Recently given a springer air rifle. It has an underlever for cocking. The gun seems rather in the low power as it doesnt penetrate steel, thin metal, or plastic. With my chrony being at the farm I can test for velocity but Im thinking some where in the 600 fps or lower with a 10.9 grain pellet.
Ill do an accuracy test and see how it goes. These old b3 clones...i think this is what this is. Not 100% sure

If it is a B3 or clone of, you might try lighter weight pellets and hold onto the cocking lever while loading.

Dont have any light pellets here. Nothing below 10 grains. She is very accurate though

I chronoed two of those with 7.9gr Pell's and got around 650fps.
