I think it can do well especially being offered in .177, .22 and .25 from the factory instead of only .22 for the Notos.

The new stock of Blitz just came in they are 716 . They do have free shipping sometimes, but that just went by. They have different warehouse's , if you buy different things from different
Warehouse's it's 5 shipping cost from each warehouse. No problems past
15 years they are fairly new to airguns though , but great prices.

Hmmm.... I've wanted a compact light .177, for easy tuning to 12ish FPE. I wonder how much this weighs?

I love the form factor of it as well and I will likely get one also. I just wish they had made some minor changes. It is an 80cc tube. Their website claims it can shoot up to 830 fps with 18.13g, but also states it will get 26 shots per fill at 665 fps. So it sounds like if you want to shoot anywhere near 800 fps the shot count will be very low. Only speculation but I’m sure the tube is removable and there will be bottle mods before too long. I wish it was slightly more optimized. I’d love this in 22/25 but the shot count and speed is just scratching the surface of ideal.

I’m more interested in the trigger than anything else. My biggest dislike of the notos is it’s trigger!

Really? I took mine out and threaded it back in and found a sweet spot where it’s very light (I don’t have a gauge) and is GREAT. Safety still works and it still functions perfectly. Maybe I got lucky. It’s a very specific spot I noticed. If I go 1/2 turn in either direction it totally changes it and makes it way worse.

I tried with mine, but I couldn’t find a sweet spot. The adjuster screw would also work its way out over time. I’m sure I could have loctited it, but I didn’t want to mess it up, and completely ruin the trigger.
I am a trigger snob also, so it may be ok for some, and just not ok for me. Lol

I suppose the plenum size is the size it is due to being able to handle .25
I sort of wished that the plenum was smaller for .22 or at least .177 so they could have a bigger reservoir.
Aside for being locked to .177 by my masters, shot count + magazine size would be some of the things that would never the less make .177 interesting to me, even if my masters allowed me to have something bigger.
The regulator is genius, IMO all pipe reservoir guns should have it that way,,,,, i hope AV have patented it before FX swoop in.

Yeah I put a little smidge of blue locktite on it. Shouldn’t hurt anything. I’m definitely not a trigger snob. I’ve got AR15s with milspec triggers so if you can shoot that it all feels like butter.

I've sent dozens of my converted Notos down to Florida for Iguana removal, they wanted 850-875fps with 18.1gr pellets and a minimum of 100 shots per fill.
.36l bottle, Cricket drop-block, plenum, ported to 4.5mm and removal of the moderator housing, threaded barrel and the 9" Silent Kill moderator (new).
It dropps Iguanas.....

It's in development, only one has been sent off for evaluation.
I used to send the Long John but since it went out of production and I haven't been able to secure the rights, I had to ask for design help and I found a good candidate.
I'm printing more of them but I need to follow the rules etc here.
I'll post one on my Notos hopefully this weekend but I need to get outdoor numbers i.e. when it's not -20°!
