Welcome Kent!

Good to have you! Especially one of Tim's friends. We hope you hang around for a while if you are serious about getting a Diana rifle.

Everyone loves their 350 I think.. including myself You could look at it as the "best bang for the buck", if it's break-barrels you prefer. All Dianas are pretty good.

You will like the 350 even more after a basic tune which is highly recommended. A little too much gun for small or regular sized birds, but if they 're way out there, or it's crows or fur you 're after, the 48/52, 350 or 460 is the gun for you, except the 350 is the only break-barrel of the "Magnum bunch".

I say enjoy what you shoot. Everyone has their own opinions about one thing or another. Dianas are good airguns and you should be able to shoot really well with them.

About the only thing I would recommend is getting a pellet sampler from Straightshooters or B&B Supply. Two local airgun dealers in Minnesota who I know personally and recommend.

Airgun barrels can be rather pellet fussy. Start out with the domed pellets like the JSB, RWS and Crosman Premier pellets. It takes about twenty to forty shots to "lead" the barrel before a given pellet will reach its best accuracy per the barrel its being fed into.

What Gamo you got there Kent?

April 28 2008, 5:38 PM 

some can be made to shoot really nice. Biggest weakness is the trigger. An aftermarket GTX makes a big difference. http://charliedatuna.com/GRT_III_trigger_home.htm

"but I'll be needin' that gun, fer squirrels and such."

Bill,
Hi there, glad to be here. I have a Gamo CFX, and a Nitro 17 that I bought off of Tim. I really like them both. I have the GRT III in the CFX and will have one ordered for the Nitro here tonight. Thanx for the welcome.

Kent if ya ever need advise on

April 29 2008, 6:41 PM 

how to hide/sneek a new air gun into the house from Ma-Ma please let me know! I may not be able to shoot worth a damn but when it comes to sneeking a gun in the house unnoticed I am the MAN!! Te he he.I got 5 by her in one night!! LOL
Thats my record and still un-noticed.
Now beat that !
And watch out for that Harry guy ! He is very prejudice!!He has been locked up at the RWS Prison Camp until he submitted to 350M's only.
In his eye's that is the only Diana Air Rifle made thats # 1.
I think they fed him sauerkraut and pellets for 6 months straight.Poor Harry!! He gained one hundred pounds in lead and a brand new RWS 350 upon his release. And in all that time he only gave up his Name,Rank and Serial Number
What a guy!!

Sincerly
