The Gamo Whisper Fusion Pro has a lot to live up to; including Gamo’s claim that it is one of the “quietest” air rifles you can buy thanks in part to a “patented double integrated noise dampening technology.” But what’s the real story on the Whisper Fusion Pro and, ultimately, is it worth the money?

The Gamo Hunter Extreme has garnered lots of attention from shoppers looking for the next best spring-piston rifle, but there is not much consensus out there about its value, which begs the question: is this yet just another sexy model that fails to live up to its lofty price tag? In usual fashion, we cut […]

Top Value COMBO for $200 – Browning Leverage

Rick Butcher — Wed, 18 Jun 2014 00:13:22 +0000

While there are many good air rifles under $200, we can think of no air rifle combo that brings the same level of performance, quality and value as the Browning Leverage. Ironically, it’s also hard to think of another combo that is less publicized! Indeed, at a time when air rifle advertising is particularly fierce […]

Editor’s Pick For $400 – Diana RWS 48 / T06 Trigger

Rick Butcher — Fri, 13 Jun 2014 21:02:17 +0000

There are many, many great air rifles you can buy for $400 or less; however, in our view, none can compare to the total package that is the Diana RWS 48 with the T06 Trigger. And while it may not always be available for $400 or less, when you can get it for this price, […]

Beeman R9 / HW95 – An Uber-Accurate Springer!

Rick Butcher — Wed, 11 Jun 2014 20:21:42 +0000

The Beeman R9 (aka Weihrauch HW95) is considered by many to be one of, if not the most accurate spring-piston air rifle you can get for under $500. And although we can’t confirm that claim, we’d be hard-pressed to disprove it too! In any case, there is no denying that this is a world-class, elite […]

Crosman Optimus .22 – Extreme Value Pick

Rick Butcher — Mon, 02 Jun 2014 19:23:53 +0000

There are many air rifles that provide great value for their respective price point, but what we wanted was a model that provides rare, unusual…no – truly extreme value relative to the field. To clear this high bar, the rifle had to be exceptionally affordable, yet still provide good power, accuracy and a build that […]

Ultimate Springer – RWS 54 Air King

Rick Butcher — Mon, 05 May 2014 18:04:18 +0000

I must admit, if I could afford a new springer right now, it would be the Diana RWS 54 Air King. RWS is unquestionably one of the most lauded air rifle makers of all time, and the RWS 54 is one of their nicest models available in my opinion. No, they are definitely not cheap, […]

Top Air Rifle Under $300 – Diana RWS 34 w/T06 Trigger

Rick Butcher — Sun, 20 Apr 2014 21:23:25 +0000

Upon getting into the hobby, it’s natural to get sucked into fixating on various specifications when comparing air rifles, especially sexy metrics like velocity and FPE. However, after a while, most air rifle enthusiasts inevitably begin focusing more on overall quality, durability and accuracy, rather than muzzle energy or, even less importantly, how fast a […]

If you are looking to maximize velocity, muzzle energy and downrange hitting power for your buck, then you just can’t beat the overall value you get with the Ruger Air Magnum Combo.
