The checkering on that Roteks is out of this world imo. Good to see your enjoying it. A 177 at a 100 yards shooting caps is awesome. As for the wind... It rarely stops around here. And loves to switch directions frequently lol.

I forgot to grab the fill probe on the last outing
Had some more pellets to test
but the wind realy started pickup up; by the time I'd have gotten her pumped back up, I'd have had to pack up. So I just packed up and pumped her at home then chronod a bit
Then pumped it again

They are back!!One thig i did not like was how the breech / mag area was covered up/inclosed that seemed to make any single shot loading a pain to near imposable..lol
So i looked to see if one of them swing out single shot trays were available

Honestly I had completely forgotten about it (again?) … but your inquiry finally lit the match and inspired me to do some reorganizing in the hobby room his evening , and sure enough I found it! Brand new in mint condition, unopened and unfired… I do like the way it looks

I like those good shooting days.Took me a bit. First mag didn't like the wind...so I waited. Lucky 13 shot popped her, not dead center, a touch low and left but I saw it zing off the twig I shoved in the ground for it to hang on and about knocked my entire table over jumping out of it amd yelling out loud in excitement

Yep, Its been crazy wind lately. I do have a PCP that is doing nickel size at 72 yards. I haven't had an opportunity to stretch out further yet, but it is pellets, so they won't stabilize forever. I measured 1 inch drift with an unknown crosswind 44.75 gr .30 cal JSB's
