When I opened the box, the first thing that struck me was how hefty and well-made this rifle is and the solid wood stock has a nice satin finish to it.

I’d read reviews about the scope being crap and having to constantly adjust it and for the life of me I have no idea what these guys are talking about. Once I put about 50 rounds through it to break it in, I zeroed-in the scope and now it’s almost too easy picking off squirrels. As long as I do my part with the crosshairs, they’re goners.

This thing hits hard. I shot it at my shed door – 1/2" thick particle board – and it went right through it from 10 yards away, using Superpoint pellets.

I found this rifle shoots the Predator pellets (Nylon ballistic-tipped) very accurately. I don’t have any sandbags for an accuracy test but the real-world results speak for themselves…I’m picking off squirrels left and right like it’s nothing. And they just drop dead in their tracks.

My one complaint about this rifle is the trigger. From the factory it’s absolutely horrible. You’d pull back and pull back about 1/2" and never know when it’s going to fire. Once I adjusted the trigger to get rid of all that takeup, I pull back and it stops…at that point any more pressure lets it go. There’s a screw you can turn to take out all that slack, it’s in the instructions and simple to do.

I bought mine at a local store on sale for less than I’ve found online. The salesperson told me not to dry fire the gun or I’d ruin it and the instructions say so as well, just a heads-up.

Great gun, great value and I give it a full 5 stars. I’m really pleased with it.

Customer Review: response to trigger qestoin in earlier review
no to the qestion in another review i have 55 year old benjamin pump bolt action airgun and its a beast i got it from my father
it has a hairpin trigger that a slight touch will set off also i have shot quit a few other pellet guns and it depends on the gun about the trigger most of them dont take that much of a pull if u open up the bottom of the gun (wich i wouldnt recomend unless you know what your doing) you can mess with the sensativity by recalibrating the trigger action

It appears to be an excellent quality rifle. It is made in China though, so we shall see.
