I have ordered the Umarex Octane .22. Probably should have asked here first. I will let you know. I got fired up over the velocity and the $180.00 price
 
My Octane .22 arrived today. Seems to be accurate (shooting into 1" at 50yds) trigger is heavier than I would like but is manageable. I think it is going to work fine for my purposes.
 
1" groups are exceptional. What pellets are you using? How is the 3-9 scope? was it sighted in?

I recommend you remove, clean/degrease the scope and rings and re-attach it. Scopes can and will move, especially in a high-powered gas springer
 
I had to mount the scope. I did degrease the rings before mounting. Crossman Premier Hollowpoints are the pellets I am using. I wonder about the quality of the scope. It is made in China, but I have good luck and bad luck with their optics. We will see.
 
Good to hear. I'm waiting on an Octane, but PA is out of stock, so it won't be till another 2 weeks or so I'm guessing.
