Over the decades I never wanted to own a co2 air rifle. They just never took my fancy. Not only not wanting a Co2 rifle, I most certainly would never consider buying a Chinese made air rifle.
Well I happened to be browsing the net and came across the Chinese made Artemis CR600W Co2 .22 rifle. From the pictures it looked a nice looking gun, so I did more research and discovered some very good write ups. The manufacturer even got a great write up in the Hard Air online magazine. I never realised that they were most likely the largest manufacturer of airguns in the world.
Having done all this reading, and noting the the price of the Artemis was very competitive I decided to bury my prejudices and purchased the gun.
It arrived today and my first impression is very favourable. The packaging was excellent. The finish on the metal work and stock is very good.
The proof on whether or not I wasted my money, will be in how accurate the gun is. Over the coming days I will test it out and let you know. First up though I need to buy some .22 pellets and some Co2 12g cylinders.
