Training rifle suggestions

[bullseyeny]

I am interested in purchasing an air rifle to practice smallbore shooting in the basement. I don't want to spend a fortune. Any suggestions on guns that are still serviceable, affordable, and accurate.

Choose something with like holding points, trigger and sights is wise. This will help you switch back and forth.

A co2 or compressed air powered rifle lets you shoot more with less disrupting to position.

Spring powered are generally lower cost and need less support gear.

Your budget will guide you. A used daisy avanti 853 can be bought for 100 dollars. The compressed air sporters like the cz 200, air force edge, crosman 2000 and the daisy avanti models are available in the US but these are 500 or less used with stock sights. Lots of air rifles for sale on this forum.

I have a (semi)match training AR I love to bits: an Alfa Proj CO2 rifle. Its very light, so harder to keep still. Shifting to yr regular heavy gun will be a blast than!
Tau also makes very good co2 rifles.
Older co2's can leak nowadays cause of old seals.
Or the good oldie springers; FWB300 etc.

For cheap, it's hard to do better than the World-beating Walther LGR. Lots of them around, too.

If you can't "10" with IT, nothing will help you.
