These guns typically use one or two 12-gram cartridges (or sometimes the larger 88-gram cartridge) and are remarkably consistent in warmer temperatures as long as the cartridge still contains some liquid CO2 (also Co2, CO-2 and Co-2).
These rifles make a great choice for backyard plinking, shooting at targets, and small-game hunting (with a high-powered air rifle).
The two main categories for classifying these air rifles are models that shoot BBs vs. models that shoot pellets. A CO2 pellet rifle will generally be more accurate and powerful than a BB version because of the accuracy gained when the
barrel's rifling spins the pellet, which doesn't happen with BBs. The type of rifle you should get depends on what you're needs are with an air gun. However, rifled pellet guns will also ricochet more than bb air rifles.
If you're planning to use it for recreation, such as target practice or pest control, your best option is a pre-charged, pneumatic (PCP) air rifle. It comes with its own internal high pressure air reservoir, so it shoots whenever you
pull the trigger. These types of air rifles don't require cO2 cartridges and allow you to shoot for longer periods without stopping to recharge. Models are available in single shot, multi-shot and full auto models.
If you're planning to shoot more often, weekly or daily for practice, you may be better suited with a CO2 rifle that uses disposable cartridges. These air guns are quick and easy to operate - just cock them and pull the trigger. If you
go this route, you may want to look for a multi-shot or repeating (automatic) model that can be loaded with multiple cartridges at a time and shot in rapid succession (semi automatic or fully automatic).
We offer guns that replicate current or historical firearms, giving you the chance to connect with the past or practice with a gun with the same operation and feel of a real firearm. You can also find single shot and multi shot (semi-
and full-auto, also known as fully automatic or full-automatic) co2 air rifles featuring realistic blowback, and more.
No matter if you want the most realistic shooting experience possible, or just want a fun way to plink cans and pepper paper targets - CO2 rifles are a great place to start. If you are looking for an affordable rifle that's top-rated,
easy to maintain, and also a thrill to shoot - you'll find it at Pyramyd AIR.
