Make the Quest your go-to backyard friendly shooter! With a combination of silenced shots, 2-stage trigger and new Nitro Piston Elite technology, the Crosman Quest’s tried and true design has undergone a serious revamp.
The SBD (Silencing Barrel Device) introduced previously in models like the Rogue and Mayhem, has been improved to make this breakbarrel 3x quieter than other airguns in its class. This powerful breakbarrel can definitely use some volume control with Crosman’s all-new Nitro Piston Elite powerplant designed to provide forceful shots that deliver 15% more speed, 35% more power, and 2x the accuracy of standard gas pistons. The gas-piston powerplant has many benefits for the shooter including the ability to remain cocked for hours and not lose performance in cold weather. This improved power system translates to up to 23 FPE in .177 caliber and 29 FPE of muzzle energy in .22. With a pull of the 2-stage adjustable CBT trigger, send your rounds downrange with air singeing speeds between and 1100 and 1,400 fps! This Quest SDB sports an all-weather textured synthetic stock with an 11mm Dovetail atop the barrel for the included CenterPoint 4x32 scope.
This combination of features makes the Quest an attractive choice for shooters looking for a quiet, powerful, and easy to use breakbarrel that's ready to shred targets or dispatch any pest on your perimeter!

This is my first Gas Piston powered air gun. I thought it would be a good value with all the features it offered at a good price point. The Glowing reviews also convinced me to buy. I found the reviews to be inaccurate and I question the validity of them. This gun is VERY Heavy, it weighs more than any real gun I own, so its hard to use for anything other than bench shooting, totally impractical to carry around in the woods. This gun jerks violently when shot making it almost impossible to get a group below three inches with almost no consistency. I shot it over 300 times so it would get broken in as they say, I also put a very expensive scope on it, nothing has helped this gun to be more accurate. Maybe Gas Piston or Spring guns are not for me, I owned a Sheridan pump up for 30 years and Loved that gun till it died. I wanted to post my review so there was a different perspective on this model.
Things I would have changed:I would NOT buy this gun again.
What others should know:Go somewhere you can actually shoot the gun you want to buy before you spend your money. Dont rely on online reviews, Unless you can return the gun if you dont like it.

Things I would have changed:Nothing
What others should know:If you are looking for a gas piston air rifle to bag small game for a low price, this is it. I've hunted multiple times and put this rifle through the paces take 40 yard squirrel shots commonly and I've never had an issue. It's cheap, built solid and hits wherever you pull the trigger. I did put a cheap pinty 3-9x40 amazon scope on it and it has held up perfect. I couldnt be more pleased with this inexpensive well built hunting rifle.

I just bought the Benjamin Quest Tactical, which is basically the same gun. I can't zero it in worth a darn, with a rest, or with a knee. At 30 yards my groups are 3-4" apart, and when I get it close to zero it jumps again. The scope I mounted DOES NOT seem to be moving or sliding at all on the rail, I'm experienced in mounting scopes. It also seems to send around 3 flyers per 10 shots, with H&N Sniper Magnum pellets. So far I've tried Crossman and Benjamin domed hollow points, as well as 15gr H&N Sniper Magnum, with about the same results all around. I love the sniper magnums in .177 because they offer a whole lot of punch, and better trajectory than in .22 in my opinion. I want a gun that handles this pellet well. I've successfully used this pellet to kill groundhogs at 100m with my old Benjamin Titan NP, but that barrel got bent so I got their new NP2 model on sale. It feels like it shoots nice, but my grouping is the size of a saucer at 30 yards with a rest and light trigger adjustment, regardless of pellet. Should I take it back and get a new one? Can someone recommend the best pellet for this gun?
If you are consistently getting flyers with different pellets it would appear that the gun is defective. You should get decent groups with at least one pellet type. Sniper magnums are difficult pellets to find a suitable gun for. Your gun may do better with a lighter hollow point,or polymag.
What is the difference between this models SBD and the BQT22TDNS-SX versions SBD?,,i noticed a difference in appearance,,is one newer, or better?
The interior parts are probably the same. The stock and exterior fittings different.
Can open sights be attached?
No. Only a red dot sight.

Things I would have changed:Trigger, trigger, trigger. lousy scope
What others should know:I've had this for a couple of years now. I set up pop cans at about 35-40 yards. I usually do 10/10 or 9/10. I found it so easy to hit these cans that I starteds setting them on end and aiming for the aiming for the opening-lever rivet. While it brings my average down yes, I do hit that rivet occasionally as well as all over the top of the can. The trigger is the worst that i've experienced but I've worked on getting used to it. It has such a loooong travel to let off. It still sucks but I adjusted to it. Yes, it is heavy but I don't carry it far from camp.
