A PCP air rifle for beginners

Diana PCP Stormrider is a recoil‑free PCP rifle that allows anyone to begin an exciting adventure with pneumatic shooting.

The rifle features a modern polymer stock made of a material resistant to damage and weather conditions. A polymer stock is not only lighter than a wooden one but also much easier to maintain. Fine checkering on the pistol grip and the front part of the stock improves the grip and gives the rifle an elegant appearance. The rifle weighs only 2300 g, making it comfortable for younger users and women to shoot. The Monte Carlo stock with a symmetrical cheek piece allows the use of various optical devices and provides a comfortable shooting position for both right‑ and left‑handed shooters. At the end of the stock there is a soft rubber butt pad that ensures comfortable and stable shoulder support.

Diana PCP Stormrider — an affordable PCP rifle for beginners

The rifle is equipped with a precision rifled barrel with a length of 480 mm, which significantly improves shooting accuracy and consistency. At the end of the barrel there is a sound moderator that reduces the sound of the shot and also serves as a mounting base for the front sight. The Diana PCP Stormrider air rifle is a multi‑shot design thanks to the use of a rotating aluminum magazine with a capacity of 9 pellets. After inserting the magazine into the bolt, it is secured magnetically. A side lever (similar to those used in hunting rifles) is used to reload the pellet. Cycling is smooth and light, allowing the shooter to reload the rifle without taking their eyes off the target. In addition to the 7‑shot magazine, the set also includes a magnetic single‑shot tray. This ensures that the pellet is correctly inserted into the chamber without the risk of deformation or jamming. For shooting, it is recommended to use only flat or round‑head diabolo pellets.

Diana PCP Stormrider 5.5 mm is powered by compressed air stored in a steel cylinder with a capacity of 100 cm³. A cylinder filled to the maximum pressure of 200 bar allows approximately 30 shots with consistent muzzle velocity of 185 m/s. The rifle has two pressure gauges: one showing the cylinder pressure and another located under the rifle indicating the regulator pressure. A quick‑connect fitting with a plug connector is included for high‑pressure filling. The air rifle features a pressure regulator that ensures a constant pressure supply for each shot and eliminates muzzle velocity fluctuations. In practice, this means the rifle can fire nearly identical shot strings with consistent velocity. Thanks to this functionality, the rifle shoots consistently, the air supply is used more efficiently (more shots from one fill), and the shooter can enjoy longer shooting sessions.

Diana PCP Stormrider 5.5 mm uses an adjustable trigger mechanism with a pull weight of ~1.3 kg. The trigger is soft, clearly perceptible, and predictable, which significantly improves shooting precision and consistency. Safety is ensured by a manual safety conveniently located within the trigger guard. The rifle is equipped with mechanical sights consisting of a front sight and a rear sight adjustable in two planes. If we want to try shooting at longer distances, a selected optical device can be mounted on the rifle’s 11 mm rail (the rear sight must be removed beforehand).

Diana PCP Stormrider 5.5 mm synthetic is an efficient PCP rifle at an affordable price, offering precision, shot consistency, and great shooting enjoyment.
