secretagentmole 1,701 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Well I had to take it out today. The latest addition to Mole Armoury. It needed to be set up, this would involve removing the shims from the Sportsmatch mounts. Zeroing in to 10 then 25 metres. Checking grouping, down to under a 10p at 25 metres. Odd fliers caused by coughing/ Still not quite over the chest infection I had over Christmas and New Year. The wind was low and the mist was rolling in. This means that the grey ghosts were at a slight disadvantage sight wise but not noise wise. I was still sounding like a 30 a day man. Been over 4 years now since I gave up smoking. Would not have guessed it listening to me trying to be stealthy sneak, hack, cough, sneeze, choke. But finally perseverance and sheer determination paid off. The Hatsan Galatian is a gun that performs, albeit with a very percussive hammer. It makes more noise at the hammer than the barrel! It has been power checked and is turning out 10.76 ft lb. This is expected to rise slightly as it beds in. Currently running on Crosman Premier Ultra Magnums for best grouping and power combination. Ladies and Gentleman, Hattie makes her debut in the field! Must clean the camera lens! 3 Quote Link to post

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted January 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 That is a very nice looking gun good shooting, do you rate the ultra magnums? I do, they work very well in the HW77, the 60S, the Rapid and now the Galatian. They group well and hit hard. That is one fugly gun Moley. Good job it shoots well. It is a gun that looks a lot better in walnut, saying that the Tac stock on it is very comfortable, adjustment for both cheek piece height and stock length. It is a comfy gun to hold. The cocking lever is a nice solid piece of metal and the lever is substantial to grab hold of. Smooth in operation too! Quote Link to post
