Great review, the 350 mag is mtmy fav gun, i have both the Ntec and spring 350, i actually prefer the spring version, put in a 135 spring, tophat and took out piston weight, its now shooting 920 fps, with a quick shot cycle.
Just a suggestion, but would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see you do the chrony test with the scope lens caps open and the accuracy test with them closed. Think that would bring a whole new level of excitement to the vids 😂. Another awesome video man! Keep up the hard work!!!
I think 95% of the air rifles I have purchased , I 1st have watched a review you have made on it! I really appreciate and respect your opinion when it comes to this sport! Your hard but yet fun work has been helpful to many! God bless ya brother! And thank you 🫡
I really appreciate you taking the time to leave the comments. It does take a bit an effort to keep this going but getting the support from you and others makes it all worth it! 👍😉
Hi JC, beautiful Diana Magnum Break Barrel. The T06 is one of the best, I was amazed by the excellent performance, Using an Impact Absorbing Mount, I had the idea that they are not very effective, in terms of accuracy. excellent video as always, all the best.
Hey Buddy...the T06 is a really nice trigger! I am working on my own new style of absorbing scope rail. It is still in the early stages but maybe by next Christmas I will have it ready. I can only hope😉👍
Great review Sir. Thanks. It made up my mind. The best thing I like is it’s weight 7.6 lbs. I have a 350 magnum premium springer. Deadly accurate gun but too too heavy at 8.2 lbs plus Hawke Airgun Scope. So I am going for this purely to take advantage of the lightness. The only thing I don’t like is the fiber optic sights. Prefer metallic sights. Both now will be .22 Thanks a lot for providing clarity.
I'd prefer they left the name as that famous old name of Diana,... but hey things change ( I guess ) so RWS steps in, oh well, I have to get used to it. I`ve been wondering what their `gas ram` rifles were like, now I know. Yes I do want one, and whaddya know, these ARE in stock at my favorite dealer here in Canada. Thanks again for your time and efforts JC, always appreciate your reviews.
i googled up what RWS means.... It looks like it does mean "Rheinisch-Westfälische Sprengstoff" according to what dk1677 found. Translated into English, it simply means "Rheinland-Westfalia Explosives". Rheinland-Westfalia is a state in Germany and is probably where the comany is located. But, RWS is basically the company that served to import or export the Diana-made guns. The never did manufacture them. It looks by the rest of the name it deals largely in other areas though.
Feuerkraft according to a friend of mine is pronounced Foier Kraft - I have two RWS / Diana 350 Classics in 177 and they don’t have the name Feuerkraft stamped on them , but I do know they are identified by that name? Anyhow great review , I have a Diana 350 NTec in 22 a limited model that came with a black wooden stock , beautiful rifle. At first it was a mess because the screws from factory that held the stock were shorter than needed and would come loose, once that was fixed the rifle shoots very accurate , precise and powerful- shoots the CP 14.3 at 930 fps . The only downside is that the cocking effort is more like 45 lbs . The great thing is that it hardly kicks , has no vibration or any noticeable torsion. Definitely a rifle for hunting, not plinking all afternoon.
I almost bought this one, but couldnt find one. Are you reviewing 2 different guns? Opening video had a front sight, then it reverts to no front sight with shroud....very nice review..
Nice rifle I used to have a model 52 I hocked it 12 years ago when I needed the money I sadly regret doing that . I will look into the 350 magnum though the side lever was cool
We have all done that with guns. My two most painful transactions...sold a Dan Wesson .357 30 plus years ago in the academy to purchase a Sig 226. The DW is worth a fortune now. The 2nd. Sold a Browning Citori over and under 25 years ago for peanuts. The Shotgun is worth $$$ now.. But when you need some cash it served the purpose. But we all have those deals in life 🤔
Great video and excellent review process. I just picked up an RWS model 34 in .22 and it's absolutely wonderful. I considered the 350 but the reviews were almost universally positive on the 34 so I went with that. Its doing 760fps average with the 14.3 grain Crosmans (it hates the super "H" points for some bizarre reason) and will easily group 3/16-5/16" at 25 meters. I'm sold on the Germans now after also owning a Hatsan 95. Thanks for the videos and take care and shoot straight.
@@AirgunDetectives Thank you sir. I have a single question that I hope that you can answer about RWS rifles. You are obviously well informed and knowledgeable about airguns, and I can't find any information elsewhere on this subject. My model 34 (T06 Classic) has serial #25066808, but it also has another # stamped on the compression tube : 458810. Can you please tell me what that signifies (if anything) I can find no other mention of #s stamped on the compression tubes of any other 34s after RWS discontinued date stamping their rifles. I'm sure that in all probability, you're constantly bombarded by questions every day and are extremely busy but if you do by chance find the time and the inclination at some point in the future I'd sure like to know what that number means. Thanks again for the videos and stay safe!
