Buyer beware at Midway USA.
The 3 tins of Vortex pellets came loose in an oversized bubble shipping envelope. The tins were slightly dented but the pellets were fine.... coulda been much worse.

Trenier's normal pricing. If you call him and tell him you are a GTA member, I think he'll even do better. I didn't take advantage of that.... I may in the future.

Been well documented Midway packs lousy....order at your own risk.

Amazon has the Vortex pellets for $9.00/200 w/free shipping with Prime.....
Will see how they pack them........
Not the most accurate, but fine for breaking in.

avator · « **Reply #148 on:** July 06, 2020, 07:56:34 PM »

Amazon typically tossed them in an oversized box with one air pillow. They are my absolute last resort.

Yes... only good thing is.... they will reship or refund and let you keep them if you call. Like I said... the tins had minor damage but the pellets are fine. I'm not going to complain to them..... this time. I'll just buy the JSB Kings for this gun.

The 700+ and the Vortex pellets I have now should last me awhile.

SteveP-52 · « **Reply #151 on:** July 06, 2020, 08:08:38 PM »

Never bought pellets from him but you might try Joe Brancato and see what he's got in stock if anything. Tried looking on his website and it's an absolute cluster trying to find anything: (714) 907-0067

Almost said Straight Shooters, but after checking their shipping and finding out it's almost $19 (that was for 1 $15.95 tin of pellets), yeah, no.

I got this in the mail today now I just need to install it.

Wayne.... test your safety before you rely on it.
My gun passes the 'bump' test very well and the auto safety engages as it should but, I can fire the gun with the safety on.
I'm not worried about this. I am the only shooter of this gun. I don't leave the gun cocked and loaded. When I cock and load the gun, I shoot the gun.
I've learned my lesson. I point all my guns in a safe direction and pull the triggers before I put them away.

Don't know how everyone else feels about it but, the roller bearing was a $3 mod on a $99 gun.
Right up my alley

....

Mossonarock · « **Reply #156 on:** July 07, 2020, 09:55:55 AM »

Are those triggers even still available?
I want to learn more about this roller bearing mod. Or at least read about it again because, if I have read about it, I forgot all about it.

Tim.... read through this thread, it's all here in text, pics or links.

I understand your logic.
I prefer to think of it as a $154.99 gun which I purchased for $99.00...

As a query, I ask: Had you purchased that $99.00 gun for ...say....$2.50, would the $3.00 bearing fix be too much ?? $:-\$

avator · « **Reply #159 on:** July 07, 2020, 11:07:08 AM »

LOL..... probably not. I have invested in a few of the CDT triggers for low to mid cost guns. I have one in the Urban and one in the chopped Silent Cat. However, I didn't know about the RC roller bearing mod at that time and I'm not so sure I wouldn't have gone that route with those guns.
The roller bearing made the chopped Hatsan Stiker 1000s dangerous so, it's not a sure fire mod.... pardon the pun.
