This thing is a MONSTER!!! It's a beast to cock but it is very accurate. It took me about 7 shots to zero it in. I don't usually shoot birds but I needed to bleed this thing before I send it back, I have an RMA request in with Airgundepot right now. This gun shoots consistant tight groups at 25yards and i've only put about 30 pellets through it so far. If I was keeping it I know it would only get better. Anyways I shot these 2 birds at about 15yards. It took off the whole left side of the sparrows face  .

Damn! You really put the smackdown on them.Not much of a head left on that one.I take it you got the .22 version of the Falcon Hunter?I bet your getting over 900fps?Crazy power for a springer!I've thought about getting one myself.The price is very reasonable on these.

And you certainly need 900+ fps in a .22 cal to down a sparrow.  |

| I guess it just wasnt meant to be. The wife found out that I had used the Falcon Hunter and flipper her wig. So back into the box it goes until airgundepot gets back to me with this RMA number so I can send it back. |
