I know it's not considered a precision air rifle ,but I thought I'd mention it here anyway , field supply has the umarex gauntlet 2 in 22 cal on sale for 291 dollhairs ,and even though I already have one of the original ones I bought one just to see how much they've improved, I was impressed they changed the stock for the better ,I think and added a barrel stabilizer and a larger bottle and it's 45k rated with the reg set at 1900psi , I cleaned the barrel and mounted a cheap viridian scope that I had laying around and after alot of cranking on the scope got it Dailey in with Crossman 14gr hp pellets ,at 35yrds they were touching so I'm satisfied with that for a 400.00 PCP air gun , like I really needed another one , my garmin xero battery was dead so no speed was cked. But the box said 1120fps with 16gr alloy pellets I doubt that I was getting more than 920fps just from the sound but I'll ck later .

Looks like umarex was pretty close on the specs
That didn't turn out very clear ,,,, 7 shots, average 1065fps, std dev 5.1, 14.3 grn Crossman premium hp not bad for a cheap pcp.and I kinda like the looks , the only high end pcp I own is a AAA 357 slayer and I can't shoot it in the backyard so it doesn't get much use ,so the 25's and 22's get more daily use ,one of these days I'll spring for a fx or maybe another AAA in 22 .
