Top 5: Underlever & Sidelever Rifles
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лип 2024
- Underlevers and sidelevers are the cream of the springer crop because they combine all of the benefits of springers - self-contained, easy to use, reliable - with repeatable accuracy and less hold sensitivity. Each one of these guns is worthy of being passed down through the generations as a family heirloom. Airgundepot.com brings you our Top 5 Underlever and Sidelever Air Rifles.

This girl could sell me a broken rock.
Damm you okay man
I think the diana 48 sould of been in there also. it has great side lever cocking and is accurate out to 100 to 125 yards with a 19 gr slug. it is a power house of a airrifle. plus the german design and build quality
I think you guys hit it on the head.....great choices on that Top5 but I feel HW 97 should had been number 1 gust cuz it's a iconic air rifle over the air arms. the history behind the HW air rifle it's at a higher standards.....but great pics guys...👍👍 Airgun Depot you Rock... hows the foot feeling??

Hi from England. I bought the air arms tx200hc, it is the best underlever springer I have ever owned. Great channel by the way. The lovely lady always brightens my day.
I think they were going for quality guns in this top 5. There are so many underlever/side lever guns that could have been included but I think they hit the nail on the head for quality and craftsmanship. Yes, a lot below have said why not any of the Hatsan's and I agree I own the 105X Torpedo in .25 and yes it's a great solid gun, accurate and well built. But it doesn't hold a candle to my Weihrauch HW97kt! No comparison whatsoever! The Weihrauch HW77/97k and AA TX200/Prosport are on par with each other for power and accuracy, but the Air Arms series of springers are just gorgeous not to say the Weihrauch isn't but the AA have that Weatherby type bluing and are available with a gorgeous Walnut stock whereas the Weihrauch only come in a synthetic and Beechwood stock. I wouldn't have changed this list at all. Now if they did this again with a hunters perspective in mind, Hatsan would definitely be on the list!
I thought you were gonna miss it out! Thankfully it made number 1 :)
I would have to add the Air Arms Pro Sport in walnut. Best looking spring gun by a Mile! (ALMOST as pretty as the Host.) Not to mention Sublime accuracy and shooting cycle.

Very nice collection. There were a few I have considered. Thanks, J!
That is a great top 5 and I agree with your number 1 as it is a great air rifle.
My TX200 HC was the most accurate springer I ever owned. I'll take my PCP's any day though.
CampFussell: Couldn't agree with u more. I just can't shoot springers so I have mover on to PCP. Wish i could find the ultimate (springer, gas ram, or what ever )cause PCP is a pain in the ASS.
I’ve both the HW97 Blackline STL and the AirArms TX200MkIII and while the HW is set-up as my main gun, I can see a day where the TX200 will be taking over that spot. It’s such a well defined, behaved springer.
I own almost 20 air rifles. I was going to get a big bore air rifle because all of mine are .25 caliber and under ... So...as I was thinking about a higher caliber gun and thinking about all themoney spent on all new ammo for that gun ..I was on the edge of thinking I cannot afford another one. So....Then I saw it... the Sumatra ..With this gun I could get as much power or more and use my already sufficient amount of ammunition for it and get more power than a .35 caliber weapon...YES! 99.46 foot pounds of Muzzle energy from a .25 caliber rifle...So I bought the Sumatra in .25 and 500cc of air , an absolute powerhouse. Loved it so much I bought the carbine model also. These Sumatras will shoot a pellet clean through a 2X4 ! That is crazy beautiful power and that is what I love. Target shooting out to 100 yards and beyond and doing it easily. I really wanted a Eunjin model Sumatra but ended up with Seneca .. whch I guess bought the company from Eunjin.. Okay That's enough... I LOVE AIRGUNS!
Sounds like you have a fine collection, sir.
Great video AGAIN......LOL I agree #1 is the best I have had mine for several years with no problems.
