Hey Sagar ,

Actually I liked the older Front Site without muzzle barrel better looking
I am talking to Anirudh and hes checking if he can get Natural or Walnut model for me as he currently only have rosewood and British Walnut ...

he mentioned the older stalk colors are different that the new ones ... which color you have btw ? can you send both models pics please

Cheers

HI PRAVIN , CURRENTLY I AM USING BOTH MODELS OF ARTEMIS .IN NEW MODEL FRONT SIGHT IS MOUNTED OF MUZZLE .THIS MODEL IS ALSO VERY ACCURATE .GO FOR IT

Added in 2 minutes 40 seconds:
ONE MORE DIFFERENCE IN NEW ARTEMIS COCKING LEVER IS TWO PIECE IN OLD MODEL IT IS SINGLE PIECE.

Thanks Sagar ,

What is the advantage or disadvantage of single or 2 peice cocking lever ?

Am in to discussion with Anirudha and he has not yet confirmed me the bank details -- The natural or walnut is not available wit him now so it will be made to order

Cheers

go for british walnut colour i have genex in british walnut

[dalvipravin]

Hi Sagar ,

British walnut and rosewood are too dark for my taste ... I had confirmed the order for Natural preferred or Simple walnut at Anirudh yesterday !!

So it will be 15 days time she will be arriving at my door hopefully. I also asked him not to muzzle the barrel but send me the older version front sight ... just for the aesthetics !!

Excited .... been reading and watching videos multiple times

Cheers

hi pravin , very nice rifle from whome you ordered g smith pellets please tell me.

[dalvipravin]

I ordered from kovibazar and they same today only .... Took just 4 days via FedEx . The packing was really good .
I wish they had in tin rather than plastic round boxes but that's ok

Check the pics of actually pellets .. I found them well shaped and uniform ...looks good value for money but will test then for accuracy once I get the gun

Cheers

Congratulations!

hi pravin , i know quality of g smith pellets is very good because i used their ameture flat head & high impact but online their prices are double so buy directly from gsmith in quantity like 50 tin mixed variety of pellets you will get at 40% less price.

[dalvipravin]

Hey Sagar thanks for the information .. how can I buy these pellets directly ? Am based in Mumbai

Cheers

Finally ... Got the rifle ... It was well packed and delivered
I had to assemble it with 3 screws tightened till my hand told me they are tight enough

Must say all the praise on this rifle in terms of asthetics are true.. the wood is great , checkering us perfect and looks in good finish ..I feel looks wise she's the best one in wooden stalks

Started shooting with all the pellets I have ... indian marksman ones were going inside the breach and the ones I got with rifle are same pointed but United shots ..

Hits HARD .. the trigger is very stiff and will tune it later after 500 shots . I tried all pellets today and am kind of disappointed that she only takes the marksman and United shots properly and JSB and RWS goes with a firm push which I feel is deforming the head while it goes inside

Rest I had all H&N s which failed totally going in the breach

I believe this is new model which has the updated breach ?? as I can see the 2 peice cocking arm .. pics attached is visible but am no expert

Bit sad today on the pellets as I bought her for long range and for that I only have JSB and RWS that too am not sure if are deforming ...

I have read precipell RH Are good on here too so will try them as well .. so my Diana 460 doesn't have to worry on sharing her meal any more I guess

You need to adjust the trigger screw to make it light.it is at the cap of the receiver. Turn clockwise to lighten it.but don't adjust very light.it will make it autofire

[dalvipravin]

Hi vsraja ,

Thanks .. I am thinking of doing that tomorrow , as of now 70 odd shots through her and bit of smoothness I can feel

Will not go for accuracy as of now but she looks to be accurate .

I. More worried about the best and accurate Pelle in this rifle which I can hit spot on at 60 yards

And .. yes ... She's beautiful I wish we could get Matt finish like imported rifles I mean without the lacker coat but then our weather demands it ..and am happy I got the natural world .. worth waiting for that !! Anirudh is really a genuine chap to work with !!

Cheers

Issue :---- trigger adjusting screw doesn't rotate more than 45 to 80 degrees

On left it goes till 10 o clock and on right it turns till 2 o clock ...... And not beyond in any direction .

And I didn't notice any betterment in trigger while I rotate it clock wise at 2 o clock ...

I believe some thing not right here .... Can anybody advise ?

PS: it takes too long to approve any posts here but being patient

This Post Seems to went through instantly

Ok I gave a call to Anirudh and also sent him the video on wtsap showing the rotation limitation of the Trigger adjusting screw !!

I noticed that the screw loses its center as well as I rotate it clockwise .. I mean the line Notch on the top of the screw goes on left side of the circle hole in the back cap ... not sure whats happening
