No mate its as smooth as ,and it has a little bit of a kick when fired but my grandson is only 8yrs old and was shooting a 22 prosport that marksman let him use at the range and he hit every thing he aimed at atvbmac

U sure you took enough photos last night mac?! You after a job as a professional photographer or sumat?! lol

 

should be a good little learning rifle before he gets the ultra. better to learn with a recoiler first, sounds a good shot.. might get better than you oneday

Good luck to the lad..

What exactly have you done with it then?

 

Have you sanded and re finished the stock? What did you use?

 

Have you done anything to the exterior metalwork?

 

What you done inside the rifle?

Hi skot rubed the stock down with sand paper by hand then used a damp cloth to get rid of sanding dust let it dry then rubbed tru oil gun stock finish on to it about four or five coats and left it to dry and then rubbed the metal work down with tin foil at first and then wet and dry corse paper to get rid of eny pitting then rubbed it all down with a cloth to get rid of the dust put a coat of primer on then left it for a bit then three coats of auto spray paint then once dry i put it all back to gether going to crono it to day then start on the internals atvbmac

[Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701]

Cool. always interested in reading about refurbs and stuff like that

[bigmac 97kt 13,842]

Chronoed it to day and its only putting out 3 and a half fp so a new ox or titan main spring on its way to boost it up but may have to cut the spring to keep it under 12 for the kid atvbmac ps ox or titan what do you think is best spring thanks

[Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701]

Probably the titan.... people on here seem to have a massive hatred for the poor old ox spring.. lol

Got a titan today but its a tight fit and will need cutting down just hope it will work when i do get it to fit as it is just a little bit to thick atvb mac

[Marksman 934]

Don't cut it mate, you're best off heating it up till red then compressing it. Let it cool naturally

If its too thick you might have the wrong sized spring. It might get cool bound when compressed in the piston
