It's a well built rifle with a nice wood stock. Plenty of power and is accurate. The one problem I have is a crack in the plastic cover on the butt. I have stood the rifle on the butt in a closet but didn't drop it there. I'm using Falcon pellets. Tom
With many similarities to the Crosman 2400, this rifle is fun for the tinkerer. This has enough power to take out rats. Trigger sucks, but there are options on the internet. Wood stock had marks on it and it wasn't in the best shape. If you have the mindset that this is a platform, you will be happy.
Pros
Accurate enough, .6 inch 10 shot groups at 25 yards with JSB 18s. .8 inch 10 shot groups at 25 with Crosman CPHP 14s.
Customizable.
Power. Long barrel speeds up pellets.
Cons
Trigger sucks.
Had some burrs on the crown.
Readily accepts a scope with the grooved receiver. VERY ACCURATE! Suffiently powerful to take squirrels at 30 yards with one shot. I'm very happy with this purchase.
Pros
No pumping. Plenty of shots per co2 cylinder.
Cons
Won't work well in cold weather.
Neat little rifle. NIce hardwood stock, easy to use. Mounted a decent TASCO scope on it and at 15 yards we're hitting the same hole. Highly recommend!
Pros
NIce stock, cost effective, accurate.
Cons
No cons for what it's meant for.
I bought this to be a more powerful plinker just for fun, couldn't pass on the sale price. I prefer 12g CO2 over 88 because they are so much cheaper and it doesn't bother me to have to swap them out. I have probably 200 shots through it now, all Crosman premier domed 14.3 gr. At 15 yards can't miss 3/4" target. I haven't really tried yet to see how good it can get on paper but I suspect it is much better than that. I get 35 +/- good shots on one cart. The open sights are poor quality (like my eyesight is getting to be) so I put a 4x scope on it. Higher rings would have made it easier to load but I've got the technique down now. Not super quiet but not noticeably or alarmingly loud either. I shoot in the backyard with pretty close neighbors.
Pros
For a generic hardwood stock it has beautiful grain and color. The overall fit and finish belies the low price. It is easy to use and is accurate.
Cons
The rear sight is rudimentary junk and snapped off trying to adjust it. The trigger is gritty and not light but is predictable, I suspect it will wear in with time.
put a scope on it from Wal-Mart shot maybe 75 pellets shooting very well at 20 to 30 yards very happy with this gun
Pros
light weight fun to shoot
Cons
none
It reminds me more of the older 262 Crosman with the steel breach mod. I just finished rebuilding that very gun. I was surprised to see how much it looked like my 1077 also! Check it out. :-)
Not sure if this is a Chinese QB deluxe or if the QB is a clone of this rifle. Price is in line with the Beeman import of the QB deluxe. These are great CO2 rifles. Yes you can get more power out of a springer, and of course out of a PCP. This is the rifle the Discovery is based on. Very accurate, and worth putting a 3-9X40 AO scope on. Enough power for rabbits to 40 yards, and if you do your part, accurate enough to do it.any modifications are available For this gun. Lots of fun. Unlike spring/nitro powered guns these are no way as hold sensitive. While certain pellets will shoot better than others, it is not that pellet picky. I use Crossman Premier 7.9 gr and get sub 1" groups to 40 yards. Groups will grow, and velocity will drop if you shoot too fast. Take at least a minute between shots and it will group better. In AZ it can get too hot for CO2 and you can get this gun locked up. I have not had good luck with any of my CO2 guns when it is over 110 degrees. Too cold and power drops. It never gets too cold here. It is not worth giving any chronograph results, as they change with temperature and altitude, as well as they will change with rate of fire too. Suffice to say, it will accomplish small game hunting, great for plinking, and a nice gun to teach shooting and fire arm safety. It is accurate, and is back yard friendly. The power is low enough to make a simple back stop for.
Pros
Price.
Accuracy.
Quality.
Ease of use.
Cons
Could use better iron sights
Far too expensive for a rifle with a plastic trigger and the sides are almost useless
Pros
Power for a co2
Cons
Sights and trigger plastic

I have currently mounted the Winchester #813 on the Sheridan 2260 CO2 rifle. It appears the Sheridan has a significant "barrel droop" This doesn't mean there is a bow in the barrel. It means the muzzle is lower than the chamber and sight mount, whereby the scope mount can't align with the bore of the barrel. I was shooting consistent within an inch at 50 ft. but 8" low. I added 2 thin shims of aluminum under the rear of the sight ring. This brought the impact point up to near the center of the reticle and to the near top of the 9 ring. From there a full turn and a half brought the scope to zero (@ 50 ft.). Any thin flexible material can be used such as film stock, laminating plastic, or gaffer's tape. Without the shimming there aren't enough turns available on the turret to compensate for the 8" difference. My first CO2 rifle. I expected a few more shots from ea cylinder. The last three shots dropped off considerably. Maybe 20-25 rounds.
Pros
Made in 'Merica.
Cons
The barrel droop issue confused me for a bit but was easily corrected.
