Spend Saturday and sunday well.

Had real difficulties to zeroing this. 1st tried with daisy Poweline 3x9. I was impressed with the scope clarity but failed do the zeroing with it. Then I have changed to Bushnell 4x16. It demands high profile mount, which I didn't have. Then I removed the scope fitted with my cfx (bushnell 3x9)and started again. opps!! real nightmare. even at 7 m distance, I was unable to perfect the windage. Was it a problem with my gun or problem with me? Yes! it the problem with me. I didn't realize that B40 is hold sensitive. I was holding this the same way I hold CFX (CFX win here) Slowly I learn hold this beauty and after again started zeroing this. Voila!! I did it. 1 hole group at 7 meters. Moved the target to 25m and yes, 1/4" group. Moved to 50m and the conclusion, if you would like to drop a crow silouhette target with head shot every time, this is the gun for you. (well, cfx can do as well, but not every time)

On CFX it is GRTIII. Be sure to degrease and polish and grease the required place in GTX trigger before installing the GRT otherwise you will not get what you want to

Got it Tirths!...it is foolish to think that the GRT is a slip fit...there is some work on the trigger as a whole before one can get anything out of it...I like your way...you dont' spoon feed...just some vital clues...and when one begins to search, he comes across many important things......

Hello Tirths, congrats for your new gun and happy shooting.It looks impressive as you have described it. Can you just elaborate what you mean when you say "this is not the gun if you have medical issue".Would you feel comfortable to share about the cost of importing it ?

Any kind of neurological Disorders such as Parkinson or minor like simple finger shaking (don't remember the name of the disease)? may not allow you to understand the trigger weight which may cause accidental fire.

Cost of import is $80

Good catch Tirths. Is it bought from a tuner? What caliber is it? The B40 being a clone of one of them R series guns...is it the R9 should be a very good air rifle. In fact at times I think of getting myself one, but then I remember the effort involved and stop. Please add some pics of the rifle and maybe shot thru cans if you can. Enjaaay.

Not R series Dev but TX series. It is a clone of Tx200 MarkIII. I bought it from a tuner however it was untuned one as I prefer to give a try. Will post some more pic for some more eye tonic

So how is this compared to your CFX. By reading some of your posts i get a feeling that you are slightly inclined towards the CFX. Planning to buy a underlever within this range. So looking forward to your comparison of both rifles. What would you recommend for a casual plinker. Which one is more fun.

Oh heck I got it mixed up with the b 28, I have tried the B40 it is more powerful than the original the TX 200. That is why u can't wipe the smirk out of Sid's face.

In all low budget rifle, you got to do professional tuning. With that some perform marginal better and some perform exceptional better. CFX among them which performs exceptional. If you need a gun for plinking and unwilling do a tune and having limited budget, go for B26. Breakbarrel will be always a winner for ease of operation. I wanted to have one of this soon.
