This gun is AMAZING!! Couldn't have asked for a better product. The bolt is just right, not to hard, not to easy, and I love shooting this gun.

The bipod tends to come loose, and you have to retighten it.

If you are looking for a good sniper and want to be that one on the battlefield who gets everyone else out, this is your gun!

Heavy duty feeling, acceptable FPS, decent accuracy, and ease of upgrading.

Include the upgraded spring.

This rifle rocks! My son hit me from over 150FT and the BB still had enough zing to create a nice welt!

Smooth action, pretty good trigger, shoots very hard with spring upgrade. With upgrade ,20s not so accurate. I use .28s & .30s. These are good out to 150 ft for a head size target. They slow down the fps but make up for it with more range and accuracy

Not really anything.

Make sure you use VERY high quality BBs. I use Mad Ball .30s and TSD .28s.

Wow, this gun is beast! I just bought this gun and I am very impressed with it. I really love the cheek pad, the thumbhole, and the false trigger.

The only thing I would change is the way you have to load the magazine. It is a little percurios, but you get the hang of it after a while. The accuracy is great most of the time, but sometimesthe shots are a little off. This is rare though.

If you are an avid sniper (like me) and you need a gun that can make hits 150ft+, this is the gun for you. I don't use the scope because I like no-scoping, but I would recommend ther scope if you are skilled with it.

It has a very solid feel. The Bipod is very sturdy, I recomend this if you are an expirenced sniper. We have 2 snipers on my team and I'm one of them. Its nice to stay away from danger. But in case I run out of ammo I always have my sidearm P226 pistol.

I wish it came with a scope. it doesn't come with the recomended size bbs but 20 gs seem to work just fine.

Only get this if you are in a place with lots of space. You don't want the bb coming back and hitting you.

Just got this rifle... has a very solid feel. Shoots hard, is very accurate. My 9 yr old was hitting plastic army men at 25 feet after I sighted in my scope! 20g bb's seem to work just fine. Haven't had it in "the field" yet but anticipate no problems with the 20's over a long distance.

Manuel is a bit confusing at first.

If you use a full face mask you will need to use high scope mounts and probably take off the adjustable cheek piece. I did this and it gave me a perfect cheek weld with my full mask on!

this gun is the best gun that i have owned so far... by a long shot... i have always been the sniper on my teem and this would be my gun of choice it is very accurate from great distances... when my brother got an h&k gun that shot 400 with .2 it upped the level that we were laying at.... my old sniper the super nine pro (which is still a great gun for the price) wasn't not up for the task of beating my brother... so i got the sniper set the scope and started dominating... it is so powerfull that nobody wants to come closer then 30 feet in a battle... the best thing that happened with this gun was when i was up in a tree about ten feet off the ground and shot my brother in the chest from 200 feet... whenever i fight my friends ill shoot one of them or come close to one o them and i will star hearing them yelling to fall back... and even when they fall back i can still nail them because of the scope... the scope is one of the best things that this gun comes with... if you are gona buy this gun but it from hear because it comes with a scope... also this gun is silent... like not just quiet but silent.... i was in a battle and i shot some one from fifty feet away while they were running toward me and they stoped and hid behind a tree facing the wrong direction that left me with on open shot because they thought they got shot from down hill when i was to the right of where they were facing two seconds to aim and you CAN"T miss at 50 feet unless you are he most horrable shot in the world... well enough with the stories... this gun us one of the best snipers at this level if not the best... if you play in the woods get it in the green color because it is hared yo see in the woods... infact everyone only sees the orange tip instead of the gun...

i wish it came with a bipod...

seting the scope is hard bet keep trying and it will be worth it... you want it to be perfect or it will be worthless so dont give up... also like the scope the hop up is harder to set but again it is worth it...

accuracy and power.

every now and then there will be a bb that goes way off from the rest of the group.

I"m writing this review to update my last one. I finally got some .43g bbs. They deffinately are the most accurate you can find. I"m getting about 1-2" groups at 25 yards with a couple 'fliers'(stray shots) I havent adjusted my hop up to compensate to these bbs yet, because I was shooting .28g's in it before, and if you go from shooting a bb weight like that to these .43g aluminum bbs, you're guna have to crank up you hop up alot. That will also increase you accuracy.
