Still breaking it in and trying to see which pellets it likes best. So far my best group has been with 18.1 JTS. The picture is an 11 round group at about 60 yards. I love the size of it. It will definitely make a great gun to walk around on the farm with. Unfortunately it looks like the cold is getting ready to set in for awhile. I've got a window picked out to try shooting out of if the wife allows it.

Congratulations! Still the best Sporter PCP ever built in my humble opinion! Enjoy shooting it and I think you found the pellet it prefers!

I've got one just like it, and it's a favorite. With high power and the tactical look running the the market, there are not many classic sporters left, a shame. I cringe every time I hear about someone wanting to take a Revere or an HW100 and wanting to make it a high power 150+ yard rifle. We can't seem to leave well enough alone. Great rifle, enjoy.

The safari is a great looking rifle. If they didn't do such a good job on the walnut I probably would have leaned that way.

My plan is to leave it the way it came. If I find the right pellets and know all my holdovers, it should be a super reliable backyard pesting gun. I just need to resist the urge to tinker!

I had originally ordered a non regulated in .25 , but after advice from several members here I changed it to a regulated .22. AOA had no problem changing it after I contacted them and definitely earned some of my future business.

I got the same advice but already was set up according to AoA and didn’t cancel.
I did successfully add regulator and bottom gauge for much less than the regulated gun.

As far as furniture, that is the best looker IMHO.......The only thing that stopped me from purchasing one is, I'd never leave the house from compulsive drooling and polishing the stock.
Those JTS 18.1 are nice pellets!
Congrats!

Was not being a “wise guy” I thought I was answering your question…
I did not assume anything about you “supposing” anything. I thought I was helping and apologize to you if you felt otherwise…Upvote 0
Congrats again. If you haven't tried it yet, shoot some JSB 15.89gr or the equivalent (FX 16gr., Air Arms 16gr.). They do better than the 18.13gr at 50 yards with my Regal. Others reported better accuracy as well. I would also try the other offerings from JTS 16.08gr. and AEA 15.9gr. That's a nice group at 60 yards with the JTS 18gr though.
