How accurate is the Karma SLS airgun at 100 yards?

At 100 yards, the Karma SLS demonstrated impressive accuracy, achieving an inch-wide group in side-lever mode and a very tight group in semi-auto mode, comparable to many semi-auto rimfire firearms.

What is the reviewer's opinion on the Karma SLS trigger?

The reviewer found the trigger to be stiff and lacking external adjustability without complete disassembly. This is noted as a common characteristic for many semi-auto airguns.
