I have a fully tuned QB78 deluxe in .22, and as long as you're willing to tune it, it's a great rifle for the price. They only kick out about 7ft/p stock, but with the TR Robbs tuning kit it's chronoing at 11.8/11.9 with bisley pest.

 

You can do some free tuning on it, which will improve it, and I can give you links if you need them, or you could buy the full TR Robbs kit, and fully tune it.

personally i'd stay away from the SMK and opt for the bsa, in my experience Smk's arn't worth it...

 

Just my opinion...

Hi, mate.

Have a look in the 'for sale' section on this site. Some real bargins pop up.

CO2's ok, so long as (as said) the gun's up to it. Remember though that what you may save when first buying, you'll quickly make up for it with buying more gas, and maybe having to dick about with the gun to bring it up to speck.

 

Cheers.
