Crosman

4.1

(16)

"Great little gun, no issues at all."

"Order a 1322 with the long steel breech."

"I would personally go with a multipump .22. Seneca dragonfly, crosman 362, crosman 1322 are all good options."

"It's pretty easy to use and break the barrell"

"Good old cross man 1322... splurge for a cheap 2-8x hunting scope."

4.8

(12)

"Weihrauch HW99 all day long."

"HW50S (HW99 in your neck of the woods) if you plan on doing some light hunting."

"My best springer is probably the hw97k in 22 cal, super accurate."

"My first recommendation would be the Weihrauch HW30S/Beeman R7 break barrel. Very accurate and easy to shoot well."

"Hw30, cause nothing come near it in quality, accurasy, and fun to shoot."

"Not the cheapest but I bought a Weihrauch HW99 for pest control purposes."

Diana

4.4

(10)

"Diana stormrider. I have it in .22 and it's a straight shooter."

"Confusingly accurate and dead silent with about 40 fpe (American). Never once had a jam, very reliably and I barely ever use it no leaks for years."

"Diana break barrel"

"A Diana 34 is at the top of your price range and it is well worth the price."

"If bolt action is good, diana chaser is an easy recommendation, and it takes Seneca Dragonfly mags."

"Diana Stormrider in .22 - PCP around 199$."

"Diana rws 34."

"The Diana Stormrider is a solid gun. It’s a PCP with a magazine."

"Diana stormrider. Sub $200, PCP, accurate to 100yrds."

"The Diana/rws 34 is another good option. More power but also harder to shoot."

"Gamo Swarm. 10 shot break barrel. Best $200 I've ever spent!"

"I can kill them with an $89 Gamo cadet Fox @450fps."

"Gamo swarm magnum or Hatsan 95 are pretty reliable choices."

"I like the Gamo, the magazine makes for quick reloading."

"I’ve had decent luck with Gamo."

"I got the silent cat air rifle, it’s a .177 game break barrel."

"I'm shooting the Gamo Black Knight now."
