AEA HP Varmint PCP (Full Review) Tuning Guide +Accuracy Test (Folding Stock Tactical PCP Air Rifle)

[@robert7984]

While I had a few issues with my first AEA, the replacement has been 100% on point. I own the HPSS .30 and its been stellar. No jams or loss of accuracy or power. I'd feel confident recommending this company to a friend.

I love the power aea puts out,but nobody ever talk about the accuracy, I need to see 50 and 100 yards accuracy

[@christianshannon3943]

I noticed you turned you power way back to get an average of 840 +- FPS . I kept mine at full power and putting the pellets into the same 3/4” hole at fifty yards. Shooting perfectly right out of the box . It shoots a different slug with almost the same grouping just a slightly different impact from the bullseye with 1 1/2” group.

[@phillipmendiola2100]

Great review , real nice shooting NATE , AEA put out some real nice pcp air rifles

[@DrSaminstine]

Great review! I am taking notes. You are always very thorough.

[@mountainairgunner2067]

I owned an HP Varmint and ultimately traded it in for a Challenger Pro. It's a reasonably well made, high power air rifle with two big issues (in my opinion): first the trigger is hard and gritty (but can be made better by polishing the surfaces and swapping the springs) and the bolt is extremely hard to cock. Forget about fast follow up shots or letting the kids give it a go. If you can live with the bolt and have some basic DIY skills, the HP Varmint can be made into a better than decent shooter.

[@AirgunChannel]

Yeah..it's only $599

[@Oregon-airguns]

@@AirgunChannel you can buy a CZ 455 .22lr for $599 one of the most accurate rimfires ever made. Might be comparing apples to oranges. But IMO there’s nothing budget friendly about a 600 air rifle. There shouldn’t be major flaws at that price point. With that said, I do own a fx maverick sniper and a Vulcan v3 700mm .30 Both are great guns!! But they’re over priced no doubt.

[@bertbccfu9564]

@@Oregon-airguns a lot of people say the same thing of course you could spend three hundred bucks and get a Ruger 10/22 but that's not the point I have plenty of powder burners ,I enjoy shooting my air rifles I can thread on a suppressor and shoot right in my backyard and no one even knows a lot of people do not have the acreage to be able to shoot powder burners in their yard, agreed it's an expensive Hobby but if you're into it you're into it I take it a lot of times as a challenge especially hunting with air rifles, when I go small game I could just as easily just grab the Ruger but there was something about hunting with the air rifles

[@bertbccfu9564]

@@dangerous8333 I don't see them as poorly made, I have been shooting the hp and a Challenger for two years the only issue I've had was one broken valve pin and they are working on improving the materials for the valve pins right now, of course there are some things that could use some improvement but that being said they are coming out with new generations of their products all the time so at least they are a company that reacts to customers comments seriously and improve their product, they are a relative newcomer in the air rifle industry and no one else is really doing what they do for the prices that they charge, anything similar to their guns is at least twice or three times the price, so they could go all out and get crazy such as adding dual regulators a lot more customisation but then that cuts out the guy that was already buying their guns, which is the guy that doesn't have the money to drop 2 Grand on a air rifle

[@bertbccfu9564]

@@dangerous8333 as far as wasting 600 I do not see it that way I would buy another HP varmint in a second and I'm glad I took a chance on them I would shoot against an fx or a lieshy at 50 yards any day, 3/8 or 1 whole groups at 50 yards are the same whether they are shot out of a $2,000 gun or a $600 gun

[@Light_357]

Hey Nate do you remember at approximately what pressure the guns tank was at when the velocity hit the 840’s and you refilled? Trying to determine how many fills I’d get out of my bottle. Thanks man

[@AirgunChannel]

I can't remember. Sorry. Probably I refilled at 150. Wherever the bottom of the gree is.

[@markweinsheimer9129]

they are nice guns. most of the time what I look at they are out of stock. like the channel, you crack me up on the way you talk to the metal what ever it is lol.

[@leojones7266]

Another great video review

[@AirgunChannel]

Thanks Leo! -Nate

[@eduardoguillen6385]

How many shots do you get out of full tank?, also would you recommend this or the challenger pro? For a person new to the sport. Please and thank you.

[@jrsoto1000]

My Varmint loooves the 33.5g NSA… definitely worth trying them out if you can.. I shoot 50-150 yards daily and they are amazingly accurate though the .25 Varmint. It’s all I shoot through it.

[@jrsoto1000]

another thing that I love about this rifle is that after 6 months of daily use and after putting it through heavy brush daily, I’ve never had to re-zero the scope. This is such an underrated rifle.

[@jrsoto1000]

Who needs a regulator when you have 55 shots on tap within the green and hardly any if any drop at all through out the shot string. 👌

[@bertbccfu9564]

@@jrsoto1000 one benefit of the regulator that I am using on my varmint is that I upgraded to a 500cc carbon fiber bottle and now I fill to 4500 PSI, I get a lot more shots and there's a lot more just ability

[@jrsoto1000]

@@bertbccfu9564 nice, I won’t mess with mine because I’ve learned to love my rifle as is. Anytime I think about tinkering with it I just remind myself that “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it”. 😅 I have been looking for a carbon fiber bottle though if you know of anyone that has one in stock I’d like to know. Thx

Love my .25 cal hp varmint

[@josephpeters2367]

Do u recommend this rifle over the air avenger bullpup 25cal ?

[@FarmerFpv]

The problem is going down to such a light .25 cal pellet you're losing all that FPE for accuracy which defeats the purpose for having all that power, IMO. I never had luck with AEA past 45 yards other than the Challenger series which are pretty accurate. Great for pesting up close though, you can really stone them varmints. Thanks for the review, champ. Keep up the great work. FX wildcat BT next?

[@bertbccfu9564]

The problem is past 45 yd the pellets are already losing too much Steam passed 45 you need to switch to slugs, 4 long-range I've been shooting 32 grain Griffin slugs I haven't done a hundred yards yet but at 75 they perform pretty good way more than enough for hunting even though ethically I'd probably only stick to 50 yards for hunting with a .25 cal

[@bertbccfu9564]

And I agree with you with the light pellet statement I started out shooting the 25 grain jsb then quickly switch to the 33.95, I run a regulator on my gun though so I can turn the regulator back and still use the 25 grain for Target use
