General Comments
The Xisco B-40 is an extremely accurate underlever spring airgun. At approximately 15 yards I can consistently shoot .25 inch groups with 5 shots while sitting and balancing my elbow on my knee (using Gamo match flatheaded pellets). I am almost 60 years old and for me this is about the best that I can do. When I first got this rifle my groups had been very poor this was due to an overly tight loading port which caused extremely difficult pellet insertion and upon closing the breach block would cause some pellet deformation. I solved this problem by taking a fine dermel head and slightly throating the loading port area. Now pellets fit perfectly and the accuracy is amazing!
