Got the M60B in .30 cal from Wes. A few concerns over receiving the rifle. All cleared up with a simple phone call to Wes. Excellent service. Purchased the rifle as more of a project rifle. Got a simple base line of factory settings with the adjustable regulator. Not the simplest to adjust since Snow Peek changed from an Allen wrench to a blade style screw driver. Yet not a deal breaker once you find the right size and length of driver that works. Where you don't have to remove the bottle. The anodizing and machining is quite well done for a budget rifle. With a bit of fooling around the trigger can be adjusted to a very nice 1st to 2nd stage with minimal creep without the wire mod upon the net. Intial accuracy straight from the box with no cleaning of the bbl or change of factory settings yielded 30 to 34mm groups @ 28yrds (most space I have at home) with a variety of .30 cal pellet and slugs that I had on hand. Respectable low 800's for with light weight pellets and high 700's with mid to heavy pellets. Heavy slugs (swaged from suppliers and hand casted) from 50 to 70 as expected lows of 660fps and up. Dlug length of 8.9 mm being the longest in the factory mag. The Mapleleaf after market mags can handle 9.21mm hand casted 70gr BBT solid slugs just fit and cycled very well. Thank you Wes. Stay tuned for I will be tearing down this rifle and making modifications to tune power and longer range accuracy . For this budget Bullpup has excellent potential at shooting both pellet and slugs.
Just a quick addition to my review. A quick tweak of the regulator brought the FPS up to 645 on average and can certainly go up to the advertised 650. My thinking is to keep it bellow the max to give the regulator a chance to work well, and it does. The rail which I thought was too high, is actually perfect. Running a dot, laser and/or flip-up irons and this gun is pure plinking joy. I just wanted to clarify that the stated maximum speed for the gun as 650 is with lead 81gr pellets. With lighter FX Hybrid slugs I'm sure it can top out at over 700fps. The best part of this rifle is how consistent it shoots. No regrets. It's a plinker's dream. The snowpeak .35 pellets are cheap too, and work just fine.
Adjustable regulator, adjustable trigger, compact bullpup form factor, lightweight, metal magazines. Out of the box the .357 was lobbing 81gr pellets at 615fps. Give or take 10 fps, it stays consistent. It's also very quiet compared to other big bore rifles like the Kral Big Horn. I won't take any stars off, but I did try to remove the bottle while pressurized and I'm not certain that with the changes made to the platform, that this feature is accurate, since I blew an o-ring doing this and depressurized the cylinder completely. Since there's a fill probe on this version, my advice is: Leave the bottle on the gun or you'll need o-rings. Another thing is that the picatinny rail isn't as low profile as my gut would want it, but it's a solid rail and begs for a good red dot. The smaller caliber versions of the M60B might benefit most from a scope, but since this isn't exactly a monster in terms of fpe in .357, the red dot works fine for 0-50 yard plinking work. You can adjust the regulator for more power, but this might lead to a drop in speed consistency, which is critical for target shooting. Regulated big bore is the path to accuracy, since consistent FPS matters at 50 yards. I'm very happy with this purchase. I would NOT consider the .357 a hunting rifle due to the low range, but the smaller calibers, such as .22, maybe.
