Things I liked:The power of this air rifle is amazing. I got it in .22 caliber, and with RWS Superdomes, I was getting an average velocity of 847 ft/sec. The accuracy is very good also. Hitting tennis balls at 40 yards, is very easy to do. At that distance, the pellets penetrate through 1 side of the tennis ball, and are captured inside.

Hitting tennis balls at 40 yards, is very easy to do. At that distance, the pellets penetrate through 1 side of the tennis ball, and are captured inside.
Things I would have changed:I was somewhat disappointed that RWS/Diana is using plastic for the trigger, triggerguard, and safety assembly. Hopefully this will not be a problem when the temperature gets below freezing.
What others should know:If you are looking for an air rifle with lots of power, and great accuracy, look no further. I have had the best accuracy with the Superdome pellets. I have tried almost every .22 pellet that Pyramyd sells, and these seem to be the most consistant.

Things I liked:This is, an amazing rifle. It packs a huge punch. I bought the .177. The iron sights on the gun are very good, but I always thought that I would mount a scope on it....so...I ordered a Leapers TS from PA. When my scope arrived I was excited, and sighted it in right away. Here is what I found. 1: The gun was wicked heavy. 2: I was questioning whether or not to take the scope off. Not because of the weight, but because I started to like shooting it with just the iron sights. 3: Make sure that you use a heavy pellet. If you don't, you will find that the skirts will be destroyed, and you'll get flyers. I found the Beeman Kodiaks 10.6 or the JSB Exacts Diablo 10.2 work the best. 4: If you do mount a scope, the ONLY way to mount a scope that will take the serious recoil of this gun, is buy buying the UTG scope mount base, that compensates for barreldroop that fits the RWS Diana 350, and the Leapers Space Age 1" Rings, Low, Weaver Mount. Of course I went with the True Strength scope buy Leapers. 5: The Plastic trigger housing. Yes, I was concerned, because all of my other rifles are Metal and wood. But after shooting with this trigger, I found it very responsive and delightful.
Things I would have changed:The scope rail.
What others should know:I did put the scope back on. After all, I am getting a little older, and need all the help I can get. Cheers, Mark

Things I liked:You can remove the iron sights for use with a scope without exposing the insides of the barrel. Hits hard. Groups the size of less than a dime at 15yds with the right pellets. The scope rail is the perfect size for the Beeman 5040 mount.

Things I would have changed:Plastic trigger makes me wonder about its longevity. Make the hole in the bottom of the trigger guard bigger for access of common screwdrivers to adjust the 1st stage trigger.
What others should know:Beeman extra heavy match kodiaks group the best with my rifle. Crow magnums, predators, and diabolo exacts don't do as well. Kodiaks are about .35 inch groups at 15yds. The rest were more than an inch. Make sure your scope mount is tight. You'll find that your point of impact will change on you if you don't.

Things I liked:I was going to write a review on this gun some time ago, but it got away on me. So here it is.
Fit and finish is as good as it gets. Bluing and etching is excellent, as is the beautifully checkered Monte Carlo stock with soft rubber, vented recoil pad. The true, two-stage adjustable trigger is die for, and has the sweetest pull I ever had the privilege of owning. And talk about "out of the box" accurate! Mine puts 7.9 grain Crosman Lites through the crony at a whopping 850 FPS (Feet Per Second!) -- and that's at 25 yards, measured! I know some air rifles that can't do this at the muzzle (my Crosman G1 Extreme, truth be told.) Speaking of which, the CP Lites exit the muzzle at 1100 FPS. As for things like Gamo PBA and Crosman Silver Eagles, they do better than 1450 FPS. But at this velocity, it cracks more like a .223 high powered rifle, than it does a .22 rimfire. Not to mention, a springer air rifle. As for the heavier 10.5 grain CP pellets, it does 810 FPS at 25 yards, and 950 at the muzzle (my Crosman G1 Extreme puts these same pellets out the muzzle at 780 FPS.) I know, but there it is. That old axiom of getting what you pay for.
Now I want to tell you about a little extra something that makes all the difference in the world; especially when it comes to the longevity and endurance of the gun. If you were to look at the underside of the cocking arms, you would find that a roller bearing takes up all the stress, instead of some pivot point connecting rivet. Very Nice!
Things I would have changed:Plastic trigger housing -- although it is one of the sweetest triggers I have ever wrapped a finger around! I kid you not, the pull is to die for.
Length. It's long at 48" long. (That's four feet!)
Weight: Nearly nine pounds, and that's without a scope! Speaking of which: this rifle is so accurate with its iron sights, I'm debating on whether to scope it or not. And, believe it or not, I took out a gopher with just one shot using Beeman hollow point 7.3 grain Silvers Bears at 65 yards -- open sights -- measured! He never knew what hit him...
But with all this power comes the dreaded effort of cocking the thing. It's a man's gun through and through, and your going to know it after about 50 shots. Especially the next day, so make sure it's a weekend where you have time for your cocking arm to recover.
What others should know:The adjustable site is a breeze to operate that stays where you put it shot after shot. But here is where all that German engineering really shines: when you shoulder the rifle, it seems to automatically jump right into the shooting position -- and on target! But if do decide to scope it, the 11 mm built-in scope rail and stop will handle whatever you throw at it with no problem at all. Like most things with this air rifle, it's hefty to say the least.

