I picked the gun up on Friday from a 3rd party warehouse, I opened it at the shop and lost the pellets that were sent with it. There was a small amount of air in the gun so when I got home I sent 20 pellets of 20 gr through it. Thinking that the gauge read 600 psi but in reality 60 bar I was amazed to see a velocity of 653 fps still good velocity for 60 bar (850 Psi). I mounted a cheap scope on it and put it away. Sunday when I took it out most of the air was gone as the valve was leaking. I emailed Raman expecting a call back on Monday but he responded pronto. He suggested a quick fill with a tank and at some point the pressure would seal the valve. The 20 pellets that I had sent through it, was enough pressure drop to allow leakage. I was only able to get the gun to 800 psi before the tank equalized. I began pumping by hand and shortly after the valve sealed. I continued to pump and after 450 pumps I had the gun to 2000 psi. This Morning the pressure was unchanged so I sent 2 pellets across the chrony 997 fps at 2000 psi 20 gr. The Synthetic stock does has a soft feel to it but not as soft as the new Umarex. The safety is a little hard to push because the stock is too thick just back of the leaver.. The 2 tanks add up to about 900 cc so hand pumping will not be done again. Max gun pressure is 3625 psi. Even though the gun is heaver than my mega marine the weight is closer to your shoulder giving a lighter feel. Once I have my new compressor and good selection of pellets I will take it to a Range and update you all.

Yes! The carbon fiber finish looks very good and uniform, patterns aligned very well... I love that too!

I like carbon fiber style, but I always headache about the alignment of the patterns.... Just too picky and OCD... :(

Not picky at all if you don't have OCD. Just put it together and however it ends up is the way it is. :D
