    Scoped they make a great gun for clearing pigeons indoors in barns as they won't damage roofs.
    I use the QYs streamlines but have fitted the updated factory service kit.

    Excellent. Cheers for that. Guessing yours is scoped from what you have said. What do you use?

    Im probably a bit late to this thread, but as stated above the standard 300 rifles are very capable at longer ranges.
    Have a read at this article which really blew my mind regarding the possibilities available.

    Pretty obvious from all the above posts that the 300 range is a much more versatile air rifle than first thought, to me anyway !

    I found it years ago when I was looking for more information on the 300, Owen (Jackroadkill) on the other forum introduced me to the 300s when he did a bell target comp at one the forum meets and I fell in love with how well it shouldered and how easily it made a crap shooter like me ring the bell
    I eventually found one at a target club that was upgrading to pcp and it was only about an hour drive away.

    Bloody fantastic rifles and it also made me realise that side levers are the most comfortable for me