I found Beeman Kodiak Match Heavy pellets work best for longer range. I prefer the Iron Sights to a scope, the accuracy improved, maybe due to weight or the fact the break barrel changes slightly between loads.
This gun broke the supplied RWS 300 scope and eventually the Bushnell Banner scope after 1000-2000 rounds.

Things I liked:the really light cocking effort, you can shoot this gun all day and i promise you arm wont get sore. THE ACCURACY IS AMAZING!!!! It takes about 1000 rounds until its broken in and after that! i can hit the exact same spot 50yrds away with about a 3in drop every time! And the power is enough to penetrate a 2x4!! I LOVE THIS GUN

Things I liked:Fit and finish are very nice. The gun has a nice weight to it. It feels like a quality rifle. The stock is very nice for a beech stock. Beautiful bluing on this as well. I cannot seem to miss with this rifle...it is very accurate and I was shooting nice groups right out of the box (iron sights.) Offhand 50 yard shots at cans are no problem (I'm using 15.8 grain JSB Exacts by the way.) I don't know if I'll even put a scope on it...it's so much fun without it. At 10 yards 3/8" dowel are fairly easy to hit....I think just about everyone will agree that the accuracy of this rifle is there. The power is very impressive. In .22 it is penetrating 3 layers of corrugated tin (roofing.) At 30 yards it blows right through 1 layer of tin, whereas my Beeman C1 usually dents it at that range (roughly 800 fps. in .177) I have found the recoil to be pleasant and cocking effort fairly minimal as well...this gun makes an excellent plinker.
Things I would have changed:It's too bad the trigger guard, trigger, and safety are plastic. Metal pieces would not have cost that much more. That being said, the trigger guard is very nice plastic and almost feels like aluminum...especially with the checkering on it. Also...the "350 Magnum" in the checkering on the right side screams "Red Ryder" and looks cheap.
What others should know:Power-wise, you will not be disappointed. The price is right...this is no Chinese gun remember. Don't worry about proper "hold" technique. Just hold it...not too tight, not too loose. It shoots great. Unless you're coming from a high end Beeman or Air Arms or HW, you will not be disappointed with the fit/finish. If you are coming from one of those I suspect you are in search of power...you've found it.

Things I would have changed:A little heavy. The scope dovetail is a pain. Don't buy the all-in-one packaged RWS300 scope and C-Rings, they will waste a lot of your time.
What others should know:Buy the "RWS Lock Down" scope mount, not available on this website. And buy the Bushnell Banner 4-12 x 40mm (71-4124), also not available on this website. The Banner is rated for AirGuns, check the manufacture's website to confirm. I installed the scope mount backwards to ensure my elevation wasn't at maximum extent.
Make sure to run cleaning patches (pellets don't seem to work), I recommend the Beeman Delux Cleaning Patches and a standard bore cleaning pole with the "blunt" cap, not the brush.
The gun is very accurate and fun to shoot once I got the right scope, mount, and system going. I use RWS SuperMag as I've seen test results that show they keep the pellet away from the sound barrier, improving pellet behaviour.

