Air Arms ProSport .177 Beech

Medium Power, Underlever, Spring Rifle

	Elegant Design and Look
	Field Target Competition Accuracy

The Beech ProSport is regarded by many as the best spring operated rifle available. The model comes in a standard format normally associated with a highly tuned rifle. This includes features such as a 12 groove Lothar Walther barrel and a multi-adjustable two-stage trigger which make this gun a real winner. In addition, synthetic bearings provide tuned "out of the box" performance. And last, but not least, the ProSport has an ergonomically designed, high combed, beautiful beech sporter stock.

The ProSport lives up to its reputation as a superb, well-built air rifle in .177 and .22 caliber. The rifle is smooth and quiet with plenty of power for any task from field target in .177 caliber to pest control and hunting in .22 configuration. The stock is heavy but balances beautifully which makes it a stable shooting platform.

The velocity results will convince most people that the rifle has more than enough power to handle any shooting situation. We were quite pleased not only with the velocity in both calibers but also with the smooth firing nature of the rifle.

It is no wonder that the ProSport has such a good reputation for quality and accuracy in the airgunning community and is the airgun of choice for many field target competitors.
