Break Barrel to side cock, as well as dual ammo. I got em all what's your price range.
$35 Walmart. Daisy powerline 880
$100 Beeman silver Kodak X 2. 2 barrels.177 and .22
Best value unreal value. Like all these I've never used the package scope
Under $200
Benjamin Sheridan variable pump.
Good old U.S. Made been around forever. They say it will 8 pumps. I brought this for house shooting, quite the workout. Nice gun for 160ish there's better choices.
A lot of piston units in this price. All made in China. They claim more velocity and quite. Comes down to all drop a squirrel in its tracks. Like them I have the Mayhem and it's a great gun. Here's the one that's fairly new that's an advance.... a 10 shot auto mag.

$250 to $300
RWS 34 German quality and accurate. For those thinking break barrels won't last here's one of em.
RWS 48 here's your sidewinder much easier to cock but north of $400
Will typing on an iPad, wish I still had a lap top.
Bottom line I've got and shoot all the above except the Gamo. The $100 kodiak is by the front door. I doubt most won't go though 1000s of rounds on their guns. If your not killing pest or hunt what you going to do? Target shoot? I guess one of these scoped at he 25 to 35 yards gets boring quick. I usually just do that to check the scope.
