Just an update on that BSA. The accuracy is great. I tested the power today. The test is a bit relative. I used these really hard green oranges off of my tree and lined then up 3 deep.

If I pump my .177 Crosman 10 times it will penetrate 1 green orange come out the other side and make it half way through the 2nd orange with a pellet. When I shoot the new BSA in 22 cal it will clear 2 green oranges and half way through the 3rd. I repeated this test a few times with repeating results. ( I know not very scientific but relative). A .22 is only .043 larger than a .177 but the hole looks completely different. The .177 hole was hard to find on the skin. The .22 hole was easy to find on the way in and a good chunk on the way out. I think this satisfies me to give it a try on small yard game.
