PA says 1100 fps on the newest version of the 397!! Anyone get one of these yet? I'm guessing this is velocity using non lead pellets, but still.......

Ad states "10 pumps then air starts bleeding out", no mention of what pellet they are claiming will go 1100fps.  Balsa wood maybe ?  :)

Balsa wood!! 😀
Sounds about right, but would be pretty good if they could hit 850 with lead. Someone will review sooner or later I hope.

Quick look at one video shows 736 fps average using 8.4 grain pellets.
Sounds about right.

you think by now they would have altered their tooling and jig so that the breech would have dovetails milled in like the as392 did