Diana 52 is an oldie but goody. I have a 52 from the early 90's still running on it's original spring and seal. My later model 48 runs just as well and is very accurate.
Just picked up my No1 gun. Air Arms TX200HC.
It’s a beast and a rifle I’ll never sell.........probably. 😂
Great review, having owned 3 of your top 4 I am in complete agreement
Agree with this top 5 👏
Excellent review thankyou !!
Yep, good list! Have the RWS 460 & the Air Arms Pro-Sport. The Pro-Sport ties with the TX200 for first place, in my opinion.
Great video - very nicely presented and produced 👍
Thanks for your video. Great information.
Glad you liked it!
Best list ever
best teacher thanks very much
Wonderful video, the list is not missing any springer. The top 5.
For me air arms pro sport is the best springer out there.
I have both the airarms tx200hc and airarms pro sport absolutely love those guns
@@sap3055 just got my TX200HC. Wow, what a rifle. 👍
No1....HW97K. No contenders. Game over. 👊👍
I have the HW97, HW95 and Pro Sport. All excellent guns. But accuracy and ease of use (once you get used to that cocking arm) I have to give it to the Pro Sport.
Your presentation is awesome
Thanks for awesome video; Germany, and England are phonominal with airgun building, and design...All I own are from these 2 countries....Although my favourite is the Wiehrauch HW97K, Thanks...
Nice job
Thanks
Awesome very good stock
VERY NICE
Hi, love you and love your videos
I have a TX200HC in .22 and my other "higher end" underlever didn't make the list. It's the Diana 460s "junior partner" the 430L underlever in .177. My other fixed barrel springers are a B3 in .177 and a TS45 in .177. The TS45 reminds me of an SKS in pnuematic form with similar sights and the ability to mount a sling, with an easy cocking effort, and about 600fps it makes a great all day plinker
Would not trade my TX200 22cal HC for any other Springer!!
but although I haven't tried a couple of the other rifles that are on the list. I always keep an open mind🤔. But try not to open my wallet as much as I'd like to. It Ain't Easy!!! There's a lot of you that know what I mean! I really enjoy this top 5 when it goes my way. LOL.👍🇺🇸✌
Wish they would put open sights on them ALL
My favourite Diana ❣️
My choice 460 diana
Very Entertaining...
Many years ago I did a lot of research to find a powerful reliable accurate reasonably priced spring rifle and that's why I choose the Diana 460 Magnum. And I'm very proud that is on this top five list and it belongs here. With the 16 grain pellets produces 24 ft lb of energy and is accurate
The Diana 460 Magnum should've been the #1...
Yes because is the best all around deal you can get. Power, accuracy, build quality, and price
A very well made pellet flinger! I loved mine before some knuckle head stole it!
One of the best spring guns made .
The air arms prosport should be in there near the top
Who is this beautiful & delightful young lady. She is definitely a big plus to your staff, and I do so love her smile & demeanor. You have found a winner in this lovely lady for your very pleasing, & informational videos.
I am a past BR50 air rifle competitor around 2005 world competition. I will continue watching your channel.
Thanks for the kind words!
In Florida, we shoot bullets, and kiss our 2nd. Ammendment Conceal license daily. Well, maybe not daily. I do like shooting pellets in the backyard. To get the distance I need to 70 - 80 feet, I set up my shooting stand in the house, and open the back door about 1/2". I then set my target such that I have a straight line to the bulls eye. No sound from my rifle, but still the thud of the pellet hitting the target. I don't use this much anymore because it takes out the wind factor on my 7.9 gram pellets.
Keep up the good, little lady. You are a "sight for sore eyes".
Please tell me you are Not Myopic, or "near sighted". I will explain if you wish.
S. FLORIDA
Very nice gan thanks
Tx 200 MkIII Walnut all the way!!!!!!!!!
Have you ever tried the tx200sr ? The sr stands for semi recoiless
Hi from the Netherlands i have the weihrauch hw97kt .22 its the best springer !