More accurate than I can ever be. All the accuracy claims with open sights (Dime, Nickle, Quarter, Same Hole) that have been posted are true and repeatable. It's all up to you. Power 14.3gr - 15.8gr domed pellets will go through 3/4" knotty pine (not the knots) and stick into one inch of a loose phonebook backer (behind the pine board) at twenty meters. This performance is out of the box.
Things I would have changed:My only concern with a plastic trigger is aging.
What others should know:Great buy.

Things I liked:I could not have been more impressed with literally every aspect of this rifle. The speed at first inspection appears to be on par with the advertised specs. Pull the trigger, and the target area responds with dirt flying in every direction instantly. The wood to metal fit is great, and the bluing is excellent. The trigger material would be my only complaint; it appears to be made from some type of plastic, with that being said plastic have come along way from even just a decade ago. And,once again, A+ to the great staff at Pyramid Air.
Things I would have changed:Maybe the trigger material.
What others should know:WOW, incredible. Do yourself a favor; early Christmas gift etc.

Things I liked:Beautiful rifle, nice checkering, excellent trigger and accuracy. The bluing is even and deep with an amazing shine when oiled and wiped down after an afternoon of shooting. Balances exrtemely well and fits me perfectly. Great open sights. My gun loves Predator pellets(.22) it put three shots into one ragged hole at fifty yards and it's not even broken in yet, can't wait!
Things I would have changed:Only the scope rail, everything else is perfect.
What others should know:I ordered the Leapers compensator mount for the 460 after reading that the mount for the 350 overcompensates on some rifles. I mounted a 6-9x40mm Centerpoint scope with Leapers weaver rings, with 4 allen screws per ring and it is a nice setup, no problem with scope movement after 500 shots. Buy this gun if you love power, accuracy, and quality, you won't be dissapointed.

Things I liked:Follow up review after 1100 shot break in period. I really like the power the gun has. I don't have a chronograph, but I am almost positive my 350 is spitting out pellets at speeds faster than the tech department recorded. I like the relatively easy cocking effort. I was impressed with the accuracy as well. It keeps getting better with each shot. I can hit a red bull can from 75 yards standing up 9 out of 10 times. The rear sight is nice. .5" groups from 30 yrds
Things I would have changed:The front sight was bent and when i tried to fix it, the metal piece in the center broke off. But I have a scope so I'm not too worried about that. I would have liked a metal trigger but so far the plastic one is holding up well. But besides that I love the gun.
What others should know:I found that gripping the gun like you would a normal rifle takes away from the accuracy.. I am able to make much better shots if I lay the gun on the palm of my hand. I would recommend a one piece scope mount. I made the mistake of buying a 2 piece and I've had some trouble with it. also..don't use ultralight pellets in this gun. My gun really likes crossman premier hollow points. You may have good luck with those, or your gun may like something different. Overall I would suggest this gun for someone that is serious about getting into small game hunting without all the hassle or trouble (if you live in a residential area) that a firearm could cause. the gun is somewhat loud if you shoot anything under 14 gr. pellets out of it. (i bought some 11.9 gr hobby pellets. they seem to shoot without a problem and are accurate. They also seem to break the sound barrier. I shot one past my friend when we were hunting and his ears were ringing for 15 minutes.) I hope you found this review helpful.

What others should know:If you are looking for a high quality, depedable gun, this is it. I've had a Model 36 for 20 years and it performs like it did when I bought it. I bought this 350 in .22 to add to my collection. It shot tight groups right out of the box. With break-in, it should shoot better than my ability.
I shot the 350 (without break-in) side by side with a Benjamin Super Streak .22 (had 1000 shots) and within 10 shots, I decided to return the Super Streak.

Things I liked:I liked the stock of this air rifle very much. RWS deffinately did very good with the design of this beast. The accuracy of this gun in excellent. If you dont find it accurate your just a bad marksman. Along with that this gun has some extreme power for animals from squirells through raccoons and etc. But all this comes at a price not financially but the cocking effort is a little extreme. And it;s a little heavy but nothing a sling cant fix.
Things I would have changed:Everyone complains about the trigger, But I wont i didn't find and problems with it. The only problem with it is that it is plasctic. But it does do it's job. And the weight of the gun, but it's not that big of a deal, the biggest problem is the cocking effort but it does lighten up over time.
What others should know:this is the first day of shooting the RWS 350 and I have already bagged two squirells, with a nice humane, clean kill. One to the head the other to the heart. I found the JSB predators most accurate, and power. For a springer, It is the best i can think of. And it is also great for someone who doesn't want the hassle of PCP ports, plugs, etc. GREAT addition to the collection.

