    I had the 60S, same gun but in .22 and I recently sold it to another forum member and thoroughly regret doing so

    Like yours mine squeaked and groaned when cocking but fettled well and was super-consistent and very accurate when I was done with it.

    Maybe I need another one as a project...

    Cheers forgot to add that last week in the snow coke cans were hung out on garden frames at 30 40 50 and 60 yards.

    Zeroed @ 30 and using the mil dots even in the mild cross wind shots were easy to spot with the puffs of snow indicating the margin by which the missed shots could be corrected. All cans hit repeatedly and with good groups and even the 60 yarder punctured top to bottom through the thickest part of the aluminium can.

    Without the snow to show the way in which the shots were flying I doubt such hit rates for me would be repeatedly made, but it did show the accuracy and power levels at extended range and was quite a confidence booster.

    But bugger me it was cold loading, fumbling with frozen fingers those tiny .177 pellets!

    I bought a 60s last week for £75.
    Cocks smoothly and is doing 11.6 with accupells.
    Really looking forward to some serious plinking with it.

    Good stuff if it is new it will run in with a couple of tins through it no doubt. Quite a good rifle especially for the money and one you won't mind using in all weathers and conditions if out pest controlling in the field

    I bought mine 2nd hand but it is as new.
    Im really suprised at how easy it is to cock. I even got the shop to chrono it for me as I was worried about spring damage.
    They had it doing 11.8 with air arms field pellets.
    £75 for a rifle with a walnut ( ? ) stock, not bad is it.
