Crosman Silver Fox NP Air Rifle

Purchased here in Montreal from a gun dealer rifle is advertised at 0.177 cal @ 1200 fps....mine is shooting 570 / 580 max i can get with lead pellets 7.4 grains. just sent an e-mail to customer center see what they say. here in Canada everything that shoots over 500 fps we need gun licence.

First review is a fail, bummer. Thought the color was kinda neat, hate the stock tho. Art; I prefer the 177 b/c the .22 is a bit too slow imo. If the gun could even fire a 34gr consistantly it would be less than 450fps. The .25 are not much better and the cost and extremely limited selection of .25 pellets make it very undesirable. The accuracy problem is the gun itself, the fix is to correct the probems which means some work, and often buying a new barrel or just returning the gun. The only real fix is buying a better quality gun for more $. Paul; the 1200 does not apply to anything but the lightest alloy pellets, so a 9.8gr is likely ~900fps. Even the most powerful magnum springer cannot push a 9.8 to 1200 unless it's dieseling, which is cheatng. Glad you have good accuracy b/c it's not the norm. These guns are made in china and what the op described is very common, so in this case it usually is the tool.

I have a great nitro 177. I can stack pellets with it. It clocks 1200 with 9.8gr and I can group pretty much any pellets though 9.8 is the lowest I prefer. Given the chance I prefer 10 up. I get 1in groups at 50yds easily and consistently. It did take a tin and practice but learning the proper hold (it's not the artillery either though my springer 1200 requires a very light version) took a week. Both guns 180% difference in everything but power and I can get stacks of at 35 with a 4x32 every time and better if I try at all. No, it's likely you not the gun unless you have a bad crown. As for. 177, no issues whatsoever :) You can have all the experience and guns in the world but they're usually different and sometimes VASTLY on what they need from you. There's a saying about the craftsman who blames his tools but I don't want to be rude. It's always in my mind until I break the codes to the gun though which is why I mention it. It's helpful to me.

I have a Benjamin Regal NP in .177 and shoot .5" groups @ 25 yards. I also own a Crosman Venom, 2 Benjamin Titan and 2 Crosman Genesis in .177 and .22. I get similar results with all of them. That's just my experience.

William is right here! Luckily I listened to a pro who said to get the velocity down when you see "1200" feet per decond. I went with .22 Fury Nitro. But even then 14 and 16 grain pellets were flying wild! Thank the good folks at JSB for giving gas spring shooters 25 grain "Monsters" and 34 grain "Beast" pellets. Crosman should have made NP guns in .25 ONLY. Hatsan got it right: their econo gas spring is in .25. I will be clear: Even with a peep sight and super DaTuna trigger upgrade, without extra heavy JSB pellets my Fury was like a BB gun! Good luck to any buyer who gets the Nitro in .177.
