the barrel to breech block assembly properly I AM capable of 1/2" at 35yards. I also shimmed the breech o-ring seal and now it is shooting consistent. The trigger is plastic but light and crisp and I like it very much, and that never created any issues. I shoot mine scoped, so I can't help with the sights. My cometa shoots hard and I am planning on de tuning it to a sub 12fpe rifle in the near long future.

Pest control, plinking and accuracy up tu 30 meters. I'm not sure this gun or Diana panther 340 n-tec. What was the performance of your gun out of the box?
P.S. You said that your cometa shoots hard you mean by that it's too much power or...?

There was something wrong with it out of the box. It turned out that it wasn't shimmed properly, no attention to detail at all.
