Xisico XS-B20, .177 cal Review

Overall Rating

Solid air rifle, good metal and wood work, nice flow, compact and comfortable at point shoulder. Accurate rifle with a light trigger that makes shooting fun and successful.

Screws needs loctiting, trigger can become too light unless you loctite it. Wood on my rifle was some imperfections.

My Xisico XS-B20, .177 cal has not been tuned yet I keep saying that I'm going to send it off, to the Tuna, but I can't decide if I should tune this or another rifle.

During the 1st review I was just breaking the rifle in, shooting 10-30 meters getting some tight 5-10 shot groups using the CP 10.5 pellets.

In this review I took it to the Gun club to shoot at a longer range 25-75yrds and against mother nature. There was a 10-15mph crosswind; I had to adjust for out pass 50 yards. The 1st time I brought the B20 to this range it fell while leaning against a counter and messed up the scope setting and I couldn't get it to group.

I fixed all that problem and returned to the range, a week later. I resighted the rifle at 25 yards and proceeded to shotdown range. Starting at the 25 yard line I was able to hit and bust all the 4" targets even at the 75 yard range with hardly any problem. The only problem I had was the trigger needs loctiting, it was so light that it will fire before you are ready sometimes, just a screw driver fix. Its more user error because I'm use to a mushy two stage trigger and the B20 is shooting like a very light 2 stage, but calling a spade a spade its shooting like a 1 stage trigger rifle. I have not adjusted the trigger screw in front of the trigger guard, because it's light enough. I need to get this rifle Tuned, so I can take full advantage of its potentials.

This is a hard hitting rifle the 10.5 pellets where hitting the back stop with a resounding thump at 75 yards and where buried deep into the 3/4" plywood stop. This rifle is shooting the 7.9 cpl 920-915fps and the CPH 686-680-fps.

For the money one of the best air rifles out there, I paid $96.00. It's accurate and fun to shoot, I'm still impressed.
