A bit unusual of a choice, but I have had decent results from my Crosman SBD .22. Fairly punchy, easy to cock, and quiet, but I have only shot it with iron sights. Really need to scope it.
Nibs ain't as bad as JC, but JC also says he won't post a video if the product is garbage. SpringPistonRifleFever seems the most honest, Oh Shoot is pretty honest too. Off The Shelf Airguns seems the best of the "I don't modify" channels.
It's a crap shoot with lower-priced scopes on springers. Might last a lifetime of fairly heavy shooting, might fail in less than half a tin of pellets. Probably worth a try.
Only watch YouTube, but Off The Shelf Airguns, SpringPistonRifleFever, Oh Shoot, Walnut and Steel, and Tyrone McLaren (AfricanBudgetAirgunner) are pretty good.
