i would like to see what was your best and worst air gun you ever had

[Dead-On]

Worst: That's easy, a Quest. Harsh and wickedly twangy and jumpy. Couldn't group worth a nickle.

Best: That's tough, depends on what you mean by "best". I've had a "Best" tuned HW97 and a Stingray. Best could also qualify as my P1. It was my first "adult" airgun and it is what got me on this slippery slope of airguns. Or best could mean the most accurate. That might be my USFT or R7 among others.

But to me "best" mostly means the easiest and most fun to use. That would probably be my Twinmaster... again, among others.

Best - Air Arms TX200 MkIII- right out of the box, shot great and looked beautiful. It's only money.
Worst - Gamo Whisper Deluxe. Master tuning could not help that one. Stop pin cut into the cheap riser/rail. Advertising got me.

Yeah , Jerry I got suckered by a Whisper too! ,Gamo make guns that look great but don`t live up to their looks (and now they are screwin` over BSA`s products....!!!)

  I know it's an older thread...
    I have 2 air rifles that I have shot one perfect group with each. That is, a group measuring 0" center to center from a bench at 10 yards out scoped. The rifles are a Remington Airmaster 77 and 4x32 scope using 3 pumps and Crosman Premier hollow points. The other is my Crosman Custom Shop 2400 carbine in .177 and a 4x32 scope shooting, believe it or not, Gamo Match pellets. These pellets may be 3+ years old. But between these two I'd say the Custom Shop carbine is the easier to get great groups with.

    The worst air gun I ever owned was two B3 Chinese under lever spring piston guns. The second was to replace the first one under warranty when it broke. Neither one could ever be considered even remotely consistent. Got rid of them. The worst I still own is a cheep Beeman take down springer rifle.I got one good group with that one of 3/16". But, again, no consistency. Just ordered a Daisy model 35, so the jury is out on that one. But see the thread, "Great BB Gun Shoot off". Decided I would like a smooth bore BB gun, so I can shoot BBs without worrying about damaging the rifling. Also could be used indoors for plinking at low power.

Worst = Slavia something .177. Too long ago to remember.
Best = Diana 50 Stutzen .22 

[Booger]

Best: TX200MK3, If I can not choose that one I will choose the RWS-34 that is being tuned right now.

Worst: Hands down my Benjamin Trail NP. My son's Daisy 880S shoots better than the Trail.

If I had it to do all over again I would only buy German, English, or my dream rifle (FX Independence).

[Cloud 9]

Best = Beeman HW97K in .177
Worst = Benjamin Trail NP .177

[Sheridan 74]

Best, my 1974 Sheridan Blue Streak, I have fun ringing the 6 inch gong at 50 yards.

Worst, my tool sale B3 under lever, no safety and I flinch everytime I stick my finger in the breech.

[egillman]

Best:  Crosman 622 CO2 pump repeater.  I got in in 1971 and still enjoy it today.
Runner-Up:  Crosman 99 lever repeater.  I just finished rebuilding one and it is a blast to shoot.
Worst:  Daisy 200 CO2 bb pistol.  It started leaking about a year after I got it.
Note:  I only own CO2 guns.  Call me weird.

my best air gun is a nice old hw-55 and the worse was a benjamin titan gp

Define best........LOL
For ME the best have been my HW77 or my several R9s (I've never had a bad R9).

Worst......I guess it would have to be the Crosman Quest 1000 bought years ago and a close "runner up" was the Gamo440 I bought to see if it was better than the Chicom copy of the Gamo220 (the Quest). Neither gun would group any tighter than 1" ctc at 30 yards, and the Quest required a BUNCH of tuning to get it to shoot 1" ctc from the 1 1/2" ctc grouping from the box. LOL.....I home tuned a $19.95 Cummins Truckload Sale Chicom B3 and it shot groups 1/2" the size of the Quest OR Gamo!

[mtsheron70]

Best.......hmmmm, this is hard to answer but really a couple which are all German of course except for the one PCP thrown in the mix.

Best-
HW97K .22 synthetic stock
Diana Model 34 beech wood stock in .177
Benjamin Marauder .25

Worst-
Benjamin Trail NP synthetic stock in .22

But if I could only have one of the three best it would be the HW97K in the end due to easy to use and reliable and needs nothing but human effort to cock it.
