Good Points

Accurate, cheap, well made, smooth cocking, hard hitting, easy to tune, multishot and to those of us who own them (good looking)!


Bad Points

Heavy, you have to remove body to adjust pellet stop (unless you make a small hole in the body)


General Comments

Since owning my 65ftlb career 707 (target version) I've been nothing but amazed at its performance!
Having owned guns like the daystate harrier X and rapid 7, the career had a lot to live up too!
Well, it sure didn't let me down. At first it felt clumsy, bulky and heavy but after a while, a lot of testing using the power adjuster and a bit of setting up, a sling and tuning, it started to show it's true colours.
I can hit a 2inch target at about 70 yards with .22 bisley magnums (21gns)1140fps and the same at forty yards with Ely magnums (30gns)1014fps the Ely magnums are particularly hard hitting due to their weight. AWESOME RIFLE can't recommend them highly enough.

    Is your 707 the new mark 3 model? I'm waiting to get my F.A.C. back from the police so I can go and collect my bought and paid for 707 mark 3 and the waiting is the worst, it been just over 10 weeks and theres still no sign of it yet...I've owned a webley patirot .22 with a 32lb spring but it was hell to load and it was really loud. I enjoyed reading your review and hope to be leaving my own soon...

    No, mine is the mk2 version, I would like mk3 though!

    Since sourcing a supply of korean pellets my groups are now pellet sized at 60 yards cant chronoscope it as it keeps destroying my chrono with the air blast!

    I'm interested to buy a career rifle for hunting purpose, But I'm very confused about the difference among the mark2 & Mark3, Also between the carbine & the normal one (is there any defference in performance ?!).
