The Hatsan Zada HCZADA22 delivers precision shooting performance in a reliable spring-piston platform designed for small game hunting and target practice. This .22 caliber air rifle combines Turkish engineering with practical features that serious airgun enthusiasts demand.
What Makes This Different
The Zada incorporates Hatsan's proven spring-piston action with a rifled steel barrel for consistent pellet stabilization. Unlike basic break-barrel designs, this rifle features an anti-bear trap safety mechanism and adjustable trigger system. The synthetic stock resists weather damage while maintaining zero through temperature changes, delivering 800+ FPS muzzle velocity with standard .22 pellets.
Key Features
- Spring-piston action generates 800-900 FPS with .22 caliber pellets
- Rifled steel barrel with precision crown for enhanced accuracy
- Synthetic black stock with textured grip surfaces
- Adjustable trigger system for customized pull weight
- Anti-bear trap safety prevents accidental barrel closure

Field testing shows consistent 1.5-inch groups at 25 yards with quality pellets, making this rifle suitable for pest control and small game hunting within 50 yards. The break-barrel cocking mechanism requires approximately 35 pounds of force, manageable for most adult shooters. Weather-resistant finish handles outdoor conditions without corrosion concerns.
