New Owner
« on: July 20, 2007, 06:48:01 AM »
Hello everyone,
I have recently brought a used XB78 in .177 and have ordered a new one in .22.
The .177 is a delightful gun and for the price I paid for it is is tremendous value.
I plan on sending my .22 to Ian Lamb for some tuning.
In the meantime I will add that I am enjoying the .177 and with iron sights I managed a ten shot grouping within an inch and a half at 20 yards which is good for me!
Best wishes,
Alan  :)
It\'s OK it\'s just a bruise!
