Thanks Matt ! I am going to clean the barrel and try it out of the box and through the chrony. I would love to get max power without sacrificing accuracy of course. Maybe you can steer me in the right direction for custom parts. Thanks again.

Congratulations!   They are really nice guns with good knockdown power.  What scope are you going with, long range I hope.

Nice, that will do.  What is your backyard range if shooting there?

Sounds like a similar setup as Tom (Tracker 1955) in La Vergne and me.

Works for me and I'll mention this to Tom if he misses this.  Tom has more space for 50-yards than me to shoot, maybe you have even a wider spot than him to shoot for three of us.

Sounds good. I want to find someone that will let us hunt their property. Maybe we can workout a lease with someone.

Sounds like a nice set-up you have. I am using a hand pump right now for my condor. Going to get a tank soon.
