Last friday I ordered a .22 48 refurb from Umarex ($225) shipped. Received it wednesday.
It has a small scratch on the stock. Big deal. This is a work horse, work of art, hard hittin, don't wanna put it down airgun. The front sight is a little fat. My name is PJ and I am an airgun addict.
PJ Welcome to the form. Its good to here your addited to the sport . The 48 is ussually a good shooter and I m glad your happy with your purchase . I have a 46 and its a very good rifle. Niether are the magnum type but both have proven themselves to get the job done in the past. Marvin
ordered it by impulse because it is a fixed barrel. I have it with a bipod, Vortex muzzel break, Dampa mount from Sports Match and a Barska 3-12 x 40 scope, she is heavy but reliable
have the 34, 40 and 460 (all in .22 cal.) but the 48 is the one besides the 34 that I shoot the most. pretty finicky with pellet selection but a brute of an airgun
you made a wise selection with the 48 PJ and he will not disappoint you

PS: I did not break in the 48, it still shoots the same way as the first pellet
and remember "it's 30% the gun and 70% the shooter"