Things I liked:The accuracy of this gun was nothing less than amazing! The power was the same. I have takin out 10 sparrows 20 Doves and a bunch of other pests and game! I even shot a small mouse at 50 yards! I love this gun it is amazing. Drops doves, and things the size of groundhogs like they are made of led. The stock is out of this world

Things I would have changed:Not much sept for that the poor little critters just dont have a fair chance LOL!
What others should know:Great gun, I recomend it to anyone over 16 that is really in to airguns! Great knock down power and accuracy. BUY IT!

Its selling point seems to be POWER9which is not in short supply by any means), buut the accuracy is un matched. I was able to hit a 1/4" group at 35 yrds, after about 400 shots

Now lets talk a bout the power. Straight through a 1x4 hurricane shutter, that is some strong wood...so strong that when it went through it splintered the entire peice of wood.
Things I would have changed:
What others should know:In the airgun industry you get what you pay for...with this gun you get a lot more. And one more thing. the backstop needs to be very sturdy and stong for this gun

Things I liked:This is one of the most accurate pellet guns I have ever shot.Mine is in .22 caliber,and is the most powerful pellet gun I have ever shot also.It is very much like shooting a .22 rimfire .22 short,especially ith the 21.10 grain beeman Kodiak extra heavy pellets,and with those pellets,the energy is almost exactly the same as a .22 long.This site says the .22 version fires at 920 fps,but my box says 1050fps,and I'm guessing that my 21 grain pellets are moving at around 900fps,i'm not sure,but I know from experience that i'm probably close,and if I am,that's a whopping 38 ft lbs of energy.That's twice as powerful as one of those .177 1000fps guns!
Things I would have changed:the trigger andsafety are plastic
What others should know:mounting a scope on this gun right is tricky,and even then,it may slide.I took mine off and have been using the iron sights,which are the best i've seen on an airgun.I can blow a pop cap off at 40 feet,and then set the cap back up and hit it again at 45 feet.The front sight comes to a point,very nice.

Things I liked:Everything! The quality is top notch. Right out of the box I was very impressed with the workmanship of the rifle. The stock is beautiful and the bluing flawless. This is definatley not your everyday average air rifle. Cocking effort was less then I expected. Cocking action was smooth right out of the box. The trigger pull is very nice. I'm not planning on touching the adjustments at all. The first 100 or so shots were all over the place, but that was expected. After that, groups tightened alot. There was alot of vibration through the gun at first which is the reason for the wide groups. After the first 100 or so shots that cleared up by half. After almost 1000 shots its a different gun. The recoil is still there but the vibration is way down, cocking the gun is nearly silent with a solid click at the bottom. The trigger even better. Shot groups are down to a half inch at the most at 20yrds with the stock sights. Oh yes the sights. I love the stock sights! The rear sight is solid and the click adjustments are nice and positive. The front site is just as good. I really like the post globe setup. I'm a big fan of open sights myself, but this gun needs a good scope. It reaches out well beyond the naked eye. I plan on getting the Leapers 4-16x50 with the new RWS mount when it comes out. So far I' shot countless black birds and many rats at up to 35yrds with no problem. With a scope I know it'll reach out well beyong that.
Things I would have changed:Nothing at all
What others should know:My 350 loves the JSB Predators and exacts 15.8gr, Crow Magnums also. This is a very powerful gun. If you thing it scream out of the box, wait until you get around 1000 rounds through it! RWS super points aren't the most accurate pellets through mine but they sound wicked ! going down range! This gun is not very load for those of you with that concern. Thanks to Sharon at Pyramid. You were very helpful and you made a great reccomendation based on my needs. If you're looking for a magnum springer that will last.....get the 350mag. You won't be dissapointed.

