I just bought myself a diana model 24 t05 .22 cal spring action air rifle.
Extremely accurate (1/2" at 25 yards) and powerful enough to do serious damage to a steel t fal frying pan.
with the 4x dianawerk rastatt zielfernrohr scope it is an amazing pest control/small game rifle.
It was expensive but I love it

Too bad you didn't make it yourself so that your post would belong here.

This is supposed to be airsoft/bb/pellet discussion, true it is basically all homebuilt here but i feel it is still relevant, I would love to see one of these homemade paintball 'snipers' or bbmgs punch a beercap at 25 yards everytime.
Also i am sure many people here are into air rifles, and given my vast experience with pellet guns, I felt this was a rifle that should be highly recommended, as it is the nicest springer i've ever fired

I'm glad you like your new rifle, and i beleave you posted in proper place. No offence, but 1/2" at 25 yards really isn't all that accurate. When i was 11 years old, (39 now), i had a Daisy 760 Powerline 10 pump with open sites that could do the same at 50 yards, no brag, just fact. Again i mean no offence. How much did you pay for it?

If you look around you will see that all storebought guns (mainly paintball guns) fall into off-topic.

Fine, I don't give a fuck what you post where you post it!

Spudstuff like you have room to talk, go fuck off!

Carl go bitch at your cat or something not him. He did nothing wrong. The forum section is the proper place.

The 1/2" groups were fired offhand standing,
the gun is capable of more, but I'm no Carlos Hathcock

Thats great! my benjamin is good and all but i like the real guns more that can shoot 1/2 in groups at 100 yards which i have achieved once with a .17 HMR. Make a bi-pod for it so you can see what it can really do.
