Well, went over to Chuck's to reload and took the X2 with me. While I was there we gave it a half-azzed checkout due to the weather, it had just stopped snowing when we took it out back to fire it a few times. All Chuck had in the way of .177 pellets were some RWS 9.3 grain supermags(?) so, I loaded one up and aimed for a fencepost and fired. Recoil was very light but, it sounded like I just fired a .22LR! Chuck looked at me and went inside to get the Chrono. Set up the Chrono and five feet from the screens I fired three rounds; 1168fps, 1165fps, 1168fps! This was with heavier than standard pellets! The rifle is rated for 1000fps with standard match pellets,( 7.1 grain), this was great!

Only problem I have is with the scope. It's a BEEMAN 4x32 and it's blurry. No amount of adjustment on the ocular would correct it so, Ordered a BSA 3-9x40AO scope and mounts from Airgun Depot. Not really a big thing, I kinda figured it was a cheapy scope or it wouldn't have come with the rifle. Problem is, there are no open sights on it.

So, gotta wait til I get the scope for any accuracy tests but, I'm expecting good results. The fence post I shot at first was a good 55 yards away and I hit it with the one shot.

So, give me a week or two to get the scope/mounts in and mounted.
