    Nice clean build.

    A gear motor would be an improvement over air cylinders IMO. There was a guy (German IIRC) who did one and the video of it was impressive. But he had about $3000 into it. I...

    8.2 gr for 1031 fps.

    Do not get hung up on a particular powder especially for light pistol loads. It isn't rocket surgery. I bought 30 lbs of powder I had never used when I found it on sale for $15/lb delivered. ...

    73, rediscovered air guns about three years ago. I decided PCP guns were my best choice. Extreme accuracy, and no cocking effort. I now have four.

    No regrets.
