He tells me he's repaired them all, they were missing the entry taper apparently.  I'm keen to buy another as long as he can assure me the pellets will be an easy finger push in Smile

I don't know what Ron did and I hadn't thought of the possibility before I sent it back.  I might email him and ask.

Out of interest, did you, or Ron try pushing the pellet in from muzzle back to breech to see if it was in fact backwards.

Nope, hence my warning re the brand, especially if importing personally which would be very tempting based on the reviews.  I'm not sure what Ron is going to do with his stock of the Vertek, but for 80-90% of pellets I had to force them in with a probe which wrecked the heads as you can see in the pic.

Ron took it back and was going to send me a replacement but when he checked them they were all the same unfortunately.  My only conclusion was that the barrels were choked and had been installed the wrong way around, but I don't know enough about air rifles to know whether this is possible or not.

A shame as it was quite light and very nice to handle.

Oh bummer, did you manage to fix it? Or gathering dust?

A very nice looking piece of kit indeed.  However, if anyone is thinking of importing one be aware that the Norica Vertek S I recently purchased from Youngs (and it was a lovely gun) had an undersized bore - as did all the other units that Ron had in stock.  It would be gutting to import one of these no-recoil guns and find it has a similar fault.

Very impressive consistency from a break barrel 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
