it does suck when you are hunting fast game, like barn rats. running back the the truck to pump sucks. i end up hunting a big circle around the pump, whereas the .22 rimfire guys get to go out much further. turkey hunting where you hopefully need 1 or two shots..it's perfect!
i dont remember the pump being that cheap tho. $250? i wish the hose was just a bit longer.

Got it, appreciate the explanation. Doesn't sounds like it's too bad, especially considering the price for a good compressor.
