If this rifle isn’t very good, please make a suggestion I want a good air rifle, that is accurate, and powerful, but also something that doesn’t cost too much(under $300). I plan on using it for target shooting and small game shooting. Thanks.
This is somewhat of a tricky question to answer. First, are you comparing this rifle to any others? Is it good for the price? Is it accurate? Also, you must take into account what you want to get out of the rifle.
From my experience (I recently purchased this rife), for the price, the rifle is an exceptional value. In it’s price range, there is little to compare when you want the most ‘bang for your buck’. It will rocket out .177 pellets at 1200 fps, and faster (depending upon the pellet you wish to use). The rifle is very sturdy, rather large/long, and seemingly well built. I put about 200 pellets through the rifle on its first day in my hands. The first thing I had to do was remove all the oil and grease which accompanied it. But, if you’re a regular rifle collecter and shooter, you’ll be familiar with that type of inital cleaning. The first few rounds expelled some oil with the shot, but after about 30 rounds or so, things leveled out. The scope needed to be sighted in, and it only took about three rounds for that. Then, it was just all fun. It’s a little louder than some other air rifles, but the louder sound can be attributed to the fact that you’re pushing lead faster than the speed of sound. The rifle comes with adjustable buttplates (very typical of Wather arms). The rifle is marked Walther, but it’s made in Turkey, not Germany. Slightly disappointing, but I have years of experience with Walther firearms, and if they put their name on a product, I’m sure they’ll stand by it. The scope isn’t a Walther (which I found interesting), but it’s a pretty good one for an air rifle of this caliber (pun intended). After shooting the rifle, I was very satisfied. It was very accurate, and it shot about every type of different pellet I gave it. The trigger pull was fair. Slightly ‘mushy’ at first, but it has a clean break when it goes off. I’ve been told, by the dealer I bought the rifle from, that it’s very good for varmint shooting.
If you’re comparing it to rifles of similar price, I believe the Wather is a great value, and won’t disappoint. If you’re looking for something with Walther Olympic accuracy…this isn’t it. You should spend the three grand to get that rifle. If you want something that’s pretty darn powerful, then this is a great value too. There aren’t too many air rifles out there at this price, which will give you up to 1400 fps with a lightweight .177 pellet! If you want something that’s solid, and will seeminly last you for years of enjoyment. This rifle won’t disappoint. After all, it’s a Walther.
i want a pellet rifle sturdy and accurate that good for small game hunting what kind should i get ohh and i want it to be affordable!
>>What pellet rifle would be good for small game hunting. I want it to be affordable.<<
It depends on how much you want to spend? What’s "affordable" to you?

***IMO, the "Diana" RWS 34 is the best "value" air rifle in the world. You get a high quality, powerful, accurate, durable, spring piston sporter that will last several lifetimes. When your kids hand the 34 down to their kids, it will still be a great rifle. The 34 comes with a lifetime warranty and since the Dianawerks has been building quality airguns since 1890 there is a real good chance they will be around to stand behind that warranty.

The RWS 34 can take small game(rabbit, squirrel) out to around 45 yards*.

He takes a jackrabbit at 44 yards, with one shot to the head.
AIr rifles are like fingerprints, every one of them is different. Even if you and I had the exact same rifle, there is a good chance they would prefer different pellets.
Domed pellets are "generally" the best for hunting purposes.
Good quality pellets at a reasonable cost.

Do they make an air pistol in .22 caliber? Because all I can find is .177.
Yes, there are .22 caliber air pistols
The most powerful .22 caliber pistol I know of is the Evanix Hunting Master AR6, which is a very powerful PCP(1,000fps) - The AR6 also has a 6 round capacity -
The Benjamin EB22 is a fairly powerful CO2(500fps)
The Benjamin HB22 is a multi-pump pneumatic(460fps)
The Crosman 2240 is a CO2(460fps)
The Webley Typhoon is a relatively low powered spring piston pistol(330fps)
The Beeman/Weihrauch P1 .177 is my fav air pistol, and while they don’t have a .22 it does come in .20 caliber.

I wanna get a good gun under $100.00 US dollars i live in the forest and it’s summer i wanna hunt i limit is $100.00 US dollars and also i have a UTG Sniper rifle used once with a scope i,am willing to trade for a good air rife or bb gun
That can shoot bb’s and pellets
If you want to be able to switch between BBs and pellets, then your best option is the Crosman 2100 (AKA Remington Airmaster 77). It delivers around 9 ft-lbs of muzzle energy with pellets and is accurate enough for hunting out to 25 yards or so. Since rabbit only takes 5 ft-lbs of impact energy to kill… 25 yards sounds about right. The Crosman 2100 costs between $60 and $75 dollars depending on where you get it.
If you are willing to just get a pellet gun, you could pick up a Crosman Phantom/Quest for around $90 if you shop around. At 12-13 ft-lbs of muzzle energy (8 grain pellet at about 800-850 fps) its got enough energy to kill rabbits out to around 30 yards and should be accurate enough to kill rabbits at that distance if you practice a bit. The only downside to that gun is that it won’t be as durable as a Crosman 2100. (Cheap springers tend to wear out quickly.)
Personally I’d get the Crosman 2100, but then I like pump pneumatics. If you don’t like the thought of pumping the gun 10 times between shots, then get the Phantom/Quest.
I was wondering can i make a bb/air soft gun from a cap gun and if so/ or not can you explain how?
Here’s interesting video that shows the steps on building your own air gun.
