I've been airgunning for 30 years.
Started on cheapo Daisy "boy-scout" style guns that still fire today.
From there went to Crosman rifles that still fire today. I know for a fact that th ... |

I own one.
I like it alot.
I have put about 2,000 rounds through it in the 3 months of owning it.
It does not like Daisy pellets. sends them flying.
It seems to like Crosman Premier Hollow ... |

I use the RWS hollow point field line pellets. (for hunting squirrl)
Open them at home on the hobby table and then pour what I feel I need for the day into an old Crosman tin. |

Doesn't it matter what you plan on doing with the gun???
Paper targers or tin cans, the .177 is a great choice.
Hunting grizzy bear or bison, I'd go with the larger caliber. |

 |
I went with the RWS.
It is a nice gun. My first RWS. (most likely not the last)
It is quite accurate.
Out of the box at 30 feet I was placing pellets ontop of the previous hole. I needed to adju ... |

There are true idiots in this world.
The largest "critter" that I would EVER try to drop with a pellet gun is a squirrl. Even then, the trigger does not get pulled unless I can get a clean ... |

The Summit has done me well. I have shot about 3,000 pellets through it.
My favorite pellets for that particular rifle are either the hollow point Crosman or ... |

I have a Remington Summit break barrel.
There are a few places online where people review the gun to be in-accurate.
This is not the case with mine. (it does NOT shoot Daisy pellets well)