JC - Guys we're gonna go for grouping, dead center doesn't matter to us.. Then proceeds shooting a tight grouping, yep dead center. Awesome shooting as always Detective!
@@AirgunDetectives Yes mate I'm good thanks, are you? I got 2 of those Glock 19 silencers delivered from Miami the other day, very happy with them so thanks for sending me his link brother 👍🏻
Great timing for this review. I am looking at a Walther Parrus or the Diana 350... and I am still on the ledge. It looked like you had the Diana ZR recoil scope mount... would you recommend it? Cheers
"Pretty good group" that was a 1/4" group at 20yds. with a Magnum air rifle!! I should say it was a pretty good group. Quality rifle, materials and workmanship. I have a 350 Mag springer that is a hammer. I shoot 18 to 20 grain pellets, most accurate for me. ScottinPa.
I own s Diana 350 N-Tec Panther Magnum and it weights 8.2 lb. (recently bought it) For some reason it is hard to shoot trough iron sight, have to lean way over the stock in order to sight it.
Mmmm...I guess you can always install a scope. The fiber optic open sights on this one are really easy to pick up, even for my eyes. Thanks for tuning in👍
If you like this rifle. Check out the XS28. Mike Melick at Flying Dragon Air Rifles are offering those with two barrels (.22/.177). And you can order it "FullyTuned" which I would highly suggest 😉👍
That rifles shoots itself. That's like driving a BMW or a Mercedes compared to a Hyundai. Not that there's anything wrong with a Hyundai, the others are just simply better.👍
@@AirgunDetectives that's hilarious I know exactly what you mean I tell people is the difference between driving a Corvette or a Chevette that they both get you there just in different form and fashion and function.
its nice that your videos have intro from your family or community but suggestion plz name them as well.and good job your vides are entertaining.i was 5 year old when i got into airguns how old were you.
I have the 350 mag in both spring and ram, much prefer the spring version, easier to tune, i put in a 135 wire spring, tophat and took out pisto weight, now shoots 14.3 22cal around 920 fps, you cannot beat the 350 for power and accuracy.
Hi I’m new to the air gun world. I have a Diana 350 magnum, in your video I see your rifle seems to have like a suppressor been looking online to try to find a name for the peace. If anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
im looking at getting one right now but unfortunately cant seem to find one i like the look of it and the way it preforms but whats the scope and scope mount your using in this video?.
I have that same gun but in .177,can get it to group for crap,not sure if its because i am using 2 piece mounts or what,what scope and mounts are you using on that gun?
Thank you for posting. I have one of these rifles. The T05 Trigger blade is plastic and broke. I need a Trigger blade. Would you happen to know a source where I can buy a blade?
Not sure, but if I had a choice between a gas and Spring piston I always lean towards the spring. Inexpensive to replace and easy to obtain. Plus you have after market options and much more dependable 👍😉
Air gun depot or pyramid air. I've bought at least 4 air guns there. Those are 2 big aur rifle companies. Make sure you make the purchase through the phone is a lot easier.
So what's up with the availability? Are they trying to discontinue this beast? Not running their plant? Kind of frustrating because the Chinese copy of this legend is readily available
Absolutely no barrel droop and the open sights are amazing. Barrel droop is not that common with these regardless what you have heard. It is actually somewhat rare. 👍😉
Unfortunately the guy that made those is no longer selling them. I have had those for a couple of years. I recently double checked and he stated it was too much effort. Hopefully someone else will make something similar. 👍
Martin, there are several....what do you want to spend and what are you going to use it for?...email me and I can give you a more detailed response info@airgundetectives.com
They are both great rifles and feature the T06 trigger. But the obvious difference is one is a Breakbarrel and the other is a side lever. The general rule when looking at different calibers in the same rifle model, you lose about 100-150 fps in velocity, on average, as you go up in calibers, but you most likely gain FPE.
Got one on back order 😣 hard to find indeed. I thought about getting a hatsan but to get this power and accuracy you’d be paying almost as much, and ehh the Turks make good stuff but their guns don’t seem to hold up.
@@woofman4796 300 + shipping. It's 22 caliber. Nothing wrong with it. I took the sights off, but I would send them with the rifle. BTW, I am the old "SpringPistonRifleFever" "LoneWolfStrengthTraining" channel. RUclips took me down for not being politically correct. Probably should contact me on my channel, JC might not want us doing business on his channel. I will do a short little video on the rifle without shooting, and maybe shooting it later today, but the wind is hurricane force today in South Dakota.
I love this model. I’ve owned mine for about 2yrs now. Never failed once.
That was awesome, the firing cycle looks very smooth. The T06 is one of the best. Thank you, JC !!
That is a fun rifle. You are right...I really like the T06! 😉👍
Nothing like an awesome German made RWS Diana riffle! Excellent review of this unique beautiful break barrel airgun. Congrats.
I Have exactly that gun, And it’s deadly accurate, great review!!
Thank you for watching and I appreciate your comments 👍

