I'm looking for a good bb revolver under 75 USD. Must be fairly accurate and shoot about 10-20 yards.

Not many accurate and inexpensive pellet guns

BB's are not accurate. <clicky
Crosman 1008 pellet pistol usually is {or can be made to be} accurate. <clicky

Hi Quelt

As 23ib0d0n said, BB's are not accurate, So if you want to have accurate revolver I suggest you go for a pellet shooting revolver, For the price you are wanting to pay I would say to go for the CROSMAN 357W, This one is Co2 powered and shoots .177 (4.5mm) pellets at 435fps, So this one should be pretty accurate for long range target shooting and plinking, Pyramidair are selling these on special offer at the moment for $49.95 reduced from $74.95, I'm not sure how long this offer will be for so if you want it hurry!


Stevie Thumb Up!

At under $75, your choices get a bit more limited. For "revolver" style pistols, those with multi-shot magazines, the choices get cut down even further- leaving few options other than Crosman product.

Another example is the Crosman 3576 ("357")- which has a 10-shot magazine, but shoots pellets only- no BBs:

And for an idea on pricing:

I was thinking action and not looks, but the .357{6 or 10} was always $80 so I didn't even think of that one Embarassed

Crosman seems, at least over the last few weeks, to be getting more aggressive with their pricing. I just found that Wal-Fart is carrying a few of their guns in my area that are noticeably cheaper than they had been- and the newer pricing is putting a larger gap between Crosman product and the Daisy stuff on their shelves.

Don't know if this is just some sort of "summer" deal or will continue onward.

thanks for the help and the 760 pumpmaster at my walmart is only 20 cents more than the red ryder

20 cents? That's unbelieveable! It used to be closer to $20 (the Crosman being more expensive).

Also- I just noticed, right now- that Stevie had pointed out the 3576 as well- a few minutes before me- I really need to start typing faster! I wasn't trying to be repetitive.

Can we assume quelt that you bought the 760? If so- it's an OK gun- not the most accurate or the best available (obviously, at the price category it's a part of)- so if it's your first airgun don't let it's less than optimal quality turn you off. Also- it's not a "bad" gun- just not a precision instrument.

Good luck and happy shooting!
