Shockwave | American Airgunner 

Not too shabby for straight out of the box without cleaning the barrel most new guns require cleaning and maybe 50 or so pellets before they settle down

The experience I have had with my break barrels is that they are extremely sensitive to hold. For a while I thought my relatively expensive sights were defective. I would get them sighted in getting 1/2 to 1 inch groups at 20 to 30 yards. Next time I would use them they would be off. I discovered if I held the gun exactly the same as I had the previous time shooting they would magically be correctly sighted. Why? Due to the pellets being in the barrel while the two directional recoil is taking place makes them much more sensitive hold, balance and harmonics. Yes, airguns have a break in period, just like powder burners and usually perform better after break in. Your review showed the Crosman Shockwave to be decent break barrel. It would be helpful if manufacturers would list the weight of the pellets used to get their alleged pellet speeds. Anyhow, good job!

It's actually a pretty great scope for being a $35 cheapo you can get online. I consistently hit soda can size targets at 60 yards with this air rifle and scope combo, and she's adjusting way too much, I mounted the scope and only had to make one adjustment (3 clicks up) to get it hitting dead on at 60 yards. Great air rifle for accurate long range cheap fun. I paid $145 for mine but it was at Bi-Mart not Walmart so being a little more expensive was expected.

It will get more dialed in the more you break it in. Mine was pretty bad when i got it. After about probably 500 shots, its VERY accurate

I have 5 different crosmans folks need to learn to clean shoot and load I am very satisfied with mine just change the scopes I shoot mine at 75 yards very accurate u must break them in first wish I could afford the pcps though

The gun is way more accurate than the crappy scope it comes with. If you get a good mill dot scope and do the rc bearing trigger mod you can hit shotgun shells at 50 yards all day. I was hitting a 12" metal sign at 120 yards with a 20" holdover 8 out of 10 shots no bs.

Thank you. I just got this one for Christmas (early). I took it out today and put about 20 or so pellets through it. Had to make some adjustments to the Iron sights. I'm not quite done yet. Need to put about 30 more pellets through it, before I put the scope on.

Cheap pellets always have considerable variations in weight, giving you a hard time both shooting and zeroing. I level gun and scope and also divide pellets by weight with a balance scale. After that, you can't miss a shot guys.

You have to make bigger adjustments with the scope. Think in terms of half a turn or full turn. You get the idea 💡.😉👍

I have the same air rifle. Working to get it zero'd in drove me nuts. I am using the included site and I had to go up about 80clicks and right about 30clicks. I also bought the crosman hollow points which I have found are the least accurate(2-3" groups). I tried ruger super point pellets and instantly went to 1" groups(15yrds).

Thanks guys

Not shooting a break barrel at this point BUT I am shooting the Crosman Premier Hollow Points in 22cal. Today alone I hit a playing card at 30...40...50...and 85yds. Ok 4 different cards. But seriously, the ammo is spot on if u take the time to wash, lube, measure head diameter and weigh. Haha I know too much right. But for $9 I can have 500 pellets that just need a little love OR you can spend $20-30 for a tin...ur choice

What a beauty and the airgun aint bad either

Powerful 👍 good for me for the pines lakes 22 good hit 🎯. I love iron sights I'm good at 40 50 yards all you need... Great content on your test

My first recent (as in the last 45 years) pellet rifle is a Crosman Legacy 1000. 10 pumps for each shot got old, so on to a Gamo Whisper Fusio0n .22 break barrel and then a Beeman R9 .177 break barrel. Crosman has to be right there with Daisy when it comes to getting people into (or back into) air guns. Have to admit, I'm seriously looking at getting into PCP with a Air Venturi Avenger .22. Big $$ move, so maybe after I pay off the Beeman and Hawke scope that I went with it. Meantime, the local shooting range here opens at 11:00 AM tomorrow, so I'll be there at 10:45 AM to get a good spot. Have dialed the Beeman to 25yds, going to move out to 50yds. Good times..

Great presentation

Nice job young lady! Left to right= windage Up and down= elevation. I wanna get one of these Shockwaves for varmint control. Your excellent vid sold me on getting one. Thank u!

Hah! You got a better group with iron sights? Sounds like the reticle in the scope is stuck. Sometimes lightly tapping the scope on a table can free it up. Thumb up.

Would've been nice to see actual data collected on velo and dB

I used some neon orange nail polish on the front sight, made a big difference

Well done!

I am going to get me one . Walmart has it right now for 128.00i will be getting me one

Приобрёл данную винтовку. По началу она показалась недоступной в плане точности и стабильности. Сдал обратно из-за выявившегося дефекта ствола. Дефект исправили... Осваиваю, привыкаю, пристреливаю. Подобрал пульки 0.8гр. всё летит куда захочу, со штатным прицелом на 25-30м, дальше пока не позволяет стрельбище. Винтовкой доволен. ..."Нет плохого оружия, есть плохие стрелки." Ворошилов.

Try to under stand the gun what kind of pellet better for this rifle

This woman should be in magazine covers. Nice rifle by the way.

Set scope to get better resault

Thank you it helps for you to put on the scope

I'd put my Hatsan AirTact ($98 at Cabela's) up against your Crosman any time!

Interesting. Nice price.

Nice review. Can anyone put a decibel read on how loud this rifle is

Darling you should always be working in front of the camera . You could make a pile of junk look good. You should be on the cover of Elle magazine. Phenomenal!

it's not the scope, bought 1 for my son and it was literally all over a 8" target at 10yds and to me that is completely unacceptable.

I was surprised how quiet it was 👍

Please recommend a better scope for a break barrel...