Things I liked:The accuracy and power is unmatched. I have no problems using iron sights to shoot cans from 10 yards to an outwards of 70 yards in .22 caliber! If you get a scope, make sure you use a one piece mount with stop pins using Loctite (Blue) on the threads. RWS guns are known to have shallow screw holes for mount attachment; so, make sure you tighten the screw accordingly.
Things I would have changed:I would make this gun a little lighter and perhaps a bit easier to cock. This gun is a bit on the expensive side-- there are some Chinese models made by BAM that are similar to power and design as this gun.
What others should know:It's a very heavy gun. This is a gun that also requires a bit of upper strength if one plans to shoot all day with it. It is very tiresome for those who don't. My girlfriend is unable to cock this gun! =P
Oh, and my guns loves Predators, Crosman Premiers and Crow Magnum pellets. I found that I got the best grouping with these.

After a tin of beeman silver arrow I had a hard time getting 3" @ 20 yds. I found what it likes to eat, Crosman heavy domes 10.5. This thing realy puts lead out there. I started with 40 yds then 50 yds to 60 yds and so far Im out to 70 yds with about a 3 1/2" drop at that distance. NOW THAT'S COOL

Also I sent mine to Charlie the Tuna for a custom tune. It was the best money on spent on a tune,The rifle shoots Soooo much smother and the cocking effort was greatly reduced. I went thru a whole tin of pellets in one sitting the other day and had no problem with cocking. Thanks RWS for the high quality rifle, Pyramyd Air for thegreat service and Charlie the Tuna for making it all come together. This is going to be a KEEPER.

What others should know:This gun dances when you shoot it. Make sure you have a good scope mount because if you don't, I wouldn't even bother trying to use a scope. It will just break it or jar it around so much it can't stay zeroed in. I've only shot a couple hundred rounds, but this gun looks promising.

Things I liked:This is beautiful piece of airgun workmanship and is the MOST accurate pellet gun I have ever shot. The power is incredible, beyond belief. It blew the side off my pellet trap bending the trap wall and snapping three welds using crow magnum pellets. This pellet trap is rated for " .22 caliber pellet guns with magnum power". Accuracy is phenominal with 5 shot groups as small as .20 c-t-c at twenty-five yards with BSA Wolverine pellets (by far the best pellet I have ever used). In every respect this pellet gun is the best I have ever owned.
Things I would have changed:I would have lopped off about 5 inches of the barrel and added a permanently mounted supressor vis-a-vis BSA pellet guns. Also I would have added a lip to the front of the stock similar to a Theoben Eliminator. But that is just my taste in pellet gun aesthetics Note to RWS: This pellet gun is so wonderful you should make several versions, carbine, laminated stock , etc.
What others should know:The best pellet for this gun by far is the 16 grain BSA Wolverine in .22 caliber. My groups went from an erratic .50 c-t-c (on a dark and windy afternoon) to a respectable .30 c-t-c in identical conditions. This pellet gun is the king of the hill. In the words of the almighty Tom Gaylord: " Buy this pellet gun for its features rather than its price, although it is very competitive on both accounts"
NOTE TO BUYERS : When you get this pellet gun the power will NOT be at the levels mine is now. The RWS self lubricating piston will break in after approx. 1-2 tins of pellets and the power will increase dramatically.

Things I would have changed:not sure of anything. i just got it and will get more intimate with the 350 as time goes on. but as for now it needs no improvement.
What others should know:i got the "shooters kit" for the extra $120 or whatever it was. Yeah! my buddy was over when the RWS 350 got delivered. 1st thing he said was "nice scope". then he said "big scope" LOL. The plano case is nice too- pretty sollid, heavy.
we shot a few rounds in the backyard. NICE! not sure if it is hitting the 920 fps or 1050 (seen different reports) but it probably is. Just seems a little slow. I most likely will get a chrono to test all my stuff.
Thanks Pyramydair. Great transaction and i'm stoked on my RWS 350!

Awesome power. Very sturdy mechanics. I like the open sights on this gun. I like the automatic safety that is engaged with the gun is cocked. I only have about 30 yards in my backyard to work with so I like having the open sights, makes it more challenging. And it is not too loud either. Also very fast shipping and delivery. Pyramyd rules!!
Things I would have changed:Maybe if the sights had color. Nothing else. A great gun.
What others should know:Due to the high velocity performance, this gun requires 33 pounds of pressure to cock.

