It was great but could have been better if I had the PP700.

Just remember every question you might have about that gun or problem, has already been answered on this forum. You just might have to do a little looking.

I just Installed the new Breach Block / Pellet tray from MonsterMaxx on This little add on is a must have mod nicely finished wit excellent fit and finish. Now loading pellets into the breach is a simple process without the fumbling around trying to line up the pellet with my fat fingers and poor eye sight

Is this like what JSAR sells? I google it and didn't find anything. Do you have a link?

My PP700 was shipped on the 23 from Krall. Just got a notice from UPS that it will be on doorstep tomorrow. WOW! Two days shipping. Why can't USPS be that quick.

I would suggest shooting at least a 1/2 tin to a full tin of pellets through it. Let everything settle in. Then you can chrono it, get a baseline and go a-modding. I haven’t done a thing to my .22 and it shoots nicely indeed.

Yes! I have 6 tins of pellets with some different weights here to try out.

Seconding Luis’s recommendations. Give it an opportunity to break in. If it doesn’t act right after 500 pellets, then it’s time to go in.

The only things I would do is give the barrel an initial cleaning and if you have a chronograph, go ahead and adjust the hammer spring tension (turn the nut clockwise until the velocity no longer increases, then dial it back so the velocity is about 95% - 97% of the max). That will help prevent wasting air and helps keep the velocity stable.

My new toy will be here today. Yesterday I ordered a LCD and adapter off of Rocker1. Let the fun begin.

Backyard Shootr · « **Reply #1513 on:** April 25, 2019, 02:41:20 PM »

It's here! I'm amazed that it was shipped went thru customs and delivered to me in two days. Mine is branded Artemis. You don't realize how long it is until you get it in your hand. She's a black beauty for sure. Looking forward to pushing some pellets thru it.

Couple of things I noticed right off. Barrel shroud very loose. Checked the muzzle fitting on the end of the barrel very loose. I can spin it off with my fingers. The other thing I noticed no safety? My $30 P17 has safety. I will completely go thru this before shooting it to make sure it is safe. Must of been built on a Monday or Friday.

Locking the barrel from rotating with a grub screw will let you skip a lot of grief...

I can see why they do it. Not sure why the factory doesn't.

I was hoping not to have to tear it apart.

I put a shim between the tension nut, and the shroud. I can tighten it, without over tightening.

Safety is open the breech... When ready to fire close it. I got plenty of guns without mechanical safeties.

I'm going to have to dust of my tool box for this one.