Diana 460 magnum is great gun.,
All 5 are are bad ass springers , I'll take 4 and 1 ,
Your picks were good but I have a number 6pick to ad hatsan150 torpedo under lever powerful and very accurate and is built like a tank and heavy as one but its my go to air gun never fails and hits hard.
JUST RIGHT!! AA TX200 MKIII IS THE BEST SPRING AIR RIFLE OF THE WORLD!!
AA tx 200 mk2 22.cal weichrauh 97k weichrauh 80 and 95 is the best air rifle.
I have the Walther LGU Hunter and the HW97k shown there. I would put the Walther against any of the other 4 in consistent accuracy. I also have the Walther LGV. You alway here shoots like a pcp. Well the Walthers really do. They don't care how I set the on the bag or where my hand is. My PCP's don't get shot much anymore as I just target shoot. Drawbacks are you will need to order Walther adjustable trigger($20.00) or the Rowan match trigger(50.00) and these guns are pretty heavy. Really thought the Walnut Pro Sport would be number 1 just for looks alone.
Good effort
Great video Jacque! Your personality and performance has added a big spark to the Airgun Depot Marketing. ; - ) I watch, enjoy, and like all of Airgun Depot's videos. I would suppose there are many budget friendly airgun owners like me with multiple airguns who's purchases are sub $300. Airgun Depot's high end Top 5 videos are always like watching the Super cars you can't afford, "it's a nice dream but I'm still not buying". Could Airgun Depot make an addition to these "High End" Top 5 videos and add one more sub $300 Gun and call it "Budget bargain" or "Bang for the buck". Just saying!!! It may get some sales you won't get advertiseing only the SUPERCARS of the air rifles category!!
Second 😎 have the hw97k
Hw77k all the others were modelled of this rifle plus you have fixed sites so if you damage your telescopic sites you can still shoot and it is very accurate as is the 97
I own a HW97 K with fiberglass stock and red dot sight. I have rarely shot a more precise air rifle. Thanks for sharing and greetings from northern Germany. 🇺🇸🇩🇪
One of our favorites, but I've never shot it in a fiberglass stock!
@@airgundepot I guess I've made a slight translation error. It has to say "polymer stock," of course (my bad 😉) It's called HW97 K BLACK LINE here. I don't know if the air rifle is available in the US in this version, here in Germany it is. And yes, it is really very precise. I hit five shots at a distance of 10 meters (about 11yds) in a shot group the size of a penny on the target. I think that's not bad... 😁😁😁👍
@ekim andersom You may have a point there, Mate. But here in Germany, shooting ranges for air guns are only 10 metres (30 feet) long. Field-target is rarely offered here as a sporting discipline. 😁👍🏼
I have a tuned blue/gray laminated stock like in the video in .22 This German gun can compete with PCP's in accuracy. Mounted a Hawke 4-12x scope on her and can shoot quarter sized groups out to 40 yards easy. I LOVE THIS GUN!!
N 1 very accurate, dimes all day long ,,awesome rifle
i think diana 56th should be at top its the only rifle which has no recoil at 24 fpe and have accuracy like pcp air rifle... i have both diana 56th and hw97k i started buying airguns when i was 13 years old after saving my pocket money for 1 year i bought my first airgun which was hw97k later when i was at high school i saw diana 56th and i bought it ...it really replaced my hw97 and benjamin murder( which is pcp air rifle ) ...i believe d 56th is the only springer which is capable of 100 yards plus hunting and i shot 1000s of crown more than 100 yard with it ....when ever i go for hunting i take my pcp and 1 springer as backup in case if my 30 cal Hatsan Hercules stop working due to any issue i will continue my hunt with my springer which is d 56th besides that it shoots like pcp as a springer with 20 to 24 fpe of output its very beautiful as well its almost 7 years i have this beast i love to keep watching its design and finishing for hours when ever i hold it i don't wanna put it down ..in short i think i am in love with d 56th
Is youre diana 56th the .177 or the .22 caliber
Hi,
I’m interested in the Diana 56 TH as well and I was wondering, I know how heavy it _is_ but I would like to know how heavy it *feels* ? Is it comfortable to shoot standing up? Are the ergonomics good?
