Crosman Optimus .177 495 fps air rifle review

[under500]

Today I'll be reviewing the Crosman Optimus air rifle from Canadian Tire. I live in Canada, so I only have the 495fps model. Even still, this gun packs some power. When I first looked at the gun, the wood stock instantly appealed to me. It was a less expensive rifle, so I bought it. When I got home with it, I put some rounds through it to find it to be very quiet, which I liked. I then installed the scope, a CenterPoint 4x32mm, and went outside to zero it in, when I found that the scope required no zeroing in! Talk about convenient! It was hitting right where I was aiming, and what's more, it was going about half and inch into a wood block with Crosman Premier Pointed Pellets (7.4gr). The scope was great for the rifle, and stayed sighted in. Overall, I give this gun a 10/10 and would recommend it to any Canadian buyer, and I'm sure the American version is just as good, if not better, because it shoots faster.
