It takes a shit load of shooting to get a pellet barrel broke in. probably 800 -1000 on mine, but once broke in, it's shocking how accurate it is at distance.

I'm not the most knowledgeable guy in firearms... so, you've got a pellet gun that also fires 22's? Didn't know that was even possible, I know Beeman is a high quality pellet gun, but they shoot 22 also?

All advice is appreciated for a relative noob like myself, but what makes it better than Mossberg? everything I've read here and elsewhere so far points to the Moss for ease of carry and maintenance.
Its weird for me, my only real firearm experience is with the M16 in the army, and I can shoot the hell out of it, out of 12 qualifications in 4 years I only failed to hit expert once... but shotguns, pistols etc? I don't really know jack.
Ease of maintenance and reliability are my two main factors.
