Hey guys , long time no seee !
I am wondering what these cannon pneumatic air rifles are like from Youngs Airguns.
Basically want to plink with it and maybe take down a rabbit or magpie.
Has anyone heard anything positive about these guns.
thanks

I've heard of them, and a guy I know does a bit of bunny bashing with one.

It would be interesting to line one up with the Crosman 362 as a comparison.

They are apparently a poorer copy of a Sharp Innova. The Webley Rebel was also based on the Innova.

Positives reviews of the Innova and Rebel on GTA

And you can still buy spares for the Innova:

They are a copy of the Sharp Innova, in fact I think the valves are even interchangable if you have an innova with faulty valve.

They are apparently much poorer quality, I second Pauly's suggestion of the Crosman 362 - they get excellent power from a few pumps, and very modular like the 2240/2250 so you can add the steel breech etc.

Get a nice pcp, like as Air Arms or a Weihrauch, you won’t regret it!
