I hit the order button
« on: January 18, 2009, 08:44:01 AM »
I have renewed a very old friendship and as I talked about my interest in air rifles my friend became interested and asked my advice on what to get.  Actually, what he said was, "What should I get and if you get one I will too."  Well, something to that effect and over several conversations.  
What I had told him was that from what I could tell, the B-26 seems unusually popular especially the MM lube tuned B-26's.  Based on what I've read it is a safe purchase.  It looks to me like the CZ452  is to rimfires.  CZ rimfires are the best bang for the buck in sporting rimfire bolt action rifles.  I can shoot surprisingly similar scores with my CZ Trainer that I shoot with my Anschutz 1907 and the Annie was 9 X's the cost of the CZ.  
I hit the order button for two 26's.  Do I need to order a scope stop, or just rings with a stop pin?    I'm looking forward to having a better springer.

Good choice for you and your friend...I'm sure you gonna love the MM B26. A stop is not needed, just get an Accushot one piece mount and the scope will stay where you put it. Enjoy and post a pic of the twins when you get 'em.

Yep....read alot of good things on the MM tuned B26's.  Should be good shooters in the mid-power level.  Congrats on your twin purchases.

You will love your twin shooters, Especially after one of Mikes tunes. I have two B 26, one is a B 26-2 .22cal and the other is a Mike Melick tuned B 26 .177cal. They are the smoothest shooters I have. All you need is a Accushot one piece mount and you will be be in heaven........Bill
