Things I liked:Perfect for the air force rifles. Diameter is small enough to allow you to see the sights. The larger diameter tanks make it difficult to get your cheek down far enough but this one is just right. It also is lighter than the others which balances the gun better. Go for it you won't be sorry. Things I would have changed:Nothing What

Makes them a lot more comfortable to shoot.

Things I liked:Rifle is very accurate, the sights are good but could use a couple of different inserts beside just circles. The stock is beautiful and holds very nice in all positions. The weighted front (co 2 tank and barrell weight) keep the gun from moving at all this helps to overide the trigger pull creep. The trigger pulls nice but creeps

The weighted front (co 2 tank and barrell weight) keep the gun from moving at all this helps to overide the trigger pull creep. The trigger pulls nice but creeps a long way after engagement with the sear. Only the free play is adjustable not the weight of pull or travel. The pull can be lightened but requires some gunsmithing. (don't do it if your not sure how to ) it is quite easy to ruin the internals if you make a mistake. The trigger is nothing you can't live with and shouldn;t ruin the overall rating of this gun. Other than a few minor problems it's a pretty nice little rifle for the aspiring target shooter. The co 2 tank needs a little work on the threading on the gun end it is somewhat difficult to screw in, use a 5/8' box wrench the wrench supplied doesn't do it and will ruin the hex end on the tube.
kw Things I would have changed:A little better trigger adjustment would help. The wrench for th co 2 tank is no good at all doesn't fit properly and is soft steel. What others should know:A little heavy for a small shooter. Scope mounts easily and is a nice accessory for field shooting.

Things I liked:As with the 1760 SE this is a fine little rifle. Very accurate @ 20 yds. my groups averaged under 3/4 of an inch and seems to like almost any pellet. At 20 yds. it shot circles around the QB 78 family of rilfes even their competition rifle. The trigger is a little creepy but if you have any knowledge of how they work it is easy

At 20 yds. it shot circles around the QB 78 family of rilfes even their competition rifle. The trigger is a little creepy but if you have any knowledge of how they work it is easy to install screw adjustments for freeplay and sear engagement (use caution here you can easily make it too sensitive) it is not necessary to do this as the trigger is easy enough work with and fine for normal shooting and hunting. Fit and finish are quite nice as well, good bluing and nice finish on the stock . I give it a thumbs up all the way Things I would have changed:None, don't mess with success. What others should know:When hunting with this rifle use common sense. Head shots are a must with this rifle. (as with most all CO2 guns) on squirrel and rabbit sized game. If you can't get close enough for a good clean head shot, by all means let him go till the next time, he'll be back.

Things I liked:This is a fine shooting rifle, shooting 1/2 in. groups at 20 yards from a bench rest, at 10 meters it will make one hole about 3/8 in. in diameter using crosman domed pellets. Haven't tried any other pellets yet but I don't see how it could get much better than the way it's shooting now right out of the box with no fine tuning

Haven't tried any other pellets yet but I don't see how it could get much better than the way it's shooting now right out of the box with no fine tuning. I have been shooting a 2260 with iron sights and the groups are tight at 10 meters and 20 yards. The newer models (SE's) have grooved recievers that accept standard scope mounts which are much better than the clamp on barrel mounts which tend to rotate a bit on the barrel. The little bug buster scope is perfect for this rifle it's light weight and the high mounts make loading much easier especially with the .177 the mill dot recticle is also a plus with a high mount scope, the dots work out to be about perfect for the 10, 20 and 30 yard difference in height. I highly reccomend it to anyone getting into airguns. Great off the bench or for field targets. Things I would have changed:The trigger is a little stiff and travel is excessive but is easy to get used to after a few shots, the feel is still pretty crisp. What others should know:
