Received this about a week ago . Hope to get some glass on it soon and give it a try . Dan sent me 3 valves with the rifle . A low pressure . a standard , and a extra power valve . He said he tuned it to get 680 FPE with the extra power valve . I had him send the rifle to me with the standard valve installed . Composite stock is not a beauty padget winner but it is light . sturdy . and easy to shoulder . Marvin

Nice rifle Marvin! Hope you shoot something big with it
What do you plan on hunting with it?
I think I 'm next in line for a big bore rifle, now that airgun hunting is all legal in NY state. The only problem I have is that we are only allowed to hunt small game, and I can take most or all small game critters including coyote with my .25's. It would be nice to know I can make a body shot though, if I had a big bore. With the small bores I am limited to head shots on the dogs (and fox, raccoon, etc.).
