Update to my previous review. In my experience, dont plan on using any mags with this gun,, stick to the sigle shot tray. If someone would offer metal mags for it I would try them. Tried three 3d printed mags and have had to destroy 2 of them as they have jammed pellets in the receiver. Have had to ever so carefully use a jag to clear the jams. I am always careful to pull the bolt all the way back in one fluid motion etc.. I can only assume this would be the case with all of the Diana guns that use this same receiver and mags.
Pros
Accurate
Cons
No reliable mags
Ordered the Beeman 1085 for my wife. The last one they had leaked so I opted for the Chaser rifle kit and they threw in a mag. Much appreciated. Did not expect that much but this thing is great. The hoards of starlings showed up at about the same time as the gun arrived and my wife has hardly had a chance to shoot it. I had been taking them out with my break barrels but this thing is so light quiet and accurate, that I grab it first. Packs more punch than I thought, and no recoil. Using a cheap package scope that came with one of my break barrels but will be putting a CQB Bugbuster on it. Also ordered three 3D printed mags for it as the Seneca/Diana mags arent reliable. Looking into shims for the hammer spring to get a little more power also.
Pros
Light, quiet, accurate, excellent trigger
Cons
Magazine
Great Rifles and super quiet to shoot ,...close neighbors will not get mad!!
Pros
very happy with this purchase, so happy in fact that I purchased the Diana chaser in a .22 version as well! these Rifle kits are sweet! be very careful assembling these and take your time. They both zero'd in in just a few shots. both shoot a little high the first couple shots, and after that are dead nuts for about 40 to 45 shots. I believe if these were the very first air rifles that I ever bought, I would not own as many as I do! they are that good. Both are very accurate, and both can be used for varmints at about 30 feet max and target shooting probably up to 50- 60 ft staying very accurate. Sale price is what convinced me to buy! I like shooting single shot at a time, so the mag cartridge does nothing for me. now I am looking for a bipod for them. seriously great quality guns ... make sure when you are changing barrels, the seal at the very end of the barrel is in place! directions do not tell you that.
Cons
would like a case to come with it that will fit the assembled rifle so that you do not need to break it down to put in the original case...once assembled, I refuse to break mine down because once I get them dialed in, I do not want to throw it off. both barrels should have the breach seals in place so that it does not get assembled without one by accident, making so you need to disassemble and assemble again.
stay with lighter pellet weights i am shooting with 14.3 grain pellets the 15.8s drop off faster as the co2 drops also put a drop of oil on co2 cartages that keep seals lub.I have a 177 cal on order, just have to wait 4 it to come in stock. Would be nice to have a magazine included with purchase.
Pros
just a great pellet rifle accurate fom fist shot till about 38 shots then it drops off a bit. the magazine's are a bit finnicky to load but they do work with practice.
Cons
larger volume magazine's would be great
Diana guns just WORK out of the box.
Pros
Threaded barrels
Cons
A bit beefier stocks
Soo silent with Buck Rail suppressor. This silencer fits perfectly. And now the gun is in silent mode. Love it. My Chases has a Red dot sight, Maple Custom products 10 round mag. With JTS Dead Center 22.07 GR pellets it does 640 fps, that's 20 for! The hammer spring is preloaded with two 4 mm rubber shims.
Pros
It's cheap, fun. Lots of modifications to make. Accurate. Powerful enough
Cons
The 7 shoot mag is bad quality
i have had many air.guns but none as accurate as this . 22 cal. chaser. i put a cheap 3x9 scope on it, zeroed it at18 yds. haven't touched the scope since. it does shoot a bit high first 4-6 shots. Now waiting for the 177.cal to be back in stock. I can get 35 good shots before they start dropping off then time to chg co2 cartridge. great little air rifle, cant beat the price!!!!!! also airgun depot beats everyone else price!!!
Pros
everything
I have a PCP rifle, But this is so light and easy to bring along. No need for bottles or heavy compressor.
Pros
Super fun! Did some plinking in the garden. 20 yards and 10 shots within an inch. Mounted a cheap reddit. This is in the pistol configuration. I will mount the long barrel in the weekend.
Cons
Both barrels were extremely dirty. Glad I clean them before shooting. DuPont wax based lubricant is super for the barrels and save o-rings. The screw on the barrel band was loose and got lost under the porch when I lifted up the barrel. Got new one at Amazon. M3 20mm.
From roughly 40ft, open sights and with a 3-5mph crosswind, I had about 1" group with 5 mags.
Pros
Dead on accurate out of the box. Extremely quiet and backyard friendly.
Absolutely love it. While each gun is different with ammo, had the best accuracy with .22 Predator GTO lead free domed 11.75gr.
Cons
Rifle barrel was extremely dirty, spent about an extra 20 mins than expected cleaning it. But results were worth it.

greg from USAwhat's the best weight of 22 pellet for this gun
asked Bean from USAMy .22 caliber Chaser really loves the very economical H&N, (Excite) brand "plinking" wadcutters that weigh in at an even 13.0 grs. A tin of 250 pellets costs only about $6 but shoot very, very well in my Chaser as well a handful of my other .22 caliber break barrel and PCP air rifles.
Dennis from USAWhere can you get a bit stock for my chaser? I found a moderator bit everyone's out of buttstock accessorie
asked Roy from USAWhat's the FPS on the .177 rifle?
asked Tom from USAIs it possible from CO2 covert this gun to PCp rifle
asked Kayhan from CanadaYep Google pcp conversion kit
greg from USAI'm new to air gunning. What is an indexed mag?
asked Tim from USAWhen you insert a pellet and push the bolt forward the next pellet will be indexed into place and move forward into the breech
Roy from USAWhere can I find the complete specs on the .22 cal rifle kit? I didn't find anything about the indexing mag or where to get it.
asked James from USALook up Diana Chaser magazine
Roy from USAdid you receive a indexing mag. with your kit ?
asked larry from USABuy Diana Stormrider mags
Roy from USANo. Magazines are additional.
Mark from USAWhat caliber is best for grouse and squirrel hunting

Aaron from USADoes this shoot darts?
asked Scott from USAI'm looking at getting the 22 cal version what's the best distance you get out of it?
asked DcottIs this a magazine based gun?
asked scott merloThis kit comes with a magnetic single shot loading tray that fits behind the breach. You can purchase magazines for the Diana Stormrider rifle and they will work in the chaser. .22 cal mag holds 7 rounds, .177 holds 9
Aaron from USACan unscrew the silencer on the rifle barrel and screw it on the pistol barrel?
asked Erwin from GuamYes, it will go on either barrel. It comes on the rifle barrel and is LocTited on, but will unscrew. Heat the area where the threads are. If you use a pliers, be sure to wrap the end so it doesn't get scratched.
Marshall from USANo
Wyman from USAIt sounds like USA market Chasers have loctite on the moderator threads. People have successfully unscrewed the moderator and it will screw onto the pistol barrel. The pistol barrel has a cap screwed onto the threads.
Aaron from USAIf I bought both .177 and .22 could I interchange the barrels
asked Justin from USAPhotos show left handed bolt action. Is it reversible? Also, is a multi shot clip included?
asked KBFApparently a clip is not included but the clip for the Diana Stormrider rifle will work in the Chaser and must be purchased separately. There is a left hand breech block that can be purchased to convert to left hand.
Aaron from USADoes this come with a carry case.
asked Alan from USAIt comes with a soft case that will hold the components but not the assembled rifle
Aaron from USAIs it possible to mount a scope? If not, how accurate is the targeting of this gun?
