Hatsan Nova QE Air Rifle

I purchased the Hatsan Nova in .22 cal, I read that it was being replaced buy the Neutron Star but I wanted a Nova after reading all the reviews, It is a little heavy but I don't mind that, This thing is awesome. PA was great I ordered it on a Sunday and had it by Wednesday afternoon a good barrel cleaning which was not very dirty I was shooting at 12 yards to get things sighted in and WOW the JSB Exact Jumbo Diabolo 15.89 Gr. were out standing so were the FXHybrid slugs in .22 Gr. hole in hole 10 shots truly amazing for a gun in this price range,Like my Hatsan Flash QE the bolt was i little tight at first but after 100 rounds it got very nice and smooth, I have a UTG 4x16x44 swat 30mm swat scope and UTG rings and it works well, I adjusted the trigger down to 2.12lbs and that is perfect for me, The Nomad2 compressor fills the gun in 6:29 minutes from 100 Bar to 250 bar which is exactly twice the time as my .25 Flash which is 3.30 minutes so by the time you load 4 clips the gun is full

Nothing I bought this gun because it is exactly what i wanted a heavy and accurate bench shooting beast I would not want to change a thing I love it! My gun did not like any pellet under 15.0 Gr., heavier here is better JSB Exact Jumbo Diabolo 18.13Gr. AA Diabolo Field Heavy 18.0 Gr. all shoot well but the true winner is the FX Hybrid Slugs in .22 Cal 22.0 Gr.all i can say is WOW i never thought i could shoot that good Amazing!

Mine came with a 1 bad rotary magazine so I will see if PA will replace it, I thought I received a bad gun or one that was returned but it turned out the rotary magazine was machined wrong and everytime I put a pellet in it it deformed the pellets, after switching to a different rotary magazine bang the gun was dead on target and smooth cocking,I don't think Hatsan is making this model anymore so if you can get your hands on one grab it don't wait! Squirrels you are now on notice!

Power and cheaper than an FX. I got it at a 40% discount so it was a pretty good price.

Reduce the weigh! Geez, I'm a small man and this thing almost weighs as much as me!

Be prepared for some tiring arms/shoulders when you carry this on your hunting trip. Weighs heavily in front of the gun, causing unbalance and a lot of fatigue if you don't have a bipod installed. Unless you are a very strong person, it's very hard to just aim and shoot. You have to rest it on/against something. Very unbalanced weight. I tried to use the sling and just couldn't keep the gun straight up. The barrel end keeps wanting to tilt down and kiss the ground! Buy something lighter, more balance, if you have the extra $$$. My dream airgun I hope to someday buy is an FX Crown Continuum. Light. Full of features. For now, I will keep on dreaming.

shot count, easey repeater action, good adjustable trigger

I would sacrifice a little on the shot count fore a little more power, a good PSI gauge instead of BAR would make it easier to fill to the exact pressure you want
