Info needed on Diana 350 Magnum

[pcteja87]

Hi ,
I am planning on purchasing a Diana 350 magnum .177 cal , and wanted any insight from people who own the gun , mainly on the following :
1) is it a good gun for shooting in artillery hold

2) is it loud

3) what make of pellets does well with this rifle

Will appreciate any insight into the the above queries.

Thanks

Hi ,

I have owned 460 magnum which is under leaver magnum and she's well built , super accurate if you do your part well , and like heavy pellets like h&N baracuda hunters n hunter extreme.

350 is almost similar power but break barrel and she's also quality German springer. Being over 20ft/lb gun these magnums need good practice and and once you master it's fun !!

If you want an all day springer check on diana34 , weihrauch HW50 ,HW95 which are 12 to 15 ft/lb guns .

Cheers

Will give a look at the other suggestions.

It is awesome , very effective and beautiful too, if you maste the artillery hold. Shoots 9.5 to 10.5 gr very effectively.

It certainly is more powerful than 460. No doubt. But, longer length and compression chamber makes the artillery hold less forgiving. This is the condition to own any Magnum rifle.

It is best in .22 if one goes for, but quite good with hy pellets in .177

Also, it is not an all day's rifle. But, those like me are proud owners and won't part with it.

Further, 460's charm and feel is in .22 and not in .177.

In .17 , i have gone for 350. In .22, 460 was my personal preference.

Hi "pm40909",
Appreciate ur insight into the topic. Any idea on what the 460 in .22 price is and availability ?

[pm40909]

Hi Teja,
the .22 cal, in air rifle also, is banned legally as gen people say. A very cautious call has to be taken , xosidering your reqmt, location, profession, etc. But, few are still avbl. It would be nice if you call or msg me separately.

Hi pm40909,
Noted , will do the same.

I have both 350 and 460 magnums, In my view DIANA 350 Magnum always Top Notch in the Springers and sleek design gives you a better artillery hold than any other makes models, am already had several imported ARs, but my thirst always fulfilled with 350 magnum only, here am posted one part of my collection.
