the master shot pellets may be light for this powerhouse. try the heavier 10 grn pellets. in 177 the 350 is a handfull.
one word of advice.....new dianas come dry with no lube. you may need to lightly lube the gun. this will help remove the harshness and reduce torque. if you have the diana lube, follow the instructions; its easy to apply. if you are removing the stock to apply the lube to the spring.....watch the pins on the trigger. there will be three pins on the TO6 trigger and they tend to slip out if one is not carefull.
the TO6 trigger is great....close to the rekord triggers on hw rifles. the factory setting on the trigger are good enough. do not try adjusting the two stage trigger, unless you are good with tuning.
congrats thats one great gun...enjoy and shoot safe.

Hi Friends,
Regret the delay in posting my reply, I was away for a few days, so here I am back... first and foremost I am thankful for all the kind messages posted in response to my post. The advice given by "mercury" is invaluable will certainly ensure that the gun is kept properly lubricated.
There are quite a few anxious mail on how did I manage to import it from Dubai..Well i traveled by our National Carrier, no questions asked, I was carrying the gun in three parts , after having got it dismantled @dubai. Declared the weapon on reaching Hyderabad, since I am a member of a State Rifle Association, had to convince them on the Caliber/Rule which says such imports are legal, they did charge a nominal duty which I readily paid and took a receipt, so thats it. My advice is please do declare the weapon if you are carrying in your baggage as it builds trust and you can face the customs confidently. It has been a cherished child hood dream to own a diana , finally this dream has been met, 350 magnum is the best among st the break barrel models, in terms of power as well as looks.
Seeking advice from experts in this forum on how to maintain the weapon such that it remains in mint condition for long long years.....
Regards.
