	Hi, I am new to the forum. I have a Sharp Innova in good condition except for some air leakage, so the airgun would need new seals. What is a good source for a seal kit, plus the necessary information on procedure and lubrication requirements etc?

	😂😂😂 I can just picture the look on a rabbits face when a green pellet bounces off the side of its head… 😂😂😂
	Walk quietly, but carry a big stick.

	I had good results with the green H&N pellets in my .22 Marauder pistol at moderate distances. Nice flat trajectory being light too. They do bounce off things though.

	Yeah I agree! I'll try a few more of the H&N sampler pack today hopefully to get some softer / heavier options...

	Lots of people moan about the “green” pellets, but I always say “shoot what ever is most accurate in ur rifle, regardless is shape weight or price. 10mm groups at 20m… sounds like you’ve got a winner there 👍🏻

	That looks sweet. Grouping sounds tight with the alloy pellets. You'll have to get the old girl out for a hunt. I leave a pump or 2 in my pumper. Keeps the pump handel coming open and keeps valve seated with a small amount if air pressure as well as spring. Great to see its up and running. Hope to hear how it preforms in the field soon.

	Finally got to shoot the gun. Zeroed it with H&N field target pellets, unfortunately the gun doesn't like these pellets they were horribly inaccurate. As in 1.5 inch groups at 20m. Wonder if it's because they are so short? Dunno. So I switched to H&N Barracuda Green... These were on the money with pellets making 10mm groups at 20m! Very happy wit that.

	It sure is! A quick test fire at 6 pumps puts a pellet clean through 1/2" marine ply.... no idea of the fpe or fps but that seems pretty decent, I used to hunt at 12 pumps...