Thanks!
Jonathan van Tonder definitely not the .22 shooting that far
I actually like this list, Pro Sport and Hw77 aren't there but they shoot similar enough to the TX 200 & HW97K that they don't need to be there really and the Disnas and LGU are excellent.
Air Arms Pro Sport!
What no Diana 48 ? What's up with that ?
The 56th will shoot as well as a 21ft# PCP with some tuning and practice.
Super like
I have both the TX200 and HW97, I personally would say the 97 is the better gun out of the two but both superb tbh.
Gud one
Hope they continue making lighter better more powerful and accurate above all leaver and break barrel air rifles. Thanks I need a bigger safe.
@DrMossydog it costs a lot more in the uk. Makes it more expensive than any except the tx prosport. And looking at the few reviews ive seen of it online. Its no where near as accurate . It still a very nice rifle and i still want one
Pro sport ........every time.
Yes, that is a fabulous one!
HW77K SE Forest Camouflage Laminate - end of. Take it from a UK Airgunner; we are the best airgun shots in the world (we have to be, given our 12ft/lb limit). My baby does 11.69ft/lb with .177 H&N BM heavies (10.65 grns) of instant death to any small game (brain stem shots) up to European rabbit size. My go to bunny sniper shot from a rested position - my baby is no light weight when you add the x18 mag scope (and lamping kit if night time fun is on the cards)!!
You have rated the British AirArms TX200 No1, the Weihrauch fans will be baying for blood lol
I just bought the Air Arms Pro sport in .22
You won’t be disappointed.
I shoot a TX200HC and also regularly shoot a Pro Sport. Both are competition winning in their own right.
Enjoy 😉
That was really good they told me tat a very early stage that they are no good for the UK market.
You can buy both the the air arms and weihrauch in the UK.
HW77/97 No1
HW97K won my comparison over the TX because of the huge loading port, put in a Welsh Willy tuning kit for the very best spring air gun experience, very reliable too.
Thumb up for the info. I'm studying my butt off looking for an accurate under or side lever (affordable) air rifle.
I’ve had a Diana 177 about 15 years ago it was a great gun !
Excellent calification. The top AIRGUN DEPOT is the blondi!
Hell yeah. She's the only reason why I subcribed to the airgun depot UA-cam channel. I just don't know her name. 🤣🤣🤣
@@ericgarcia2287 Me too,
he never says his name.
Hello Madam... good to see you again... Thank you for your time to make this video.. I mean all videos... lol.... HW 97k I order from you last year is still my #1 ... cuz I still didn’t wanna get any springer yet cuz I get the best... i about to step up to next level of air rifle.... which the better and acuracy bullpup do you think..???... Wildcat mark 2... I looking at it.. I hope I can bring it home this summer... Cuz at Corona virus’s going on right now, business going down hill.... so just hope things getting better.... once again good to see you Madam....
Hi everyone, does anyone have a solid recommendation for a under/ side lever air rifle under 350 dollars? Al I care about is accuracy in the range from 25 to 75yards. I would like to have the least amount of recoil and hold sensitivity, if any of you have a gun in mind please comment!
For me the number one is a AA pro sport. This gun win all.
