Diana XR200 — Power and Caliber Specifications
The XR200 delivers exceptional performance across all four calibers. In .177 caliber (4.5mm), muzzle velocity reaches 295 m/s (940 FPS) with 24 joules of energy. The .22 caliber version produces 280 m/s (950 FPS) with 41 joules of energy. The .25 caliber delivers 246 m/s (807 FPS) with 60 joules, while the .30 caliber is the powerhouse, reaching 220 m/s (721 FPS) with 75 joules of energy . The 280 ml tank fills to 200 bar (2,900 PSI) and provides up to 360 shots per fill, depending on caliber and power settings . Total length measures 1,090 mm, barrel length is 548 mm, and weight sits at approximately 3.1 kg .
Altaros Regulator and Integrated Compensator
The Altaros regulator ensures consistent shot-to-shot velocity, making the XR200 one of the most consistent PCPs in its class . Hard Air Magazine testing recorded an average Standard Deviation of just 2.60 FPS across their test pellets, which is among the best results ever measured . The integrated compensator built into the carbon fiber barrel shroud reduces noise and stabilizes pellets for improved accuracy . Dual pressure gauges—one rotatable for the tank and one for the regulator—allow easy monitoring without taking your eye off the target . The Diana XR200 Premium features this same regulator and compensator system in a wood stock configuration.
Superb Trigger and Cocking System
The XR200’s trigger is one of its most praised features. The two-stage trigger is fully adjustable for pull weight and sear engagement, with an average pull weight of just 9.5 ounces (270 grams) out of the box . This makes it one of the best triggers available at this price point. The trigger also features dry-fire capability, which is typically found only on much more expensive target rifles . An optional Olympic trigger with just 100 g pull weight is also available . The cocking lever is smooth and reliable, with testers noting “not even one hard-to-load pellet” during extended testing .
Accuracy and Pellet Preference
The XR200 delivers excellent accuracy with a wide variety of pellets and slugs. In .22 caliber testing, the rifle achieved outstanding accuracy with JSB Jumbo Exact 14.35 Grain pellets, Crosman Premier HP 14.3 Grain, and Daystate Howler slugs . The rifle comfortably exceeded manufacturer velocity claims, achieving 1,014 FPS with RWS Hobby pellets and 35.92 ft-lbs of energy with JSB Jumbo Monsters, which is 16% above the claimed spec . Owners report excellent accuracy out to 50 meters, with one user noting “pellet on pellet at 50 Mts” . The Diana XR200 .22 caliber version is particularly popular for its balance of power and shot count.
