Very nice! We call that 'Wood Burning' over here, but I guess that's too vague of a term. Lol

*off topic* is that a cartridge or a spring action air gun?

Underlever spring. Nice air rifle to use

When you hunt, do you move around with one in the chamber or load when you find something?

Was always told by someone with no knowledge of guns that it was bad for the gun....

I always hunt with a pellet loaded and the safety catch on, or I will miss things as I try to load. Never store a gun thats loaded. Its not only dangerous, but keeping the spring compressed will weaken the power of the spring.

Yep always loaded with safety on when stalking, I found that the brass safety catch is much quieter to release than the standard factory one which gives off quite a "CLICK" ruining that 20 minute stalk.

Is that an AccuCover (http://www.accucover.com/) you have on the scope there?
