I purchased mine last spring and put the Nikon 3-9 .22 LR scope on it with the BDC reticle in it. The gun is a true tack driver, so smooth and a blast to shoot. I purchased about 8 different boxes of ammo to find which one shot the best group. Keep in mind I bought this gun for shooting gophers and such so I did not buy any of the so called target ammo. The one that shot the nicest group was the CCI Segmented Hollow Points at 1640 fps. The bullet breaks into 3 pce's on impact and does amazing damaged. The picture with the dime is the lead from 10 shots fired one after the other into the same hole fused together and pulled from a tree at about 40 yards.
