I have spent a little more time with mine since I posted in the "Fan Club" thread so my current take is.......I really like this gun. It is very accurate, not too loud and pounds whatever it hits. It is heavier than I would like for a hunting gun so when I go out I usually take the Varmint. I intend to use the Sentry for squirrel next year when I plan to have a bipod on it. If I can get out with the predator call I will take the Sentry for that. I would love to bust a coyote with it because it has plenty of power to at least fifty yards.

 Mine is down with sear issues, haven't tore into it yet to determine what caused the issue.

I bought an early prototype from Mike. It used a fill probe rather than a foster fitting. It suffered from numerous teething problems. Mike was a rock star in trying to supply repair parts and advice.
It had a pleasing feel and handled well. I'm thinking about trying his new & improved deluxe model.
Does anyone currently own one and your thoughts?

There was something on his blog about the Deluxe model. 177,22 and .25 offerings. Less than $300 from what I recall. Calling Mike is much better than email I've been told (by him). Prior to noon Central time is best. Don't hesitate to leave a message with contact info,he's always returned my calls.
I'm looking forward to folks experience with the newest model.

I have one in .22 (702-3), Feels great and shoots straight.
I was impressed that it came with 3 mags and the fact the power is adjustable. I have it set up for night time pesting with an LED flashlight on the lower rail piece. I just swapped scopes around and now have a C/P 4-16x40  Illuminated on it that needs zeroed.
I need to shoot it more but spring is on it's way. So far is is NOT pellet picky (see attached 25 yd target)
