What is the best spring piston air gun?
November 9th, 2008
I want to buy a spring piston air gun but have no idea which gun to buy. I want to use it for hunting rabbits, foxes etc. And i don’t want a crappy cheap gun.
For the price of a truly good spring piston, you can get a PCP, which doesn't wear you out c0cking it, nor has the heavy recoil.

I'd go for the .22 version for hunting.

I would not recommend fox hunting with a spring piston air rifle to any but an expert. >An expert that must hunt fox with an air rifle because he has no other option
This one is capable though.

There are many great small game, air rifles.

The .458 LA Outlaw(over 500fpe) is a powerful air rifle capable of taking large game.

go to adventuresinairguns.com and let randy know what your looking for, hear he is an honest dealer and very knowledgeable! most magnum springers are just to harsh, but the rws350 is one of the best!! id go with a mid power springer for up to bunnies and get a pcp for the bigger stuff! or get a sumatra or aa410 and be able to adjust the power with each shot!
