    Rws 350 magnum on special at AOA it appears to be .177 only looks like they have it in .22 but not on sale  never ordered from them so no idea about that however looks like a good deal on a magnum springer if your into them

The 350 .177 has been on sale for almost a month now.  I would make sure they are not blemished or dinged though.

A lot of people order from AoA and most don't encounter any problems.

Just checked and appears as though the .177 is "in stock".  I have one in .22 cal and absolutely love the gun.  I have no interest in getting one in .177 but if I did I wouldn't hesitate to order from AOA.  I've  bought several guns from them over the years and never had any problems at all.  The  heavier .177 pellets would work very well in that gun and would be a small/medium game nightmare

You got that right Jeff.  The RWS Supermag 9.3gr "wadcutter" is very accurate with my 350 .177.  This pellet was designed for the RWS Magnum springers.  It dropped a large possum in its tracks with a passthrough shot to the head, and I think I took a raccoon with it as well.  It's a very capable flat shooting hunter that can take up to and including coyote. 

Mine shoots the Supermag 9.3gr very accurately and consistently.  It shoots them well over 900fps (935fps avg. IRCC) and I prefer the faster 9.3gr over the slower Crosman 10.5gr and JSB 10.3gr.  It's a hammer.  It penetrates wood as deep or deeper than my 42fpe Mrod .25 with JSB 25.4 Kings.  I can't even get a passthrough on a G-hog with the wider .25 pellets in the Mrod, but the faster narrower .177 pellets will go through any critter with ease.

If my PCP's were not so quiet with shrouds I 'd be using my 2 350's a lot more.

You guys are costing me money!

I've had one of these on my wish list for a while and at this price I succumbed to the temptation.

Thanks OP (I think..... )

[longislandhunter]

You made a sound choice John, enjoy your new shooter 

I'd be pulling the trigger on one as well but  I recently spent what $ I had squirreled away 

Anyway, enjoy and let us know how it shoots

Will do Jeff. I really like the Diana's I have and hoping the 350 will be another good shooter.

I think it's time to "thin the flock" and sell many of the lesser and redundant AG's and keep the best. I'm running out of room to put them!

Cheers,

John

We aim to enable... umm.. please   You are not a true airgun enthousiast unless you are running out of room to store them

All I can tell you is I have more than 50 guns (AG+PB's) but that's a small fraction of what Jeff has

Good luck with your new 350 and join the club!

Yep Harry, I know Jeff quit listing his collection because the GTA website doesn't have enuf bandwidth.....

The recent Diana 350 is #30. I think I'll cull it down to the Frauleins, PCP's and a few of the oddballs that I like ('Dan Bluestreak, Norica Black Eagle etc.).

Cheers,

John

[only1harry]

Not enough storage either
I don't think Jeff has ever listed any of his airguns.  I am actually surprised that he doesn't own a 350 .177, and I do   I have been keeping an unofficial count for 10 years now whenever I find out Jeff bought another gun, but there is no way that I am revealing the estimated number.  People wouldn't believe me anyway, and that's only the ones I know of

Jeff, have you considered contacting the Book of World Records to see if you qualify?

Just kidding buddy!

 If I was in the market for a magnum springer I think this would be a great bargain

 I'm not in the market for a magnum springer  Am I ?? 😎😎😎

Packard 8 let us know how it shoots when u get it going  looks like a great gun for the price

Harry, I must admit that my collection has indeed taken on a life of it's own over the years, but I can honestly say that I truly do cherish every single one of my shooters and just can't seem to part with any of them     I keep telling myself that I need to start selling off some of them but I just can't seem to bring myself to do it.  I take out a gun I haven't shot for a very long time with the intention of selling it and then when I start shooting it in the backyard range to make sure it's still working I fall in love with it all over again     

As for not having a 350 in .177 cal ,,,,,,,  I may just have to go ahead and order one now because it's just not right that you have one and I don't

I have a diana T05 350 in .177, hoped there was a slim chance they would be T06

It isn't clear from the AoA website if this is a T05 or T06. I have 2 Dianas with the T05 trigger and they shoot fine.

Jeff, I am exactly the same way.  I really like the ones I have and can't bring myself to sell any of them.  "Cherish" is the right word you used.  Most of my Springers are pro-tuned and shoot much better than stock, making it even harder to part with them. 
I sold my .270 and a couple of other PB's a few years ago and I still miss those guns and regretted selling them.  I even miss my 870 12ga.  But then I have come to recognize the fact that I can't shoot all of the guns I currently have, and that a very long time goes by before I can shoot every single one, so I made the decision to start selling the ones that I don't shoot as often.  I will probably start selling some PB's and work my way to a few airguns.  My only fear is that I might start buying new guns again when I see that I have room in the safes.  Ultimately I think I want to go down to 10 airguns and 10 or 12 PB's, or have less than half of what I have now and use part of most of 1 of the safes to store a good amount of ammo.  Easier said than done   I have nightmares thinking about selling just 1 gun   It was very hard for me to part with a few PB's 7-8 years ago so that I could make room for more airguns.

BTW, I knew that you couldn't hold out long on a good sale Jeff   It would be interesting to see if it's the older model with the TO5 trigger or the "newer" one with the T06.  I own Dianas with both TO5 & T06 and can't really tell the difference.  They are both very nice triggers.  If it's T05 that would mean that these 350's have been sitting in AOA's warehouse for a few years and the metal or bluing may not be in good shape, or could have surface rust.  If it were me I would call AoA to make sure the 350's on sale have the T06 to ensure I am getting a gun that hasn't been sitting in a cold or damp room for a long time without fresh oil.

My D48 & D52 are T05 and my D34 is T06 and I don't see any difference, both are good triggers. I wouldn't worry about the rifles being T05 and sitting in the warehouse for a few years (especially in AZ). I have several Hatsans with mfg dates as far back as 2012 that were bought new in the past few years and they look like they just came off the factory floor. I'll have to wait and see which model this is so I can order the correct droop/scope mount...the T05 and T06 mounts are different.

called them and verified they are the T05,  I have a few  T05's and like the  the trigger, Or I just wanted to tell myself I need  to order another one.

Took delivery of one of these from AoA last week. It was as new and pretty as any RWS/Diana I have bought. T05 trigger. I am taking it on a camping trip this week to break and sight in. Not much of a .177 cal guy, but it was a great deal.
