[GunnerAl]

[Dockey 454]

Supposedly, one of the best target pistols you can buy for less than $550-600. Single pump Pneumatic, match trigger, skinny post open sights and ridiculous barrel. Go to youtube and AGR 46m and its a review from Paul Cappelo. They say you cant out shoot that pistol unless your olympic caliber at 10M.

Now you have me actually laughing... I mean it, I am actually laughing as I type this. I never thought about the being the 'Host of the Most'... That's not fair - hahahahaha...

By the way, that is a very nice looking piece of air gunnery...

[Nikoman]

You guys are making me jealous, with the record setting posts and laughs, I had to join in.
I don't have any Russian air guns yet but my wife is Russian so I get to post here by default.
I almost bought an Izzy at the Fresno AG Expo and I'm still regretting that one.
I should've bought it! D'oh!

[GunnerAl]

It just seems to be a fun place to hang out... Russian wife huh.. Lucky so and so...

Niko, next time you get a chance to get one grab it. When I bought this one I was looking at guns that were double the price. Glad I didn't spend the money, never in this lifetime will I be able to outshoot this gun.

Oh believe me, Tom!
I plan on snagging one next time. It's one of those regrets, I was too caught up in the moment of all the eye candy - so many airguns to look at in so little time.

My wife is definitely a keeper, not only is she really tall and beautiful - SHE CAN SHOOT!
She's also gone duck hunting with me in some of the worst weather and she always comes back with waterfowl

[Dockey 454]

Niko, does she have a sister that owns a boat. Ha Ha

Tom, what pellets are you using?  I'm not having much luck with mine right now.  Not that I've got that much to choose from down here.  Right now mostly Gamo Match which leave a lot to be desired.  Anyway, even from a rest I'm not getting 10 ring accuracy out of it, more like 8 ring or so.  I'm SUSPECTING I need to reseal it as I checked velocity with the Chrony app on my cell phone and it was mid 300's if I remember right.  My guess is that I need to reseal it to get the velocity up to where it should be.

How do you like your stock? I've read a lot about them being too big, but with larger than average hands I find it a bit small. Wish there was someone around who knew their way around an Olympic air pistol stock to give me tips on fitting it properly.

[Dockey 454]

Paul I'm using H&N final match pistol 4.50 head size, they shoot the best. The RWS R10's are a very close second. Your guns velocity is a little slow. How many rounds have been put thru it? Look in the picks thread in this section, you will see my post with chrony numbers on my 46M. These numbers are after about 4k rounds thru it. Hope this helps a little.

Thanks, Tom.  I'm not sure how many pellets through this one.  Got it from a friend as a gift, he'd shot it then left it in the safe.  I've run tins of pellets through it myself.  I'm pretty sure that the original seals need replaced and that when I do so the velocity will pick up and the accuracy should too.
