well, this a good question, and took a bit of thinking. LOL, like any good question should.
Worst_ Winchester 1000x. Things had a 45 lbs trigger pull. Funky looking machine marks etc etc. Yes they can be fixed up. But Im talking stock guns, best-worse.
Best_ HW97k in .20! Thing makes me smile just talking about it.

The best has been my little old Diana GEM. Simple little smoothbore springer from before WWI. The worst, hands down, was a Daisy CO2 rifle. Don't recall the model number but it was the one with the helical pellet clip. I still recall sitting on the steps, fumbling pellets into that clip - what a PITA! Then I took it out for a test. Third shot, the barrel liner went down range. I could have exchanged it for another but instead got my money back.

Best is an AirForce talon SS, which came out of the box perfect, worst was a beautiful gamo extreme, which had an awesome stock, light weight and powerful but on account of that darned plastic barrel/breech lockup was doomed to be impossibly inaccurate.

Guys I don't think it's fair for you all to compare a springer to a cheap multi pump bb gun. MO.

Best; one of the high end PCPs. That’s like asking which of your kids your love best.
Now worst is easy, Gamo Whisper or was it the RWS 350M that shot accurately but was a scope eater. No it was the Whisper. Gave it away before it had 400 shots threw it and only one shot threw it after the GRT trigger up grade.
