My lovely purchased it for me for my 40th, she broke her own rule. I'm at 3 now. We will NOT talk pistol numbers. :oops:

Leisha said the Alfa does not look so "gunish" :?: , so she was happy when it came out of the box.

A beautiful rifle you got there. With the match sights, the rifle looks just right. This rifle probably makes a fine 10m shooter.

At the price of $575 that you bought the rifle, I think you got a pretty good deal.

One quick question for prhess, did you notice a shift in the point of impact when you shoot it faster? The is what really turned me away from CO2 rifles, but I heard it works fine when they are given enough time to warm up every shot.

I hope you can make a lot of little ragged holes with that rifle on that targets. :D

I have not noticed any shift position. I shot JSB match medium weight (8.02 - yellow tin) with great precision last night best group yet. The rifle takes 10 seconds to reload, 10-15 acquire sight and settle breathing, 20 seconds between shot works well.

Randy, that lady of yours is a real DIAMOND. New grips for Christmas, New rifle for you 40th, she sure spoils you.

Very handsom rifle, mate. Will she be at the shoot on the 25th?

Cheers

DaveD :D

Definitely, it will be there!!!

Adjusted the trigger a bit, getting closer to my FWB 601. Fells better than my tau standard. I do realize that it will not be close to my 601 trigger, but it does have a lot of nice adjustments.

There so little info on that rifle that a google image search on "Alfa Proj rifle" brings these pics on the first page!

I found the same links. The airgunarena review is very interesting. Seems PyramydAir once had it listed but I'm not sure they sold any as there is no review on the old or new website about it.

These shots were 25-50 from the co2. Finding about 60 shots from the 12g co2 at current power settings. The rifle seems to shoot well to the last drop of CO2.

the extreme spread from these 25 shots was 14 FPS. If any one has specific questions please PM me.

Regards
