tinbum71 Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I bought a second hand .177 one for the wife yesterday. I've only fired about 30 shots thru it, but its great. The handling and balance are spot on, and it's as accurate as any I've had. (Falcon FN19, BSA Super 10, Gunpower stealth, RWS Scimitar, Career 707 carbine, Air Arms s200. All .22) I have a compact 6x32 px scope on it and it's very well proportioned. I've read that an after market silencer will make it quieter, but I don't see the need yet. I'd recommend it.

the_commoner Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 i have had a couple i love the single shot but i wasn't so keen on the multishot so got rid of it a decent silencer makes a big difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bali Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Yeah me to, a great rifle the multi shot works OK but you have to remember if you have loaded one in the barrel and then de cocked it, the next time you go to take a shot you could end up loading more than one pellet up the barrel. BSA have had rifles back with pellets jammed up the barrel. I've had mine for about 18 months now no problems at all you get about 30ish shots from a full charge I prefer using BSA Storm pellets in .22. Went out last night 8 shots 8 rabbits thats next weeks tea sorted.Go for it you won't be dissapointed All the Best : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSA Shaun Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) NO NO NO get a rapid 7 mk1 in .177 the best there is. Not for Ultra money they are not, and not for vehicle or confined area shooting either. Edited July 8, 2008 by BSA Shaun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
