It'll be interesting to see what differences you get after a clean.

Nope left it just as is haha

Some old Daisy pellets

I'll do a shot string using them with the gun uncleaned, then do a clean and another shot group test them so from there with pellet picking and tuning

Didn't you clean all oils and shipping crap off first?
The breach seal don't look that great on mine either.
What pellets were you using.

A few quick shots before I left for work, clouds of smoke out of the barrel each time I shot, was hitting a post at 15m but no time to set up a proper target.

Trigger pull was very heavy on first couple of shots then started coming a little more predictable

Breech looks um like it needs a tidy up....

Haha sorry Pete, I have great memories of a Series 1, One of my brother's friend had one many years ago and I used to bounce around in the back, almost had to wear helmets

Yes the Ghillie Green is probably the best thing that's it got going for it. I'll do some shots in the morning and report back.

Good luck all.


Mark, have you ordered one through Dave or elected to buy direct?  Looks like they're selling out fairly quickly.

Well I have mine.... Haven't fired it but did half cock it, made my hair stand on end...! Sounded like a series 1 land rover going up a shingle road! So I stopped and put it down! Really regretting my life choices right now but it can only get better from here hahaha.
