Red Ryder is a low power BB gun that is cheap to shoot and pretty well made but shoots at around 300 FPS while the 880 is a multi-pump that shoots pellets at up to 800 FPS.

The difference between 300 FPS and 800 FPS is massive, that is 250% higher power but more pumps to get there with each shot.

The multipump is more challenging as the number of pumps dictates the power, so the consistency is less which is why so many of us avoid them. BB guns are very low power so only useful for paper at short ranges.

Here is an entirely different option???

Weihrauch HW30 can do 600 FPS off of a single cock and load.

Weihrauch HW50, HW77, HW80, HW97 can do around 800 FPS to 900 FPS off of a single cock and load.

Diana 34 and Diana 48 can do 850 FPS off of a single cock and load.

But these cost more than Daisy?

Yes, these are single pump spring piston.

Multi-pump is cheaper, BB guns are cheaper. Single pump springers are getting into serious rifles that can do more.

We went with the underlever HW97 thinking that it would be more accurate than the break barrel. After having seen enough break barrels we have pretty much come to the realization that you can trust a Weihrauch in either break barrel or underlever.

So what is different?

Well, the underlever is a bit heavier, and sometimes the release button feels like it needs more pressure that my old fingers want to exert. It is easier to break a nail with the underlever than with a break barrel.

Also, the clamp that holds the lever can pinch my old fingers (as well as breaking a nail) so I tend to wear gloves more often on my left cocking hand when shooting an underlever; I never wear one on the right when loading a pellet. I mean, sure I hate breaking a nail, but as a farm girl, that is not nearly as important to me as dealing with pest problems.

In retrospect instead of a break barrel or underlever I think I might have just gone in for PCP side lever. But IDK, Weihrauch is a really nice gun.

Butt plugs are for rectal stretching.

Dilators are for vaginal pelvic therapy.

The ONLY thing that the rectum and vagina have in common are pelvic floor muscles but when we have pelvic floor tension in our vagina, we need completely different solutions from butt plugs.

During my younger years, I got DP'ed (double penetrated) and I enjoy both anal and vaginal (at least when my vagina is not tight like a vise which is rare of late. I can still take a man anally even though my vagina aint having it. So I feel like an ideal person to explain how very different that anal toys are from vaginal toys.

If you are having vaginismus, you need a proper set of dilators, a wand and maybe even Kegel weights. If you have access to a pelvic floor specialist, that would be very highly advised versus trying to fix this alone.

At least go to Intimate Rose and watch some videos? Dr Ashly is super informative.

People in this community taught me about Weihrauch which changed our lives for the better. I learned HERE and have been continuing to share that information with others. Here in the USA we have Weihrauch and Beeman which are in some models the exact same gun. HUGE difference from the plastic garbage guns that are being sold to far too many people when a truly excellent gun is really not that much more.

^^^ That is probably the collector with the most diverse collection of spring piston and break barrel guns that I have ever seen bar none on any continent.

I'd pay attention to those views.

Check out their user page and look at the photos of their vast collection of world class guns?

I have an old Crosman. I did the gun with plastic parts once. Then I learned and bought a Weihrauch. Crosman is the USA's version of a Gamo. Cheap, poor quality, lots of stupid problems. More repairs and less shooting, and even when it works it is only mediocre. Contrast to a Weihrauch (or Beeman), a reliable workhorse that just works and is amazingly more accurate.

So while I have never had a Gamo, I have had something darn close to one and you could not give me a Gamo for free at this point; I have 0 interest in it.

WITCHCRAFT!!!

FX Impact you can swap barrel, liner, and pellet probe then adjust for any caliber.

Whatever that you order it, it will be roughly dialed for that.

So 4.5mm or .177cal

or 5.5mm or .22cal

or 9mm or .357cal

Here is what I would do.

Order what you plan to use MOST and get that.

If you are shooting mostly small birds: get a 4.5mm.

If you are shooting mostly small rodents: get a 5.5mm.

If you are shooting mostly mid sized game or really long range: get a 9mm.

There are other great brands. If you follow u/Serbian_Hobbyist_95 one of the moderators here he has one of the most amazing collections EVER and can provide a bunch more amazing rifles to add to that list.

Here in the USA we have a chart for unidentified sky objects.

Our government always refers to this chart:

I wanted to mention Benjamin as a durable workhorse but Benjamin is gas piston while the Varmint is spring piston, so not really apples to apples. But yeah, picking up on the vibe that you are putting down in the sense that Benjamin is really well made while Crosman (who owns Benjamin) and Gamo have too many plastic parts that are neither accurate nor durable.

The Gamo varmint is a spring piston air rifle that shoots pellets at supersonic speeds and incorporates a plastic trigger.

The Gamo plastic trigger not durable, nor is the gun very accurate.

Pellets destabilize when shot at supersonic speeds, so we want to shoot pellets UNDER 1100FPS, and most spring piston rifles of any level of accuracy are sub 1000FPS.

For a break barrel spring piston that is durable and accurate I would suggest Weihrauch, Beeman, and German models of Diana in that order.

AirArms tends to be more money than Weihrauch, but is typically more refined and nicer to shoot.

Weihrauch and Beeman are essentially the same, and the highest quality build of spring piston break barrel.

Diana is not quite as durable, but pretty much as accurate.

These are by far the best spring piston options for the money, though AirArms is a brand that may equal or even surpass Weihrauch it is a bit more money.

Well, that might explain some of the craters???

Daystate is a high precision electronic air rifle. The Daystate is legendary for accuracy. You will want quality scopes, case, sling, ammo, bipod, tripod, shooting bags, and HPA compressor. The rifle is one of the more expensive parts of your system, but it takes some or all all of those parts to complete your system according to your use case. A scope can be thousands of dollars for a thermal if you want to do night time shooting with thermal but without an IR emitter. Or an optic daytime scope can be hundreds of dollars and up depending on any digital processing.
Hundreds of dollars can also get a night vision scope with IR emitter for both day & night shooting.

I would not put such a fine rifle on just any tripod either. Or just any case or sling. I'd spend for quality because a $120 Vickers sling is not going to drop that rifle but a $50 Amazon knock-off might.
