I think that's like asking which is the best make and model of car.... or best make and model semi-auto 9mm pistol.... or the best guitar.... or watch.... or doohickey. 
It depends on what you plan to do with it. What are your purposes for the rifle?

Also include your budget. Don't forget to think about your ammo and air supply. This hobby can get very expensive, very quickly!

True, but when you're new to this, you don't know that. It's a fair question for a new person. I was that person not too long ago.

Mine is!
Depends on what you want to do!
some days I want to blast the steel plates on the next hill over and its the panthera or drs.
some days i want to bust up some clay, and i get the k1 or gk1 out for some fast action.
some days in want some easy relaxed shooting, and the revere comes out.

There really isnt a best overall. Are you just curious what peoples opinions are? Or are you doing research because you are in the market for one? Need more details as to what the gun is for....Hunting? Pesting? Targets? Benchrest? Full size? Compact? Lightweight? Budget? Slugs? Pellets? Caliber? Under $1k or over $2k
My most accurate and consistent gun is my rti mora .25 cal 600mm. It shoots pellets and slugs, I typically shoot 60gr slugs. Its a well designed heavy duty gun.

This is one of those posts that has responses all over creation. Better post would be “what do you think is the best pcp gun for”:
Hunting
Competition targeting
Plinking/ fun
Budget or big bucks?
You’ll get much more meaningful responses.

Well, obviously the best PCP is the first (and only, so far) air rifle that I got a few months ago... Benjamin Marauder with Lothar barrel.

General Hunting = AGT Vixen
Urban Pest Control = Agt Uragan 2 Compact
Best Back Packing carbine Brocock Ranger ( for short trips) or Brocock Pathfinder (for longer trips)
Long Distance Target and Posing BRK Ghost
More money than brains anything Daystate or Steyr

….is the one that puts a smile on your face most often.
If you’re asking because you are looking for your first one, then this is like asking what’s the best oil for my car. If this is the case, I’d say the best air rifle to start off with might be a springer. If you can master one of them, a pcp or a multi-pump will be even easier to shoot. If you insist on starting with a pcp, then there’s some factors to think about. 1. Ease of maintenance (because no matter what brand it is, it’s going to fail on you. Now some are more prevalent in this area than others. The more Orings, the more chances of failure. I’m gonna say this for the record. If you’re starting out brand new and it’s gotta be a pcp, I’d recommend a Benjamin Marauder. It’s a very solid and proven platform. If money is no object, then an American Air Arms is probably one of the most robust and reliable brands you can buy.
2. If you wanna be able to infinitely tune til your hearts delight then an FX, Daystate (electronic) or Karma are amongst today’s top shelf tuning guns.
3. What are your plans with the platform? Plinking, hunting, competition, all three?
4. Budget???
5. Shooting environments and local laws.

Yes, but the word best should be eliminated from the English language. It’s a shortcut word and the best of anything is generally subjective. Now you want to know who makes a good airgun, car, truck pressure washer, etc, that’s easier to answer and give someone some stuff to ponder. Best sets expectations way too high.

I will say if you can afford it and want a accurate dependable out the box air rifle the day state Revere in 22 is a hard to beat rifle I have 2 one in 177 one in 22 they both put ten shots under a dime at thirty yards consistently and both are regulated
