The finest quality and accurate air rifles are very expensive and out of most peoples reach. These are Olympic match rifles and cost upwards of $3000 for just the rifle and another $1000 to $2000 for the support system.
So lets just skip that. There are several less expensive air rifles but they cost anywhere from $400 and up to $1000.

So lets look at GOOD quality affordable air rifles. Crosman is one of the more common air rifle manufactures, they make a quite a few models that are OKay, Just that OKay. They also make a fine line of Benjamin rifles that are of a better quality. This is where I would start to look. Personally I like the Hatsan brand of air rifles. I find them to be of very good quality and in a price range that won't clean you out.

Expect to pay around $250 and up for a good rifle. I'm going to attach a web link (see below) that list hunting and plinking air rifles in this category. look at the red stars listed next to each rifle to see customer ratings. open the ones you like and read the reviews to get an Idea of what owners say.

Also read my definition of different air rifle systems so you get a better idea of what is available. See Link #2 below

Are BBs or Pellets more accurate?

In general, BB guns are smoothbore, and the barrel is larger than the steel BB. Pellets guns are rifled, and fire a lead pellet that is a squeeze fit to the bore. This is MUCH more accurate than a BB. GOOD pellet guns are more accurate than firearms, within their usable range. I have one pellet rifle that will put pellet after pellet into the same hole in the target at 10 meters.


Is the daisy 880 power line a powerful bb gun?

750 fps./BB; 665 fps./pellet The name Power-line may be a little misleading. Modern Pellet rifles are capable of firing a pellet at 1000+ fps. But this is a combination BB and Pellet gun and as far as BB rifles goes 750 fps is a good speed for a BB. This is about as fast as they can possibly go. I own 2 of these and find them very entertaining to shoot for fun.


Can copper BBS be fired in a pellet gun?

If the Owners instructions say BB's or Pellets can be used it would be OK. But IF the Owners manual says Pellets. Then NEVER use BB's in a pellet gun. Oh they will work. But you will ruin the rifling in the pellet gun or rifle. Here is why. Good pellet guns have rifling in the barrel. (Little groves) that make the pellet spin as it is fired. Pellets have a soft skirt on the end that catches the air and conforms to these groves. This gives the pellet a spinning effect and adds to accuracy of the pellet. BB guns have a smooth bore barrel ( Like a straw) the BB is hard and tumbles down the barrel and is not as accurate as pellets. If a BB is used in the Pellet barrel it slowly destroys the grooves in the rifled barrel. It also leaves residue from the copper in the barrel. I've seen several good air rifles that have been ruined by the owner forcing it to shoot BB. It's a poor idea to do this to a good air gun.

It's designed as a pellet rifle. Forcing it to fire BBs will ruin the rifling in the barrel. Rendering it much less accurate, It's a good way to ruin a pellet rifle.
