About the Walther 1250 Dominator
The Walther 1250 Dominator is a pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle chambered for .22 and .177 caliber pellets. Fed from an 8-shot rotary magazine and cycled by a bolt action, it draws from a 300 bar (4,350 psi) removable air reservoir that delivers roughly 100 useful shots per fill. The free-floated, rifled barrel and regulated valve give it competition-grade consistency, while the ambidextrous synthetic stock and 11mm dovetail plus Picatinny scope rail make it a popular field-target and small-game platform.
The Dominator name marked Walther's push into the high-power regulated PCP market, competing against British field-target rifles like the Air Arms S510 with a German-engineered 300 bar system rated for around 100 shots per fill.

Distributed in North America by Umarex USA. Offered in .177 and .22 calibers, and in a Field Target (FT) configuration with a laminate stock. The removable reservoir sits under the barrel, so the barrel is free-floated to prevent point-of-impact shift as pressure drops.
