I don't know that there's crud in the barrel, I just would've guessed. After holding the lead pellets, I have lead all over my fingers, I presumed you wouldn't want that in your barrel!

Thanks everyone. I've found a rifle shooting club nearby, gunna give them a ring tomorrow!

Ahh, I have been using the furry cleaning attachment on my bisley cleaning kit. Not very regularly, probably 3 or 4 times, just in and out to drag out any crud. http://www.targetairweapons.co.uk/acatalog/Bisley-Kit-1A.jpg ^^ that's the kit I use, the furry attachment. I think I'll stop using it now then! Thanks for the replies.

Ok, I've looked at stuff for getting a firearms certificate and it seems might complicated! I've contacted my local target shooting place to ask if I can pop in and chat with them first, seems I don't know enough yet! I am wanting to do some plinking with my air rifle somewhere a little quieter, as I sometimes feel I may be annoying neighbours by plinking in my back yard, it isn't the loudest of air rifles, but nobody wants to hear tin cans bouncing around all day!

Hey all! I own a QB 78 air rifle, shooting pointed .22 lead pellets. I maintain the exterior with silicone gun oil, but I seem to have lost the gun oil that I used to "lube" the barrel!

Hi guys thanks for the warm welcome. My air rifle fires at around 10 Ft/Lbs, it's the QB 78 if that helps! I'd love to hunt with it but I'm not sure if it'd be powerful enough. I think I'd like to start hunting with proper rifles! How do I go about starting this? I am 18, so I believe I am of legal age to own a rifle, but that's about as far as my knowledge goes! I live down a street with quite a few houses, so not very rural! Just looking for advice on where to start, where I can look for local hunting clubs etc!

Hi, my name is Sam, I'm interested in starting hunting, so I found this forum! The only rifle (if you can even call it that) experience I have is with a .22 air rifle plinking tin cans and the like in the back yard! Nice too see such a large community!
