Cost of compressor is 21K including shipping by FedEx IE. FedEx charged me 6,847/- as customs duty claiming that it paid that much on my behalf. But they didn't give me the original customs duty receipt. Only gave me a FedEx invoice. Cost of the compressor is $205 and one extra connecting hose with 1/8" BSP Female adopter is $10. FedEx IE Shipping cost is $ 109. = $ 324.00. Normally the connecting hose that comes with the compressor has a Female Quick Connector. You can tell the manufacturer which connector you want when ordering the compressor. But I ordered the extra connector hose. FedEx delivered the delivered the package to my door.

Hi GNV,
Sir, thanks to your reviews I've booked a Precihole Club Pro, I figured if the regular PCP is so good, the Club Pro model will be a great entry level competition PCP.. It will get delivered sometime in November, and hopefully I will be able to use it in December when I visit home.. though I'm not capable of doing reviews as detailed and factual as yours, will definitely share my experience once I get my hands on the Club Pro.

Thanks again and happy shooting!

Regards,
Maanbir

Dear All,

I went through some videos of hatsan AT44 and BT65. It appears that the Power of the gun can be increased or decreased by adjusting the hammer spring using an allen key. Is it possible to do similar experiment on Precihole PX100.

When you increase the power the number of shots per fill decreases.

GNV Sir, you are absolutely correct. If i use a heavier pellet and wish to push it till 75 yrs or 100 yards i would need more energy. it has to be more than 16 joule (for heavier pallet) for a flatter projectile till the desired range.

Regards,
Mayank

Dear GNV. Pl suggest a PCP pump of a manufacturer of reputation suitable for PX100 Achilles. I am very impressed by your knowledge as well as style of narration.

Dear GNV. In your opinion, which among these rifles has more power - Diana 350 panther / Diana 460 or PX100 Achilles ?

Hill Pump Mark -IV is available from airgunindia.com for 16.5 K.
You can purchase Chinese Clones from aliexpress.com at much lower prices.
