Would prefer a .22 but am not stuck on that. Any tips to finding one are also welcome.

We have only shot Crosman pointed pellets out of it and it's very accurate at 25 yards. That's as far as we shot it so far.   Posted: Sun Aug 26, 2012 6:16 pm garththomas Veteran Member Joined: 12 Jan 2012 Posts: 165 Location: Ontario, Canada QB57s are a crap shoot as to what condition they come in, I have 2 and they both came in different internal condition. One was clean and shiny and the other was full of goop, however they both exceed their stated velocity after a good clean, polish and lube. I get 2" groups at 40yds with both the .177 and the .22 although I have heard of people having better luck. I like them but I had to do a bit of extra work to get the .22 accurate, I found it took a while to learn how to shoot them consistently. Check out the gallery for "my QB57 mod".I have put 6000 pellets through the .22 and 2500 through the .177 and no mechanical failures even after multiple accidental dry fires. I believe they are good guns. There are a lot of reviews on the net and I probably read them all so I was prepared for anything and I've never regretted getting one. _________________ QB57 Backyard Sweeper   Posted: Mon Aug 27, 2012 4:31 am DaveR Member Joined: 12 Aug 2011 Posts: 13 Location: Maine Very helpful, thank you guys. _________________ Colt 1911 A1 .177 Beeman Elite X2 Dual Cal .22 & .177 Benjamin 397 .177 Crosman T4 .177 w/laser Crosman 357 8"(6" + 4" barrels as well) .177 Crosman 1377 w/Tech Force Red Dot   Posted: Sun Nov 18, 2012 8:05 am GrizzlyMan Member Joined: 12 Jan 2011 Posts: 80 This is not a review request sub-forum.

Pretty sure it's up to the site admin/moderators to clear that type of stuff up (which, btw, they didn't seem to have a problem with) Not to mention that you are almost 3 months late with your (irrelevant) reply...
