I have looked on Hatsan web site and several other places and cant seem to find the official cocking effort of the Hatsan 125 Sniper Vortex .25 cal.
Could someone tell me the cocking effort of the Hatsan 125 Sniper Vortex .25 cal ?
Thanks

33LBS on the .22, but it's the same engine as the .25.

Well Im not going to complain about that. For the likes of me and Im not sure why I never really checked for sure but I had it in my head that it was much higher just like the Ben Trail NP is.
Anyway thanks for the response and Im a happy camper to hear its that low.
Oh yes by the way I should mention that since the cocking force is so reasonable then you would think they would advertize that feature more than they do.

I have heard measurements of cocking effort to be done on a bathroom scale by placing the butt of the gun on the scale while cocking the gun and getting the highest reading before it catches.
Not sure to this method. I test cocking effort in a different manner using a hand scale to pull from the muzzle down to the catch and it records the highest reading.
Not saying the first method is wrong or invalid......just how I have heard folks do it. ;D

Well thats a pretty cool idea. After I get the gun I will try and remember that. Heck Im just happy that its much lower than I thought it was.
Thanks for the info.
