I am in the market for a new toy. The chinese springers are catching my eye. What is the hot n skinny on the best one for plinking and hunting. May occasionally call for raccoon removal. Looking for it in .22. Leaning towards the B 28. Thanks, John

That or the B26 would both be worth a look. Mike Melick (http://airgunartisans.com/flyingdragon/ (http://airgunartisans.com/flyingdragon/)) is the name to know.

The TF-89 or the Beeman branded version called a RS2 are strong in 22, stronger than the B26. I've been getting 810 fps with beeman Silver Bear .22 after a nice clean and lube, using all factory parts. Nice trigger, no need for an aftermarket one, and a little heft to is making it not so hold sensitive. Some may take that as a drawback. Plus you can pick it up at Wal-mart for about $130.

(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif)B 28A .22cal .... she is definitly hot n skinny. I bought my B 28A .22cal about a month ago from Mike Melick, put about 500 pellets thru her and I am still working on her hold. She is ahold sensative air rifle. I can group at 10m 5/8 inches, not bad for a person with 20/400 eyesight. I do not own a chrony yet but working on that. She packs a wallop, with a recoil to boot. For me she is a keeper.......Bill(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)
