Lay down a shower of lead with the Diana Stormrider!
Since 1892, Diana has produced high-quality airguns that are as reliable as they are accurate. While the Stormrider may not be their first PCP, it’s certainly the most budget-friendly. With a straightforward, no-frills design, the Stormrider’s combination of repeating shots and great features make it a serious contender for one of the best entry-level PCPs.
The first thing you’ll notice is the quality of the German beech stock. It’s sturdy and contoured with checkering on the grip and forend. With a thickness of 1.5 inches wide and a total weight of 5lbs, the Stormrider is easy to handle for shooters young and old.
Hands down, the best feature of this Diana is its repeating shots. Simply load up the rotary magazine and slide it into the breech which secures it into place magnetically. With 9 shots in .177 and 7 in .22, cycle to a new round with a quick flick of the bolt action. Once you charge up the 200 BAR (2900 psi) cylinder, you can send rounds downrange at 1,050 fps (.177) and 900 fps (.22). Additionally, if you want to shoot one shot at a time, a single-shot tray is included. It also includes open sights with a fully adjustable rear sight and an 11mm dovetail for mounting your own optics.
If you’ve wanted your own PCP airgun but the price has held you back, the Stormrider gives you a budget-friendly PCP design that lives up to the Diana name.
Tech Tip: For Gen 1. models, the front and rear sights are removable. It may be necessary to remove the rear sight when mounting an optic longer than 10". On Gen. 2 models, the rear sight is still removable.
Please note: Gen. 2 Stormrider packages incorrectly list the overall length as 38.5" while the correct overall length is 40.5" for this version due to the longer moderator. The correct overall length for the Gen. 1 Stormrider is 38.5".

Please note: The Gen1 Stormrider has a shorter muzzle brake than the Gen2. The Gen1 is rated for a sound level of 3/5. The Gen2 is rated as a 2/5.

Things I would have changed:Nothing
What others should know:I usually don’t leave reviews but I have to tell my story on this one.I ordered a what is considered a inexpensive scope named Tasco as I used them in the 80s on center fire rifles.I opened the box of the Stormrider and mounted the Tasco scope 4x32 that fit flawless and the magazine cleared perfectly with about 1/32 clearance.Then I loaded the magazine and set the Stormrider on a bench rest and aimed at a 3 inch spinning target at 25 yards fired and twang / spin ! It was almost zeroed with no adjustment. I am happy with my set up.

This isy second Diana Stormrider I've gotten from Pyramid air and it's light weight and simple design make it a great small game rifle for younger hunters to use, it's power is respectable and accuracy is great
Things I would have changed:I would ad a extra barrel band for the end of the barrel to help stabilize any droop,( which has not been a issue as of yet.
What others should know:The price of this rifle is very impressive for it's I feel it should get more credit

OCT. 11, 2022: My wife's Stormrider Gen1 will not take any air. She has not shot it since May but did not put it away with totally empty air tank. I have now been told that we should add air pressure periodically...who knew. But why will it not take ANY air from pump? Needle remains pegged at ) on rifle gauge. Help?
To anyone that bought a Refurb model. Is buying a new one worth the extra $40 or should i buy a refurbed one?
The refurbed one has already been broke in! The parts that might have failed have probably been replaced to a "like new" condition. I have bought several "Refurbed" air guns from PA, they are well worth the savings!!
is this gen 1 or2 ?
Gen2
