    Hi all.

    Does anyone have one of these? I'd like to know the shot count and if the bottle is removable .

    Thanks

    Artemis M16A

    Just watched Si's video and for a £399 rifle as he says, it's as accurate as anything costing £800 or £900 with a single hole 3 shot group at 27yds and one which would be coverd by a 6 pence piece at 55Yds. Might have to give this serious thought!

    Cheers, Phil

    Watched the full video and you can't fail to be impressed, a lot of manufacturers will have to sit up and listen to what's coming out of China. I've been shooting a p10 for a while and the accuracy is up there, the stocks and seal quality lets them down though.

    Hi BH, the s410 is also a cracking gun,
    it was my first pcp i had one for about 3 years
    and it was very reliable and consistantly accurate and i got loads of bunnies
    with that airgun it was in.22 cal, so i would think carefully about the s410.

    I have one in stock , looks to be a very good for the price stock is a bit bland but at the price you have to expect that. I dont think you can remove the bottle it looks to be like the Daystate rifles with no valve in it . You fill it the same as the
    Daystate the only problem is that you have to fill the bottle using the gauge on your tank, the gauge on the rifle is for the regulator pressure . I dont know how many shoots you will get this is will be down to the calibre and power setting ect., but it should be good looking at the size of the bottle. The trigger is good and its very accurate took it to my local club for people to try and they were impressed with it.

    Hi Brian. It's a pre anti tamper model in a craftsman vit bullpup stock.

    My mate has not got the time for shooting now although he wants my shotgun so I will swap him.

    Rifle ,charging set and scope.

    A lot of people whine about these cheaper guns, but not everybody has the funds to buy FX &Daystate airguns so if these cheaper guns do the job imo thats fine, i own kral breaker bullpup mine works fine ,i also own a hatsan at4/10 .177 bullpup this all so shoots fine, so i may try this M16 artemis in.177 very soon.

    The M16 is the standard cylinder version; the bottle version is the M16A, like here:
