ziggy1 0 Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 A friend of mine has got one. Hes had a lot of quarry with it. The gun produces about 9 ft lbs But the cost of the cylinders soon adds up. If i was you i would go for a second pcp. I,ve just sold a faclon fn19 with 3-9-50 scopes for £160 but that seems to be the going rate. But for a fill its about £1 and you will get about 50-60 full power shots then it drops down on pressure. Hope this helps aaron Quote Link to post

ziggy1 0 Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 (edited) I filled mine with a 7 ltr 300 bar diving bottle.It cost £140 with gauge and pipe it fills the gun about 35 times.To get the diving bottle filled it costs £3.00 but they charge you £1.00 to fill the gun at the shops.I now own a theoben rapid 12 mark 1 22cal. I can not fault the gun i have had rabbits drop at 45 to 50 yards. Edited August 9, 2006 by ziggy1 Quote Link to post
