  Not the standard, but I got a 440TH model a while back.

  The cocking effort is surprisingly heavy, it stacks up real quick on you, and the last bit to get the piston to latch seems heavier than my 470TH.
  That is with a box stock rifle, no tune, no lube job. At only 100 to 125 pellets through it, it is still a bit twangy, and that will probably need to be addressed.

  Very accurate out to 25 yards so far using FTT in 4.52 head size.
The shot cycle is very close to a Model 46 if you've shot one. You get a nudge to the rear and the pellet is off flying.
