Like getting 2 rifles for the price of one! Includes .177 caliber and .22 caliber barrels. Each Beeman RS1 has a red fiber optic front sight and green fiber optic rear (fully adjustable). The Beeman 4x32 scope will help get the most accuracy possible from the gun. Everything fits neatly inside the included soft carrying case. Velcro tie-down straps secure the barrels, gun, scope & rings to stop things from shifting during transport. Max velocity in .177 is 1000 fps, and in .22 it's 830 fps. You could use this rifle for plinking, small game hunting, shooting cans and just plain fun! When you change barrels, you MUST sight-in the gun again! It will not shoot to the same aimpoint, even if you sighted-in the barrel when swapping it previously. Every barrel switch requires a new sight-in session.... Don't forget to pick up a variety of recommended pellets, which are listed in the AMMO link. Select appropriate accessories, including scopes and targets, by clicking on the ACCESSORIES link.... Dual-caliber rifle includes .177 & .22 cal barrels, 4x32 scope, rings & soft case...

.22 and .177 cal barrels are very easy to remove and replace. Shoots 3/4 in groups at 30 ft or more. .22 cal shoots thru 3/4in thick wood at about 30 feet. Tried a daisy powerline and found the beeman to be harder to cock but quieter and better shooting.

Bought this at Walmart for 98.00 dollars. I was using crossman pellets and the accuracy was only okay. Bought the Beeman Crow-magnum pellets and this rifle will shoot nickles a 30 plus feet easily. I bought it for squirrel control as they were tearing up our back porch, taken out 3 with 3 shots. One at 60ft dead center hit. The accuracy really improved to fantastic when I used loc-tite blue on the stock and scope screws as the manual says to do. This rifle is Highly recommended. A fantastic and super accurate pellet rifle. Be sure to use beeman pellets or some other high quality pellets as crossman or daisy do not do this rifle justice at all.
Update: 4/19/11 - 16+ squirrels later this rifle was one of the best purchases I ever made. The accuracy is amazing.
Last update 6/11/11 - I stopped counting after 25 squirrels but I'm pretty sure I've gotten rid of at least 40 squirrels. One of the best purchases ever. No more squirrels in my back porch. Worth every penny...Read more

This is the first pellet rifle that I have owned. The construction is very solid. It has a nice wieght and feel about it. The scope is a nice bonus. Very accurate at 50 yrds out. An excellent rifle for the price.
