General Comments

Got my Indusry Brand QB78 from Shark fox for £49.99 if you want one at this price act soon a little bird tells me the main supplier is about to put his prices up.
What a gem straight from the box fitted a 3-9x50 scope and essential high mounts to aid acess to the bolt.
Shooting from a rest 5 or 6 pellets later the scope is bang on giving 3/4" groups at 30 yards. Recoiless air guns really are the answer.
Power was ok but a visit to sandwell field sports for a tune now shows 11.47ftlbs with air arms diablo .22 pellets fantastic value and service all for £25.00! and no change in fantastic accuracy.
Remember folks its no use having massive power if you can't put the pellet on the spot! I've now got a full power very accurate rifle for £ 75.00.
I understand CO2 can be temperature sensitive so this is something that needs to be reviewed.
I've not tried this outfit on the bunnies yet but I have supreme confidence in responsible hunting ranges(my max 30 yards) will keep you posted.
I've been getting about 35 full power shots from 2 capsules only one slight moan is that there is no fast way to empty the chamber of CO2 when the power starts to fall.
Trigger is a bit vague but I cant moan as i'm getting 3/4" groups at 30 yards!
Ok so the finish is not the same as some German or expensive British rifles but in the accuracy stakes there is nothing to touch it for a tuned price of £75.00.
No one is going to comment on the finish whilst you are lying in a field bagging bunnies.
Overall a fab rifle which represents superb value I can't recommend it highly enough.
Fab service from both sharkfox and sandwell field sports.
Straight shooting and remember to have fun afterall thats what its all about.
