    I have used this air rifle to thin out the squirrels in our backyard for over a year now. I bag at least 4 of the rodents a month just from my kitchen window. It is accurate and has stopping power to drop them even at 25 yards. Choosing the correct pellet has been very important for accuracy and killing power. I have found the domed hunting pellets to be the best. I too have had to tighten the large screws near the break of the barrel. No big deal and to be expected. The scope is nice however, I have to adjust it more often than I would like. It seems to loose its zero quickly. I love this gun and with the low price I am willing to overlook things like tightening screws and adjusting scopes.

    A great rifle for the price.
    It needed better scope rings. After replacing the rings.
    I was shooting dime size groups at 30 yards.
    This is a good shooter.

    The Daisy Powerline 1000 has the weight that makes it feel like a real firearm which is appropriate since it demands the same respect as a real weapon though the power line is not a actual gun the weight of it the pull of the trigger and the accuracy makes this pellet rifle great for hunting small games or clearing your property of small rodents or birds. the screws coming undone due to the action of fireing and recocking the rifle.

    Got this from Academy for $69. Expected all of the negatives I read about in the reviews- got it for the price and power. Pleased that accuracy was good when dialed in with barrel sights and even better with the scope. I didn't even have to adjust the scope, it was perfect after mounting (rare!!!). I have not had any of the problems others have had with screws coming undone, have put about 300 shots through the barrel and am more impressed with it as time goes on. I'm probably more careful ...

    Overall great gun. Its a very powerful gun when using the right ammo. Good deal for the money i got mine for about 120 at walmart. The scope is good but i lost the screw thingy so i took the scope off. good open sites. tru glo rocks!!!!! its accuracy is ok. great nok down power. took out a huge gray squirrel this morning.
    The break weight is bad. my friend has a big cat that can shoot faster and is about the same price with a lot less break weight. accuracy i ok but not that bad.

    Three things were helped by the silicone.Seems to absorb some of the recoil, helped with balancing the rifle, and got rid of that hollow sound when firing.

    I love that thud you can hear from over a hundred and fifty to two hundred yards away. It is not the quitest air rifle I've ever owned but it sure does have some knock out power. I have been hunting for squirrel, rabbit, birds, snakes, and all other critters with this rifle and I can honestly say that I am impressed with it's performance. Iv'e never had it jam once, which isn't saying much for an air rifle, but I can tell you that you don't want to go hunting in the rain. Barrel gets kind of rus ...

    Well, I got this air gun from the academy for $49.95 during a 4 day sale. It included the scope and the mounts. It is very loud while breaking in, but quiets down a lot after as few as 50 shots. The trigger is just awful, so unless you just want to hunt at close range, or you are willing to work on the gun (which isn't too bad, but no walk in the park), stay away from it. The power is awesome though. This is my first spring-piston rifle, and I'm super impressed with the velocity. I have bee ...

    Got two over the Black Friday Shopping Craze for $49 each.
    Can't beat them for the price. The Daisy Powerline 1000 is a good gun just really needs some factory tweaking. It has the heft of a full size rifle. Carrying it around for a few hours can be tedious if you are used to lighter rifles. It is definitely an adult toy. Plenty of power, accuracy is not bad after some practice. Decent gun for the money.

    Very pleased with my Powermate 1000. Isn't perfect, but it works quite well for what I use it for....keeping the squirrels out of my pecan trees.Killed 18 so far with my old 1958 Sheridan pellet gun and six more with the Powermate 1000. Seems to work pretty well.

    I've got everyting back together but one item. I can't make out the placement for the spring in the trigger assembly. > Not the regular round spring that you don't realy see behind the trigger. But the longer spring with the straights and other bends. It's the only thing holding me back!

    I have nothing to complain about this rifle excepting the trigger, which is manageable once you get a feel for it. Having put 50 slugs down it, i can now pull the trigger back to within a few mm of the actual sear so as to let the shot off with minimal disturbance to my aim.
    I have seen nothing better in terms of accuracy, i shot a ragged hole 10mm (25/64 for you who oppose progress) from sitting at 10yds.
    The kick was the first thing i noticed when i tried it out in the shop, but it is a very l ...

    I bought the Daisy Powerline 1000 from Acadamy Sports for $79. It came with a 3-9x32 scope. My first session (after the big bang first shot) consisted of 5 scope sight-in shots. The first shot was off target. The fifth shot was center of 1" circle at 20 yds. The next five shots were all in the circle. I was amazed at this accuracy for a low cost rifle with no break in. Subsequent shots were not quite as good, but I think I may have been getting tired just from cocking the thing.I have an ...

    Shoots great, but the kick is heavy for an air rifle, the screws are loose, it is very, very loud and handling could be better. Oh, and the little plastic trigger is wretched.And yet, there is something to like about a rifle that can drop a squirrel at 30 yards with ease and that holds a one-inch pattern at 40 yards, all the while costing less than $150.Yes, I like it more than I don't. I'd recommend it, but if noisy guns that kick, handle poorly and that have bad triggers don't appeal to you, b ...

    All round, a good air-rifle. It does kick but, not all that bad. You just have to compensate a little for it. On ine the trigger si a bit of a hard pull agbout half way through and that can through off the shot but, I intend to try to soften it a bit. It's probably just the one that I got though so, don't let that prevent you from getting one. I did change out the scpoe for a more powerful one too. The scope that it comes with is good but, it is accurate enough to use a much stronger one. I can ...

    I would not recommend the Daisy Powerline 1000. It kills whatever it hits but it kicks really hard, I found it to be very unreliable and not very accurate. I group 5" at 20 yards

    I am not sure if I just got that one that got through. The locking pin(?) on mine snapped so it won't cock. Actually it cocks but won't lock. Simple enough to replace, I'm holding it in my hand right now. Daisy said they would repair/replace it for $58.00, not bad. I would rather replace the broken piece. Overall a great gun for the money, even if I have to send it in.

    I bought this rifle, new, for $56. I think I got the deal of the decade, given its quality. Extremely accurate, and easy to shoot. I really like this rifle. My first shot, at 45', was a bulls-eye. It feels solid and performs like a pro. I got rid of the scope as the mounted sighting system is great
