Air Guns - RWS 34 or 350 magnum - which one would suit my needs best? I am searching for a durable, long lasting, and accurate air gun for target shooting as well as small game hunting / pest control. When hunting, head shots are far more important than muzzle velocity (or so i've heard), which makes accuracy my number one concern. I will be shooting at ranges from 20-50 yards.
After doing a bunch of research, i've narrowed it down to two models - RWS 34 and RWS 350 Magnum. (RWS because of its reputation for standing behind its guns)
RWS 34 - most likely will get in .177 caliber, due to the flatter trajectory. Heard mixed reviews about accuracy (mostly good), but I am leaning more towards this model. How is the accuracy out to 50 yards? Would RWS Superdomes suffice in achieving 50 yard accurate groups?
RWS 350 magnum - far more powerful, and i've only heard good things about the accuracy. Debating whether to get in .22 or .177 caliber, but leaning more towards .177 once again, for the trajectory once again. Bad points however, include the fact that this model is also quite a bit more expensive. Is it worth the extra $100+ ?
So, advice please please PLEASE! Any suggestions as to which gun, and which caliber for that gun? And your recommendation for pellets?
Tips, comments, and advice would be very much appreciated, thank you.
Sincerely,
Jonny
also - how are the sound levels different? will I disturb my neighbors by shooting either one?
Thanks to C _F_45
however,
does anybody know the trajectory stats for the 350 magnum in 22 cal?
for example, in the Diana RWS 34 model's trajectory (.177) the shots are half an inch low at 7 yards, dead on at 14, half an inch high at 28, and half an inch low at 48 i believe. (sighted in for 42 yards with 8.3grain RWS Superdome pellets)
these stats make shooting a hole bunch easier. does anyone know these stats for the .22 RWS 350 magnum?
