Indians For Guns

Okay I put the QB through its paces at the ten meter range. I will try to attach pics if that fails then i will try to mail em to Mack The Knife.

I shot about a hundred pellets with my little nephew in tow. The rifle was too much for him so he sat spinning the target setting wheels and generally reminding me to change the target each time he thought that enough shots had been fired.

This fun specially when you are shooting off hand trying to keep a Cross hair on a pin hole and the little un comes and tugs at your trousers. .
So baang and their goes your dream of a clover leaf.

Or at times he just needed to get your attention for a soft drink...but I still cranked off some groups and shot holes into a deo can. The deo can was shot with my special pellets. Wad cutters coul just penetrate one side.

The QB is supposed to shoot clover leafs and one hole groups at twenty yards so I thought that ten m was a no brainer. But what I had forgotten was what an American guy asked in another board are you capable of shooting a clover leaf...have you ever shot five into one hole??

Whoops, haven't got the hang of posting the pics so here are some more groups, the rifle and the accessories that you need. 1/8 NPT to ASA adapter this helps you to fill gas from the paint ball bottle to your rifle.

I normally have my gas filled in the bottle by professionals. Thanks to Asif's contacts. Oops the adapter hasn't come as we can post three pics per article. I shall post it later.

Dev,

You aren't doing that rifle any favours.

Either the pellets are wrong or the bore needs to be cleaned. Did you clean the bore before firing your first shot? It may have looked clean but manufacturers usually line their barrel bores with some form of anti-rust as the rifles may be in storage for a few months to a few years.

At 10 metres you should have a thumb-nail size group at the very least and that from a recoiling 'springer'.

Check your stock and scope-mount screws whilst you are at it.

Once you have cleaned the bore, shoot another twenty shots before attempting a group. When shooting for groups keep your point of aim (POA) away from where the pellets are hitting - other wise the POA tends to get shot out.

It was actually a mix of two things, firstly wadcutters desi ones plus they don't apparently shoot well in this rifle with its hopped up valve. It predfers JSB or FTs domes where the heck do I get those, best that I have are Crosman wadcutters. Secondly, i hadn't noticed that the barrel to stock screw had gone loose. The bore apparently was cleaned by the God of QB's Tim Of Mac 1 airguns. Anyway for a while I thought that I had gone bonkers or the scope was out. I will post groups again after shooting on Saturday. But even with these groups I enjoyed blasting away, mostly off hand except for the pistol target. Dev

Great stuff Dev! But I have a better and more efficient paper punching machine on my desk.. Cheap too just 30 bucks! Hyuk Hyuk..

hey dev..

Yup I also let a long haired fellow have a go at some of Mack The Knife's targets. And you are witness to the fact that a little kid was tugging at my legs every third shot

Dev,

Thought this would be of interest to you.

Accuracy
On a calm day, a stock QB78 should keep all its shots on a nickel at 20 yards, or a quarter at 25. Shoot Crosman Premiers and JSB Exacts for best results.
