These air rifles fall into two categories:</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp;</span></p> <ul> <li><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Single-stroke pneumatic air rifles</b> require just a single stroke to fully charge the gun. They are self-contained, easy to cock, and are highly consistent and can be incredibly accurate over distances up to 20 meters. The power of these air rifles is usually low, shooting relatively light match-grade .177 pellets at 500 to 600 fps.</span><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></li> </ul> <br /> <ul> <li><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Multi-stroke pneumatic (or pump-up) guns</b> require multiple strokes (usually 2-10) of a lever to store compressed air in an on-board cylinder. The advantage is that it is virtually recoilless, a self-contained system that offers adjustable power and velocity. And, being virtually recoilless, it is easy to shoot well. The disadvantage of a multi-stroke pneumatic is that once it is fired, it must be pumped up again. </span></li> </ul>15:T42c,<div style="text-align: center;"><iframe width="560" height="320" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/j5WDyeyBZAE" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div> <p><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Gas ram air rifles</b> operate under the same principle as spring piston air rifles but instead of a spring, use a lever (sometimes the barrel, sometimes a lever under or to the side of the barrel) to cock a pressurized gas strut similar to those used to raise a lift gate in automobiles. These are self-contained, often powerful air rifles that are convenient because only one cocking stroke is required to ready the air rifle for shooting. They can be very accurate (when the shooter has mastered the technique) as well as relatively quiet. But gas ram air rifles are also inherently challenging to shoot well, and require airgun-rated scopes. The cocking effort can be challenging in the more powerful models.</span></p>16:T45c,<div style="text-align: center;"><invalidTag allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="320" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_ApkG7hylZQ" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div>

<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifles</b> use air from a SCUBA tank or a high-pressure hand pump or compressor that is stored in a high-pressure reservoir on the gun. Olympic target models, many hunting airguns, and many long-range varmint air rifles use this powerplant. This powerplant generally delivers highly accurate, consistent, and virtually recoil-free operation. Some models offer on-the-fly power adjustment. The chief disadvantage of these air rifles is that they are not self-contained, and so require extra gear &ndash; a high-pressure pump, compressor or SCUBA tank &ndash; to recharge the onboard reservoir. They also can be very loud, but many are now being offered with barrel shrouds or moderators that quiet the report considerably.</span></p>4:[["$","$L11",null,{"content":{"contentElements":[{"columnCounter":25,"systemCode":"cetRow","contentElementTypeCode":"cetRow","innerElements":[{"contentElementName":"HTML Content Area","contentElementTypeCode":"cetHTMLcontent","sortOrder":0,"contentElementID":"","innerElements":[],"customStyleClasses":null,"componentLayout":"Full Width","contentBody":"$12","bootStrapLayoutClass":"col-lg-12 col-12"},{"contentElementName":null,"contentElementTypeCode":"cetVideo","sortOrder":0,"contentElementID":"","innerElements":[],"customStyleClasses":".inpage-video","videoTitle":null,"videoSrc":"https://www.youtube.com/embed/XiEJ5nVUyfE","videoFrameborder":null,"videoWidth":"100%","videoHeight":"100%","videoDescription":null,"playOptions":"In Page","videoAllowfullscreen":true,"videoAllow":"accelerometer;
