This was my second Air Arms purchase, and I continue to be impressed by the quality of their products. The fit and finish on this rifle are superb, rivaling high end firearms. I topped it with a Leupold 3-9 Ultralight EFR, and the resulting package is lightweight, well balanced and accurate. The adjustable power feature permits the shooter to tune velocity for various pellet weights and applications. The trigger is highly adjustable, but I found it to be perfect right out of the box. You will not regret purchasing this rifle.

This is by far the best quality PCP out of the eight PCP rifles I have purchased even over guns that are twice as much money.
Things I would have changed:Maybe a little quieter.
What others should know:This gun will shoot just about all pellets well you can go from a jsb 18.13 at full power to a 14.3 grain crosmn by turning the power down a couple clicks.
