What's your favorite airgun?

My .25 FX Impact MK2. No mods, just tweaked to give me a solid 65 ft lbs with the 34 grain JSBs. 

Last week another of my rifles stood atop the pack. However, after doing overtime -- on the graveyard shift, no less -- eradicating pest raccoons (3) and 'possums (4) this week alone, this powerful and accurate Taipan Veteran Long .25 caliber has separated itself from the crowd.

Outfitted with the NiteSite Viper and an infrared light, this rifle wreaks havoc on any wayward, night-raiding vermin.

 

Crown .25 (w/ 600mm slug “A” liner)

JSB MK1 or MKII 33.95 grain - 950 fps = 68.05 fpe

Nielsen Specialty HP Slugs 33.5 grain - 940fps = 65.74 fpe

Leads my collection!

The EdGun R5M STD .177 is an amazing platform. With the 15.5 grn NSA slugs it simply rocks

AGT Uragan Compact 1.77

Accurate, amazing shot count, shoulders nicely and really fun to shoot. 

I love all six of on air rifles but if I had to pick one it would be me .22 Red Wolf HP. Super accurate with three different pellets, one at each power setting. Very versatile.

My favorite is without a second thought my .20 Theoben. It gets a lot of shots per fill. It’s tremendously accurate and has a superb trigger set at 4 oz. Here’s the best group of my life, 130 yards. This is a dream rifle. Sorry that the squirrel is in the picture. Only one I had.

For me your stipulations make it impossible to specify because my favorite is the one from my large "Harem" that is currently in my arms and this can change monthly, weekly, daily or even several times per day! My relationship with my wife is strictly monogamous but with my airguns it is entirely polygamous!

Springer fan here......and my favorite is my .177 hw97k.

For me my deadly Compatto .22, slim, light, handles nicely in the field, not pellet fussy, very, very accurate. It led to my current rig the Sniper HR, but is still my favorite.

Isn't that what keeps it fun. You don't have that one gun you keep coming back to?

No I don't. Although some guns get neglected for periods of time there is no favorite I can think of that I always return to. I tend to switch guns with different task and if the current favorite fails to perform well. Sometimes the gun I want to shoot is not the gun I need to shoot for best performance at that particular time !

Come on Tp3ranch, play along, we all “know” there can’t be only one. Pick one for this thread, your other PCPs don’t have to know.

ben marauder 25, af Talondor 22, rws 54 22, hw90 22...

ok i'll play. if i could only choose one it would be... .22 Brocock Contour S6. it doesn't get a lot of shots per fill (18), isn't very powerful (15 fpe) or doesn't have an adjustable trigger, but it's put meat on the table time and time again. dead on accurate out to 40 yards, not pellet fussy, light weight, short enough to carry in a backpack, and it can be easily be filled with a hand pump. it's great in a barn or in thick stuff and in 3 years it's never failed. 

Aloha All,

like T3PRanch it’s hard to just pick 1. With all of my guns it depends on what I’m doing, pesting or hunting. But I guess to play along nicely with others, I have to say my Charlie tuned cricked in .25 shooting 34gr @ 980 fps. 

Aloha,

RAW before merger with Airforce 

Steyr Hunting 5 Semi auto .22. So much so it’s the only gun I own. Sold my other one because it wasn’t getting used at all, and it was a high end airgun in it’s own right. The Steyr has never had a hiccup and the only mod I did was install a lighter trigger spring. That would’ve been my only complaint but now it’s silky smooth at less than a pound of pull. Now I have to use the safety now and again but it’s worth the amazing trigger. 50-60 shots per fill. Anything within 100 yards is toast. Now the semi auto function is two fold. First having multiple kills on a group of ground squirrels is downright exhilarating. But at greater distances, any slight misses are quickly rectified with an adjusted follow up shot. It’s relatively light, shoulders easily, and has a great ergonomic pistol grip. On my deadshot anything within 150 yards isn’t safe. But carrying it into the field for a stalk is a dream. I carry an adjustable shooting stick and she points effortlessly for 75 yards or so. I have made a109 yard squirrel with the unsupported stick. For further distances I’ll need a tree to brace on or go prone. I just have so much fun with her that I must admit I look at other air rifles for maybe shooting slugs, but then I go back out with her shootin squirrels and I’m back in love. Just writing this makes me anxious to go out again!