Things I liked:It has excellent velocity. At 5,280 feet altitude, I am getting 825 fps with the RWS hollowpoint (.22 cal). Accuracy is best with this pellet as well. All RWS pellets shoot well, and the Napier Hunters get 800 fps with a high ballistic coefficient. It is solid, simple to use, cleans easily, and is not that hard to cock. When shooting in my basement, the pellet hitting the target makes more noise than the gun. For the money, this is a great deal in a powerful spring gun.
Things I would have changed:I prefer a metal trigger, but the T-05 plastic trigger works well.
What others should know:If you install a scope, use a scope stop or get mounts with a scope stop provision. I bought 2 pair of Leapers 30MM mounts, and used the two with the scope stop. I have not had a problem in 1,000 shots.

Things I liked:Beautiful spring rifle coupled with a lot of punch. Although I've only had it for a year, it certainly feels like it will last a lifetime and be handed down to my children. Great length and there is an overall balance to the design and weight distribution.
Things I would have changed:My palms would prefer not having to give the barrel a good slap in order to break it open, but the rugged locking mechanism probably ensures that the barrel returns to the same postion after each cocking. The cocking effort itself is reasonable for the power obtained.
What others should know:It's a heavy and long rifle so continous plinking will be exhausting. Great for large backyard pest control or a short hike into the woods when hunting.

Things I liked:Beautiful workmanship, nice quality and incredible pest elimination and knockdown power with my 22 version. Very powerful smooth cocking gun, cocks easily relative to power output. Nice trigger action and nice pest visibility with the Leapers scope. 3 shots at some problem pigeons ranging between 40-80 feet, 3 eliminated didn't miss once. (Crow magnum rounds terminated them) Great small game rifle almost made it seem to easy. Very accurate and great power with heavy pellets. I look forward to putting many rounds through this gun as I continue to explore my proficiency with the guns accuracy and range potential. I am glad the sales staff at Pyramyd brought this gun to my attention and I am very happy with the gun overall.
Things I would have changed:Nothing. It would be awesome if RWS made a semi-auto with this power and accuracy that you didn't have to cock.
What others should know:This is a powerful air rifle that is a bit much for casual plinking. If you have pests to eliminate, and are a serious shooter who wants a high quality adult air rifle with good knockdown power, I recommend this gun. Leapers scope worked well in low light levels at dusk. Fairly quiet for power output.

Things I would have changed:possibly the plastic trigger, as referenced above, however, it may just be fine. I have no intentions of changing it in the future.
What others should know:This is not the gun if you want something that you can plink with for an extended period of time, as the cocking action is quite heavy. But the power and accuracy WELL make up for the effort involved in the firing sequence.

What others should know:The only thing airgunners should know is that this is a big rifle ,not for the junior shooter unless they are big and had tried it first. THIS IS A WINNER THANKS.. RWS.

Things I liked:The RWS 350 .22 arrived quick and in mint condition from Pyramid Air. Out of the box, my first impression was how long yet well balanced the rifle was. The stock was nicely finished to a medium-dark satin sheen, and the bluing was even and decent looking. It really is the big sister to my Diana mod 34, packing quite a punch. The 350 gives a satisfying kick, with good feedback and a solid THWOK!~ with very little twang or vibration. I scoped it with a Leapers 4-16x50 AO and Accushot one piece mount. I put a .005 brass shim at the rear ring to take care of any droop the rifle may have. I punched some paper at 20 yards using brown box CPLs, Benjamins, and JSB Exact Jumbos. The Benjamins proved to be the most accurate. There was no detonation or dieseling out of the box. This is a great hunting airgun for the money. Despite the plastic parts (trigger, guard, safety and end cap) which are very well cast, you can be sure this is a well made German springer.
Things I would have changed:There was a burr on the front sight that caused minor scratching of the dovetail when I removed it. The biggest gripe is of course, the RWS scope rail. They really should design a better one that allows the mounting pin to seat properly, without having to hang the pin off of the front of the rail to prevent creeping.
What others should know:Get this airgun if you want a powerful small game hunter. Cocking effort is pretty hefty, but I'm able to get many dozens of rounds off in an afternoon of shooting and plinking without great suffering.
