Unfortunately, Beeman sold out, the name appears on a lot of made-in-china products, I think only "Beeman Precision" (Weihrauch) is still made in Germany.... but if you want a really high end one, a big name in air rifles is beeman and they are simply the best IMO.
Depends, what is the application?Was wondering where can I get a good powerful pellet gun.I had a daisy and it sucked.Then went with a Crossman but had to keep pumping and it broke.Are there any good models out there for around $100.00

They ARE NOT in the $100 range! They look bad ass and i have wanted one for a long time. However its a lot of cake to drop for an air rifle.
If you think Airforce guns are expensive, you haven't looked at the big bore custom rifleshttp://www.airforceairguns.com/AirForce-Airguns-Utiltiy-Rifles-s/1.htm They ARE NOT in the $100 range!

Definitely check out Pyramyd Air, and especially their airgun reviews blog. For your purposes, I wouldn't focus on velocity ratings, but instead look for reviews reporting reliability and accuracy.Just found this post and was wondering what rifle you guys would buy/have bought in the under $400 range. I've been looking at the Gamo's and Benjamin Nitro pistons in various models so far. I want a nitro piston .22 and curious what the best one in this price range is for plinking up to at most 50yds. What pellets are you using for the best accuracy? Not alot of experience in air rifles and there is alot of deception in advertizing of these various rifles so I'm looking for people who shoot these regularly and have them very well dialed in.
there are a lot of 400$ pellet guns. end use is key. for general plinking out to 50 yards you don't need to spend 400$Just found this post and was wondering what rifle you guys would buy/have bought in the under $400 range..

most of the ones I'm looking at are under $300 realistically. the more I read about the Gamo's and Benjamin's the more I realize there are going to be alot of +/-'s for each and probably no clear cut superior model.