Are they any scope height adjustable scope mounts? To get more range of adjustments for instances like this. Referring to height wasn’t changing much with this scope.

Try not holding the stock hard against your shoulder break barrels need to recoil and it should help. Try shooting in hand instead of on bench. My break barrel is more accurate in hand. Throw away the scope😝

I have the same gun I can hit a 4-in Target at 75 yards I believed I aimed 3 ft up and 1ft left.

How accurate was your first shot, with the scope?

I have noticed that most of the people doing reviews are shooting a relatively small number of shots. I would suspect that a new rifle would have some degree of dieseling during the first shots which would have an adverse affect on accuracy.

I am very interested in the barrel.

Very good!

I bought mine from Walmart 6 years ago for $80. It’s a nice brake barrel rifle. Pretty accurate, I just didn’t like the scope. It seems to like to shoot the hollow point and the domed pellets from Crosman.

I have a Benjamin quest tactical air rifle 177 Is it the same gun

If you learn how to adjust the scope to POI you will be fine. Your iron sights shooting is good,

Well done girl. With the right pellet you will definitely shoot closer groups, even at further distances. One thing is certain. You will not make it with the supplied scope. Here in Europe most people are of the opinion that the optics are rubbish. A consolation. When you take the scope apart, you get two different magnifying glasses to read the fine print on some inserts or on packaging and plastic bottles.

The only negative on these is that safety near the trigger.

Funny enough mine is like that, can't get it to be dead accurate and it shoots a bit too the right, managed to get used to it though and I've hit plenty of shots

Elevation and windage sweetie! Not vertical and horizontal lol hey get a good Hawke scope on er and try some Air Arms 16 gr or JSB 15.89. I think you'll be super stoked! Ed da snippin backyard man pro💥💪😱

I got mine from Walmart for 100.00 And the one I bought is 1,000 to 1200 PSI

Sights def better than scopes especially those crosman scopes

Will this crosman air rifle .22 caliber pellet rifle will kill a snake

Some may not agree with what I'm saying. some scopes don't respond well, some scopes drift back after zeroing. But What I was starting to say and drifted myself. A break barrel is a terrible design(for accuracy). you break the plane or bridge from stock to the alignment of the barrel each time you reload/break. and slam it back shut., I don't care how good the machining is or was, that barrel is not perfectly re-aligned each time, and with wear... it gets worse, not terrible wear I know. but you know how a little doddle here makes inches off down range. Just give all that some thought... and a little fog or haze may clear. You might as well be putting the scope on "Anew" each time you break. They are great for kids, plinking and simple. But Precision... Hole in hole shooting,. they are not., but then again $128.00 Also... that slamming of the spring vrs true air is murder on some scopes. I ruined a Nikon 3x9x50 BDC on a Rugar "Springer" $300. learning mistake. Why was this guy running a high dollar scope on pellet especially bdc... optics, vision. clear viewing is why. I'm old... and I hate unresponsive cheap scopes(for me) My 1st pellet was a break barrel, And I'm 50+ playing with PCP's now. oh how times have changed..... Cheers

Had to shim the scope to get it to hit the target.

Hi could you tell me if the trigger is metal or poylmer?

Wow, a new pellet shot gun, 4-0 one pellet at a time

Is it spring or gas?

You forgot the FPS, chrony.

Red dot will do the trick.

Try the gamo swarm .22 10x...😊no reloads just cock and shoot 10 rounds $139.99

2.58😆

Nice I'm from india

A good job little Lady

😉👍🇳🇱

Crosman don't make that. Some Chinese company does. Crosman USE to make some great rifles. Back when they were still made in the usa.

Those premiere pellets are not very good in that gun

Haha chickens don't have arms, is that a nitro piston 2 ?

That is a club at best.

Can this kill a caiman o alligator if you hit it in the head?

Just me, but I'd spend the extra money and get a Gamo.

Looks just awful, that's a shame that Crosman has gone so cheap on the quality these days. Im surprised Abby didn't wrap that thing around a tree afterwards 🤣

7 inch groups at 15 yards is about right for a $120 walmart break barrel. Even the magic off camera group isn't anything to brag about at that distance, might as well throw darts. When you can tell they are trying to tiptoe around not saying anything bad about the sponsor, it doesn't reflect well on the validity of your other reviews.

I wouldn’t waste my money..

You are sooo beautiful! Can you grow your nails a bit longer! Oh the gun is cool.🙃

Thank you time is so short Romans 10:9-13

Break barrels are a total waste of money. Not accurate at all. Shot gun pattern.

Did you just smell a pellet gun' lol' Ok i can work with that', they get 615 fps after break in' a 14 g, crossman pellet, I have three of them one in 17, thats factory oil smokeing it go away few shots, you lock the single bolt mount at end of dovetail where it splits and tork it' the other mount has two bolts put in front...thats how ya do that without pictany rails., Braze the rings ya and scope, cut lines into them' with razor where the set on the scope so all four ya'...super reliable and duribiity, gives the 10/22 survival rifle a run for its money, five years or longer they last little maintenance...no shells no primers no gun powder, just add lead... most medium game the .22 never gave me any problems, better' for larger cridders than .17 in my opinion even tho .17 is faster- defend yourself with one yes, vary well can'...once I set a scope on one its good to go stays on target don't move at all' little extra work nothing major takes 20 min... In mountains nay go with stsge two gas nitro piston 2,,, in 29 fpe" for wolf or something .25 or .22, they don't make a shockwave in 25 .cal

Dude were you scratching your butt?

It's .22 not 22

I hate my crosman it's crap. My game is way better

nice)
