    Why don't you stop by the introduction section and tell us a bit about yourself - it might lend credibility to your Youtube vid (may not - I haven't watched it yet, but will do so right now).

    OK - I had to stop at 1:38 of your vid.

    Ruger is pronounced rooger.

    You do not pump a break barrel pellet rifle, you compress a spring.

    Please take a look at the many discussions we've had on pellet rifles - you might find them interesting.

    Had to pause again.

    Pellet rifles are made in many, many calibers.

    How does the rifle get quieter after 100 shots? Is the sound barrier still being broken?

    OK - finished the video.

    Have you personally ever fired a pellet rifle?
    Have you tested all three types of pellets that you showed (panning 2 and recommending 1)?

    Youtube review seem to carry a lot more weight if the reviewer has actually used and field tested the product they are reviewing rather than removing it from the plastic wrapper and kind of fumbling with what they are holding.

    Just my .02.

    Without some test results, and actual field use to back the comments up, I'll have to disagree. And, for the price of these guns, I can get a Mosin for a few bucks more....or, even less

    They did tend to make a bit of a racket in Stalingrad....hey

    However, for me, prefer a 22 LR, the Mosin, and the Mossberg 500 in 12g. But, I live in the Blue Ridges where hearing gunfire is as normal as banjo music....

    If you must use a mosin, in town....only one shot.....the reaction will be ..."what was that?..., gunshot, no can't be.....don't hear anything else, maybe I was hearing things....well don't really want to know anyway....go back to sleep, dear".......

    This guy makes we wonder if it is possible to light a brain-fart!

    At least we can look on the bright side. In an "apocolyptic" world survival will be another form of competition for rescources, and this is the competition.

    I also wonder what list clicking on that link got me placed on. We are talking about some serious white supremicy symbolisim in the background.

    Can we have this removed from the forum please.
