    Introduction

    My wife gave me this rifle for Father’s Day. It's the best present I’ve ever received. I’m 63 years old and have been shooting air rifles since I was old enough to pick one up. This rifle is the finest I’ve ever owned and I love it so when I started looking for a few answers online,you forum popped*up and it was very interesting so I know I can add and share my experience.

    Welcome to the forum Jerrycare2.
    Yes we are intrigued by this new amazing rifle Would it be a .22 rimfire by any chance. Seems like going from air rifles to a large centre fire might be a big step

    Welcome aboard
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