Walnut prosport
I totally agree, I have owned the Diana side lever, Hw97k and recently re-purchased my favourite springer the TX200HC! I owned one back in 1996 and wish I’d never sold it, so when it was time to buy another springer, the choice was easy. Yes it’s not the perfect hunting gun as the weight is the biggest drawback but if you can put up with that, you’d take down any small game. I had a HW97 owner tell me the TX trigger is second to the record, I believed this to be personal opinion as they are both amazing triggers. The air arms wins by a hair over the HW97K, a great rifle, due to the aesthetic’s, the deep bluing and gorgeous stock is pretty but not so much practical if carrying through the woods. Still agree that this rifle belongs as the number one springer. I’ve really enjoyed leaving my FX at home to take the TX to the range, feeling that recoil, getting equal accuracy and coming home with pellets. :)
Weiharuch(HW 97) is by far the best overall,accurate and reliable .I have had two TX 200 and both had problems especially with trigger safety.
I have a TX200, the safety works perfectly, you have to cock the rifle fully every time. I agree though it is one area of the TX that should be scrutinized, I think it should be an automatic safety but also manual , If you turn off the safety you need to "recock" the lever arms fully to reengage the safety
My Wiehrauch break barrels are two of the best I own, though admittedly one is "technically" a Beeman. I have an HW50 in .22 and a Beeman R9 in .20cal.
Well... Megatron was a Walther P38 so I went with the Walther LGU. :D
I have 5 top end Spring rifles and this one is the best for many reasons. I sometimes wished I'd have bought it first and not last in my line up!
what gun is it?
@@yourchava TX200
@@Happy-Me. thanks! do you do shoot targets with it? was trying to shoot both targets and ground squirrels and rabbits with it. How is it against critters
@@yourchava I shoot HFT competition with my TX200.
Don't you think diana 54 air king is the best sidelever airgun?
I sure wish the Tx 200 MkIII came in 25 caliber. Since the want a .25, looks like I'll be going with the Weihrauch HW97K.
Nice from Pakistan
Walther LGU varmint
Anyone give me info on the Diane 52 model & how much to repair the side lever,BUT! Its been powered up & shooting more like 17fps so I don't know if the local gunsmith will even look at it, I want to get it back to it's original condition, it's from the 70s or 80s so I think it's worth fixing
I really d’ont know why the pros sport is not in the first position👀
Any recommendations for sub 495fps under levers? High velocity guns require licensing where I live which I don't have.
Many of these are available in low power variations, especially the Diana and Weihrauch ones (Mostly for the German market)
What about Weirauch hw77 ?
I got the weihrauch hw 97k blackline and i love it!!!
The TX200 is very Nice,but i still love the weihrauch more.
THE TX200 has some minor flaws,to me at least.
Airarms tx200hc and airarms pro sport is my favourites
Weihrauch HW97 has to be on the very top undoubtedly
I disagree,,... the Air Arms TX200 is a better rifle, the simplicity of the piston and internals makes it number one. It is the easiest disassembly and modification rifle on the list by far. I have the Walnut stock and it is easiest the best looking rifle of any kind that I have seen
Weihrauch. ALL. DAY. LONG. 🇧🇪
As far as I'm concerned the Diana 460 Magnum in cal .22 is the all time #1...
With an average of 870fps and 25fpe with the 14.3 grain Crosman Primiers I get 10 shots in the same hole at 40yds..and it goes through 1/2" plywood like butter at around 30yds!!!
It likes anything you feed it and prefers the H&N Trophies, Crosman Premiers and the Predator Polymags.
The RWS 460 is the Champ!!!
HW97 all the time every time! Weihrauch period.
Hell yeah!! My tuned HW97 .22 is a tack driver.
Good list. No surprises here.
Has the tx200 safety engaging problem been fixed? Mine has the problem.
Haha. No. It's the best allready
No. It is the best all ready. No compliment greater than to be copied and I hear AirArms started out copying the HW 77...
I'm first viewer. Airguns 4 life!
👍 👍
fair classification...
Only the AA needed a swipe before this review
That is funny I had to go back and look at the video again. You're right they definitely need to wipe down the rifles before they show them. I own a TX200 and it is a beautiful rifle. But much better when it's clean. LOL good eye brother.👍🇺🇸✌
l miss the Top 5.
Number 2 is better than number one read countless reviews
