Buy a 48 in .22 and Venom kit that. You won't be sorry. >25 has got a

We don't tune the Kodiak/Patriot at all.

Kits walk out at $105. No Warranty on your work. We install for $125
total.

Define much.
I figure a 10.5grainer at the high 800's. That's way better than lights
at 1000. Don't be a speed demon. Use what groups and you'll find little
to group beyond the 950fps mark.

Learn about why speed doesn't impress. Air resistance goes up at the
square of the velocity. Shoot for a projectal going max 850 and you'll
be headed pretty much in the right direction. Velocity means squat.
Retained energy is all.

No.
Rick. I sell steriod streaks that impress at 1/2 the cost of the Hunter.
One with the full treatment including peep fetches about $210. These
will do .177cal is 19 ft. lbs., .20cal is 22 ft. lbs., and .22cal is 26
ft. lbs. when pumped up to 14 times. Factory guns do 9, 11, and 13 ft.
lbs w/ 9 pumps. At 9 pumps steriod streaks go about 25% more energy than
a factory gun. This is A VERY REMARKEABLE RIFLE if I may be so bold. I'm
quite proud of this project that was inspired by the fruitful mind of ld
some months ago. We married all the great ideas of our past with some
very innovative new design concepts. If you like pump pnuematics you
have got to check this gun out.
