    By John from USA on 2011-01-25 11:16:31

    Things I liked:Light weight and accurate with right pellet and springer hold. Would make a great introduction to shooting for young folks.
    Things I would have changed:Not much but it would be nice if there were some options for globe inserts. Looks like your pretty much stuck with a post front sight (which is a special insert) unless you maybe can get a little creative.
    What others should know:A lot of fun even for the older crowd especially after man handling a ten pound springer.

    By Customer from USA on 2009-12-05 22:54:52

    Things I liked:Looks modern,shoots okay, chrono-graphed consistently at 400fps, it's below the stated fps, but at least very consistent according to my chrony (tm). Adjustable stock.
    Things I would have changed:Trigger was not as advertised. very, very disappointed. Even the book that came with the gun shows a different trigger system. This one is not adjustable as advertised. My sons red ryder bb gun is more accurate with bb's? No really! This gun is not worth the 100 dollar bill. Don't get me wrong, I like Baikal products. I have two of their shot guns, a .22 cal international pistol and another 10meter air pistol of which I compete with against guys with Walther's and Morini's and the such and do very well in, in expert class, but this one really falls short of what I am used to from Baikal. I would not suggest it for the money.
    What others should know:2nd air gun from Pyramyd and not impressed so far. But they have a lot to select from, so I just might be choosing the wrong stuff from them at this time. Need to call them and find out why the Baikal was not as advertised. Probably didn't get the memo from Baikal. The gun is worth 50 to 75bucks tops, and wished Pyramyd would sell it in that fashion. Right now I have Buyers Remorse.

      Things I liked:This is probably the best air rifle I ever bought. Extremely light, and extremely accurate! I fitted it with an Anschütz diopter and 2.8mm glass aperture insert, and made it into a training weapon for 10m match practise, with which I score similar results as with the club's Feinwerkbau 300. And that for a price of less than $100! This gun never ceases to provide a broad grin on my face every time I hold it in my hands!
      Things I would have changed:The rear sight notch blade has to be unscrewed for adjusting windage. It would have been nice if it had a knob for that to do.
      What others should know:Give it a lube tune before firing your first shot. The preservation lubricants Baikal uses have a tendency of being a bit dried up. Other than that, there's just one thing any airgunner should know: BUY IT!!! Accuracy and fun guaranteed for life!

      Things I liked:Well built for the money; adjustable stock works for wide range of kid & small adults. 9 year-old daughter can operate rifle by herself (with supervision).

      Things I liked:This gun is EXTREMELY light. The pistol grip adds tremendous amounts of manuverability. Fair amount of power. Easy to load and work the side lever. Extremely quiet. Fast target aquisition. The adjustable stock makes it great for all ages, even me at age 21. Simply the best gun you can get for $100 and maybe the best gun you can get for less than $200. Another thing that was cool is that when you pull the side lever, the bolt automatically opens. Very light trigger. Did i say this thing is light?
      Things I would have changed:This gun is alot smaller than the picture depicts. Some kind of scale to compare the actual size would help. The rear sight doesn't have a windage adjustment as far as i can tell, but it's already dead on anyway. The elevation adjustment increments are too large in my opinion. A longer sight radius would also help. When i said it's extremely light, it's probably too light for 10 meter air rifle. You would need to add weight to it for competition shooting.
      What others should know:Having six years of precision 10 meter air rifle experience with PCP Feinwerkbaus, C02 Crosmans, pneumatic Avantis, and PCP Steyrs, I can tell you this gun will hold its own and you will not be disappointed, ESPECIALLY for a hundred bucks. It's extremely easy to use and would be particularly suitable for younger ones, but even people who are picky about their guns like me will like this one.

      Things I liked:Extremely light and compact. A blast to shoot all day, it is really hard to put down. Easy to cock and a fantastic trigger. Unlike the 61, this has a rail in front of the breech and one in the rear so putting on a scope is not an issue. I had to remove the rear sight though. Also very quiet.
      Things I would have changed:The windage adjustment is a pain (ended up mounting a scope). Also the bolt lever is very short and small, wish it had a knob or something on it.
      What others should know:Most fun airgun under $100. This gun is very hold sensitive. I balance the gun on my fist just in front of the trigger guard and place the stock on top of my shoulder so the gun is almost floating. It has improved my accuracy 10 fold. But that being said, it is a challenge to shoot well. But hey that's half the fun. Also I would pick this over the 61. The 61 seems to have accuracy issues with the clips and loading this is just as fast once you consider the pellets fall out and sometimes jam the 61. Also you don't run the chance of dry firing. I shot a 61 before buying the 60, and this is better gun.

      Things I liked:Adjustable stock is GREAT for smaller shooters (like me) or kids as they grow. No more cutting a wood stock and later trying to splint it back as the kid grows. Or if you have more than one kid sharing the rifle, you can adjust the stock to fit each kid. :-) BTW this is my beef with many so called youth guns. They are simply low powered guns, and they do NOT fit a kid. Getting the length of pull down to 12" (the min LoP on the IZH-60) gets it to fit the smaller kids and adults. The trigger is probably the best in its price class and probably also the next price class up. Even without the adjustments of the version 1 rifle, the trigger is still GREAT. Easy to cock. Unlike a breakbarrel, the sidelever does not require getting out of position to cock the rifle. I like training rifles to be SINGLE shot, so the shooter/kid knows that they are loading the rifle.
      Things I would have changed:Include with the rifle or have available for sale alternate front sight inserts, especially aperture inserts.
      What others should know:If you want to use this for informal 10m shooting, you really want to have an aperture insert in the front sight. The problem is that the plastic front sight assembly of the version 2 rifle is completely different than the metal front sight assembly of the version 1 rifle, and unlike any that I have seen. So alternate inserts for the version 2 rifle needs to be supplied by IZH and stocked by the reseller. For a new shooter, install a red-dot sight, it is a lot easier to teach and learn than iron sights. Mounting the red-dot sight on the rifle is tricky, but doable.

      Things I liked:price, $100 is about right. If you take off the stock there are two slots for the bolt so you can get an extra inch or so out of it, that was nice.
      Things I would have changed:Longer grip, it just feels short in my hands. Wish that the peep sight was still included. More apertures for the globe site. Metal receiver, with a bolt that fits it, mines loose. less plastic screws.
      What others should know:I think that my expectations were out of wack with what this gun could deliver. I was looking for an upgrade from my Daisy Grizzly. That said I feel that the Daisy is a more accurate gun. I might have gotten a dud? It might be that it's a springer, or might just not be long enough for this gun to 'settle in' (though I'm a . It could be user error but this gun is all over the place. I've tried changing my hold, I've run a selection of pellets thru it, and I still can't do better then a 2.6" grouping, 10 shots at 25 ft, I can do a 1.5" with the Daisy with the same setup. It seems like it's a decent gun, just not as accurate as I expected.
