Description

Capable of sending .177-caliber pellets downrange at up to 1100 FPS (900 FPS in .22 caliber), the Diana 460 Magnum is a powerful air rifle, to say the least.

Its blued steel components come dressed in a handsome, hardwood stock with forearm and pistol-grip checkering, along with a raised, right-hand Monte Carlo cheek piece. Just mount a scope on the integrated, 11mm dovetail rail and the Diana 460 Magnum underlever air rifle will make a solid platform for target shooting, small-game hunting and pest eradication. 

A fine specimen of Diana's German-engineered craftsmanship, any serious airgunner would be proud to own and shoot this underlever action, spring piston powerhouse.

Everything. The big box stores just don't sale this type quality anymore. That being said, If you want power out of a Spring gun this is the rifle to get. At 25 yards shooting at paper targets it sighted in just fine with the iron sights. At my age my eyes are not what they use to be so, I am putting a scope on this rifle. I did use 1/2 plywood as my back stop and some of the pellets would go though the .500 plywood with ease at 25 yards. I didn't have a lot of options of pellets to shoot but, this gun did like the .22 Crossmen Premier Hollow Points in 14.3 grain and the .22 Gamo Red Fire at 15.4 grain. These are the only .22 pellets I could find in my area. I also loved the Under-lever on this Spring rifle, I had no problems cocking this gun at all, It was nice and smooth. Out of the box this Springer was nice and I didn't find any issues with it. Everything was tight with no rattles when I shook it.

The iron sights are a nice option to have but the front sight is a little thick for my liking. That being said, They still work well enough. Its nice to have the option to have a scope and sights if needed. It would great if the gun had the loops for a strap / sling, for this rifle is a little heavy if you plan to hunt with it on long hunts.

Thick front sight, heavy rifle for long hunts. Other then that, this rifle is a must have if you want power in my onion. This is my first Diana Spring rifle I bought so, I don't know how it comperes to the other Mag's like the 350 Diana. But you cant go wrong with the 460 mag.

Wow. Diana 460 Mag. It feels like a gun, loved the recoil,its put the fun back in air rifles. This feels like an air rifle from the 80s. But behaves like a rin fire rifle. Five shot zero in @ 35 metres. Golf ball size groupings. Took it back to 40 metres. Thinking I'd need to re zero for the same size grouping. Less than half a mil dot rise to be on centre.

Ok I personally love the recoil Not so keen on the plastic trigger or the front site.. they're both functional,just a slightly under par, with a gun of this power and accuracy.

Superb gun,if you want a gun that feels like a great gun,shoots accurately like a great gun,has consistant power like a great gun and looks like a great gun. Then the Diana 460 is that gun.
Ps. I'm an archer Haven't used a rifle in 20 years.. This is what we wanted/ needed in the mid 80s. It's rekindled something, The HW 77 but with more power and greater accuracy.

I liked the 177 cal so much .I ordered one in 22 Cal haven't shot it much but seems verry accurate. no barrel droop. way cool. a little spendy but you get what t you pay for shoulders well sighted in in 4 shots 2 down & 2 left go figure

PUT A WEAVER RAIL ON THEM of course the rws lockdown mnt is only 35_40 bucks they match up with the rifles nicely.

Iv never had a problem with any RWS / DIANA products. plus there lifetime guarantee is kool

We’ll balanced, accurate, lots of power

The safety, it works fine but seems to be a little flimsy to me, I’d like to see a better design for the safety.

I cleaned the barrel before I shot the first pellet through it and found the barrel to be fairly dirty, so yes, I’d recommend a good cleaning then enjoy your shooting time.

Great hunting springer with very good power. I have both the .177 and .22. The .22 is one of my 'go to' hunters along with my 350 .22. Not quite the fps/fpe of the 350 (on a chronograph, not guessing) but out in the field I can't really see the difference in power. One thing I like about it more than the 350 is that it is a bit more compact at 45 inches.

Im being picky here but a metal front sight. I have two Diana 470 (.177 and .22) and like the metal up front. The composite front sight does save some weight however as both 470 weigh a bit more than the 460s. Also it seems Diana factory springs tend to drop in power around the 5k shot count. I've had MANY Dianas and this is the norm. Better metallurgy of the actual spring?? I always have mone tuned right around that 5k shot mark.

