Probably just got a good one, but it was uncanny accurate.
Found it ... a model 622.

I had a circa 1970 Crosman 1400 .22 Pumpmaster I bought used in '74. Pneumatic pump gun, about 800 FPS and had a Weaver 4x scope on it. Very accurate, very powerful. Used it for squirrel hunting and it was very effective. Crosman made some very high quality air rifles back then. Still have the Sheridan Blue Streak that I got used in '76 (it's a '72 model) and it still shoots great with the Williams peep sight.