Same here, i prefer Diana not RWS😮💨
Why should you change an 125 year old name fgs?

I was just told that Umarex no longer imports Diana. Also the stock currently used is not ambidextrous. Great review.
I believe they're all German/Euro market Diana's being imported now. RWS seem to stop making percussion caps recently.
Feuerkraft according to a friend of mine is pronounced Foier Kraft - I have two RWS / Diana 350 Classics in 177 and they don’t have the name Feuerkraft stamped on them , but I do know they are identified by that name?

have one. love it. will shoot through 1/2 inch osb plywood with no problem. have a good backstop.
You mentioned this rifle has a life time warranty. If I understand it right the warranty on this rifle is 2 years. Please correct me if I’m incorrect
This one is on my buying list. Been checking it out for a while. I would want a spring version though. I just don't have faith in gas pistons.
If you like this rifle. Check out the XS28. Mike Melick at Flying Dragon Air Rifles are offering those with two barrels (.22/.177). And you can order it "FullyTuned" which I would highly suggest 😉👍
Please review the Diana 470 target finder ( so many mixed reviews )

About 10 years old and thanks for watching 👍
Awesome. Can you please tell us what is the telescope is this? I ahave been looking for a telescope for my magnum rifle
strange they'd switch to gas ram. I also find that with guns of the same power the springers are easier to cock.

Thank you for posting. I have one of these rifles. The T05 Trigger blade is plastic and broke. I need a Trigger blade. Would you happen to know a source where I can buy a blade?
Looks like you have a noise reducer on the end of barrel? The Diana 350 magnums that I see for sale have a sight on the end of the barrel??
Seems good. But what’s the difference between Classic and Premium?
That barrel looks whitish like SS. How exactly is it?
Hi Detective, What is going on with the N-TEC technology? it seams like RWS / Diana no longer offering this option
Not sure, but if I had a choice between a gas and Spring piston I always lean towards the spring. Inexpensive to replace and easy to obtain. Plus you have after market options and much more dependable 👍😉
Can u tell what a difference between Diana AR8 ntec and diana 350 magnum ntec.?
Awesome 👌
What would be a good airgun scope that would be perfect for this rifle?
I would like to see some 15mm spinners at the Max range you shoot at.
That could be fun!👍
Is 350 magnum panther black synthetic also ntec?
Where can you safely order air guns online?
Air gun depot or pyramid air.
I've bought at least 4 air guns there.
Those are 2 big aur rifle companies.
Make sure you make the purchase through the phone is a lot easier.
So what's up with the availability? Are they trying to discontinue this beast? Not running their plant? Kind of frustrating because the Chinese copy of this legend is readily available
But if I get metallic sights would anything change in its performance?
Would be curious how it does with open sights. Also , did you have to shim the mount to compensate for barrel droop or are the rings anti droop?
Absolutely no barrel droop and the open sights are amazing. Barrel droop is not that common with these regardless what you have heard. It is actually somewhat rare. 👍😉
Buenisimo
How does this compare in quality to the Beeman R9?
My biggest negative is the price when I compare the performance to my tuned Ruger.
Ruger rifles are all plastic
Diana rifles are mostly steel rifles.
Quality is always more expensive.
@@elvergontemeto714 My Ruger is all wood and steel with an adjustable trigger. Get your facts straight.
Once you try one 350, you’ll know why they cost more ,, cheers
Did you put a silencer on if so what model?
Could you share where you get your muzzle brake cocking aid? Thanks
Unfortunately the guy that made those is no longer selling them. I have had those for a couple of years. I recently double checked and he stated it was too much effort. Hopefully someone else will make something similar. 👍

What fps of new version
What i dont like on springer is too slow to load& shoot...when reloading its noisy..enough for a sensitive wildlife attention.
Does this rifle have any barrel droop?
Do you have a review on the crosman fire np?
Maybe one day...👍

can you tell me the price??
what scope are you using in this video?
They don't make it any more..It was an "Nsirus" It worked on the rifle because of the scope mount.