Talked about this in my review of the 350 .22. A 4 for accuracy only because my TX200 .177 is the only "5" in accuracy I have. But for a mag springer it is HIGHLY accurate. Also scope mounting needs to be done carefully with Sportsmatch, UTG Pro (my #1 recommendation) or RWS Lockdown one piece.

Beautiful piece just like the first one I ordered. just as powerful as the last one This one seems to like hollow point pellets (crow mag etc ) beautiful piece of DEUTCH engineering. This one might become my hunter-pester yea ! 30 yards one ragged hole so Kool with a hollow point yet

would love to see this model with a nitro piston HINT HINT & as usual how about a weaver rail Maby? the squeaky wheel will get some grease. I see by the other reviews other people want them too. for this model.

this one only gets 980 fps. but I'm using heavier pellets to quiet it down a bit.

Beautiful wood-flawless metal work shoots just under advertised FPS by 50 fps (1,055) got another good one this is my 2nd one first one im running with iron sights only

nothing but RWS should finish there lockdown mount to match there rifles ( not as shiny as their rifles ) But still the best one out there. use them on a couple of my more powerful springers. Ruger air mag

Watch your belt buckles got a pressure dent on my first one from not watching out while cocking. & clean your barrels I use 2 shoot through felt cleaners and a POINTED pellet do that twice & your barrel should be verry clean.& then again after every tin of pellets pull through bore cleaners work verry well too just not as easy

I am a novice gunner who liked the trigger, and smooth operation and accuracy of this gun. So easy to shoot straight.

I didn't like the checkering because it was too far from the breech and no use for me. It was slippery to hold. The breech where you load the pellets has no bottom so if you drop a pellet it falls through and gets loss in the gun and having to hold it upside down and shaking it to find the pellet is a hassle. Also if you use a high powered scope it impedes with loading because now the rear sights gets in the way of loading.

I'm new to air gunning and I know this rifle is highly rated so please take into consideration that I am a novice and my comment may not be significant.

Pop the rear sight off, simple screws, put it in a 2x2 Ziploc bag now it's out of the way. put it in your pellet box or get a medium fishing tackle box I use a craftsman (3) drawer toolbox lots of room for pellets cleaning kits tools allen wrenches ETC. its packed & only weights 36 lbs. its preety packed

The rifle has good power and an excellent trigger. This makes it extremely easy to be accurate. I'm a novice and started shooting about 3 months ago. I have collected 7 rifles so far with most of them in the magnum class. Gamo, Hatsan, and Diana. They all are extremely accurate but don't have the trigger this gun has. The Diana 460 and Hatsan 155 are my favorites and they both shoot Crossman 14.3 pellets.

I prefer the hold of the Hatsan when I shoot because my left hand slides off the Diana because the checkering is too far up . I prefer to hold closer to the trigger.

This is truly what an air rifle should be. It is powerful, accurate and very easy to shoot. The Hatsan is very powerful, accurate but a beast to shoot. I now have Beauty and the Beast.

New update My Diana died, she would not cock back but it was refurbished so probably an isolated incident. I chose to replace it with a TX200 because I didn't like the open breech floor,I had trouble dropping pellets when loading and they would fall inside the gun usually getting stuck in the hollow channel lever.

Has a very nice stock.

most of parts plastic. be very careful with cocking arm retainer it tends to let arm fall out of place and the gun will have catastrophic failure that Diana won't back up with warranty. Sights are plastic junk needs to be improved.

I purchased my RWS460 as a refurb from Pyramid Air. It looks just like brand new. It is a really nice air rifle. So far I am not exactly overwhelmed with outstanding accuracy. I attribute that to recoil and not the quality of the rifle. I also got a new HW98 and it was even less accurate until I installed the vortek PG4 tune kit. Now it is very nice to shoot and extremely accurate. I am ordering the same kit for my 460. If you have a good quality air rifle you owe it to yourself and your rifle to give it a tune to get the best from it.
