👍🎯 I love this rifle. Excellent consistency, shot count and accuracy. 5 year warranty. It's not a big deal to adjust the reg. It's not like I adjust the reg every 5min. The power adjuster will be used more than reg adjustment. 3,000psi fill pressure is fine. I bet this rifle will still be going strong when my FX has been in the shop 5 times. Iam blown away by people's negative comments. Benjamin has done an outstanding job with the Gunnar. I would hunt, or bench shoot with this rifle. Especially hunting while setting still. For EBR the speed is perfect. God bless America 🇺🇸

[@mr.sleekllama7473]

Hello! Own this rifle aswell, im wondering how many shots you get going from 3000psi to 2000? I only get around 30.

[@regsparkes6507]

I used to think that Benjamin was a middle to upper end in Crosman's line up, BUT, not so much here. Front lower pic. rail too slight for the rifle's weight. ( said Rick ) Kind of heavy to be used comfortably ( for me ) to hunt with. Somebody said that the tank has to be removed to change the regulator settings! Now for Rick's shooting,.. only one point here,.. it's a pity that you didn't use a new target for each pellet test. It took a shot or three before I could see where the pellets were hitting, Maybe if you used some 'peel and stick' targets so we could see the shots clearer? Other than that it's not a 'bad' rifle, but I feel there may be some out there which have higher quality, even if the buyer had to pay a few dollars more.

[@coprguy1]

Thanks for a thorough review!

[@joshuagibson2520]

Rick, please reach out to AGT. They seem to have some good stuff. I'd love to see your take on some of their products.

[@That1E_K1129]

Yes!!! The Vixen is a beautiful rifle! 🥰

[@bryanschwertner3585]

You may have already covered this but I wonder if the chrony is messing with barrel harmonics.

[@AirGunWeb]

I’ve tried with and without. No difference. Cheers AGW

[@ElvisRocking1]

Oh man im looking forward to this rick.

[@bigearl8687]

Benjamin knows that the airgun world has changed, so why not give the 25cal @ least 60fpe....

[@AK-ky3ou]

At least 50 geez benji….

[@heithwatkins]

Turn the reg up and you may get it.

[@chrisreilly4006]

Seems like a nice gun, but to justify 1,000 dollars for it doesn’t sit well with me. It barely has the power to shoot pellets to their stable speeds. It definitely isn’t a slug gun but I do wonder how much more velocity you can get from that gun.

[@heithwatkins]

I honestly think it's a good rifle. I'd love it more if they made 177cal. The shot count would triple and Nielsen 12.5 slugs would fly 1000fps. I'd still buy it in 22cal. These stocks are never as solid as a traditional one. And it dosen't matter what the brand is.

[@chrisreilly4006]

@@heithwatkins Yeah it does seem like a good rifle but again.. I feel it’s over priced by quite a bit. Spend another 150 and you can get a FX Dreamline with many more options, and many many mods to be had.

[@gmanneod8085]

Thanks Rick, Nice rifle good power and excellent on the consistency. Like you said, It needs some things tweaked. I would love to see the Kral Puncher Jumbo Dazzle Synthetic reviewed and compared because of it's $600 price point.

[@FirstStateAirgun]

3000 fill is fine by me G-Man👍🔫

[@gmanneod8085]

@@FirstStateAirgun Agreed but just because it can go higher in pressure doesnt mean you have to fill it higher. Lots of Avenger owners fill their 4300 PSI rifles to only 3500.

[@chuckhunter1410]

It is a kral... pretty disappointing that Benjamin can't bring something new to the table made here...but its all about the quick flip and make a buck!

[@AR-uj3js]

Can't decide which to get the ..22 or .25 for plinking, squirrel, rabbits, racoons, skunk, ground hog etc

[@heathhalfhill6401]

Can’t agree more with the shipping industry brother. They destroyed a brand new case for my LCS, broke the straps off inside, and the but plate! 2K$+ and no respect at all for our purchase’s.😡🤬🤷‍♂️💯

[@robertguzman3190]

Yes i too am looking forward to see our video before i buy lol

[@drekceldude]

There seems to be a concensus that a lighter trigger pull is better, or a sign of a good trigger, not always true, how it breaks and feels and is it repeatable is a sign of a good trigger

[@craigcook1571]

I wouldn’t mind hunting with it, it would be good for hogs, coons, and even squirrel if need be, but it’s a tad heavy for my liking for a squirrel gun. I wonder how it handles slugs?

[@AK-ky3ou]

Sweet review

[@refuztosay9454]

Picked up mine at midway for $500 and they threw in a hand pump and free shipping.

[@AirGunWeb]

That's an AWESOME deal.. I hope you enjoy it. I need to get mine out and do some shooting. Cheers AGW

[@jeffb7255]

I want to see this gun tweaked a bit.

[@brorjordas1979]

A very good review! I were interested in this one. Not so much anymore. The price that gives you a hope for a better rail and a solid buttstock.. Njeeh... And a few other negs that a few commenters made.. If it'd been a 500 bucks gun...maybe.

[@drekceldude]

It's hard to judge a rifle from just one video, but TBH It's not very impressive, the Avenger from my personal experience is more accurate and is super adjustable, and much much cheaper. If the Benjamin Gunar came out 2 years ago, then different story, but in 2022 there's cheaper and better options. Or just spend $300 more and get a FX Dreamline.

[@edgarlombera7066]

Yeah this gun is too expensive for what it delivers….

[@deanflory4520]

What they need is a 3600 fill pressure, a heavier bipod att. Carbon fiber bottle,a folding stock,and then price it at around 1450 ,we are tired ,of your 3000 lb. Fill get up with the rest of them,go all out,we want a real gun,put some real effort in it.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@tylerlawlerDEVGRU]

[@ezrabrook3993]

[@axion8788]

Low power, low PSI air supply, small tank, must disassemble to adjust reg, not especially accurate, flimsy construction, poor balance and well over 8 pounds. Gauntlet 2, Avenger, Kral (and others) absolutely beat this gun at less than HALF the price. Silly.

[@heithwatkins]

Please quit holding back....... Tell us how you really feel...........🤣🤣🤣

[@axion8788]

@@heithwatkins Did I misstate something in the review or the manufacturers' specifications?

[@Oregon-airguns]

Gun ain’t worth a dime over 600 bucks.

[@airshootist]

Ehhh.... having to take off the tank WITH TOOLS to adjust the reg is a major, major dealbreaker and absolutely foolish design. Price point is too high for what it is, also. Hatsan will kill this gun in the market. Take a lap, Benjamin.

[@terminadorairgunsandoutdoors]

If it looks like a AR-15, why wouldn’t you hunt with it? Soldiers hunt humans with AR’s all the time

[@Oregon-airguns]

For that kind of money you may as well spend another 3 or 400 bucks and buy a gun that has over 40fpe

[@Light_357]

Hope Benjamin isn’t banking their year on this gun. Not even being slightly facetious when I wonder why anyone with 1k to spend would buy this particular gun? 300 avenger is just as consistent and more accurate.

[@jmac4718]

Pinker only. Not good enough for bench, not accurate enough to varmint hunt.

[@mattphelps7049]

I'll pass too many issues for a 1000 rifle. Has some good features and consistency but low powered and average accuracy.

[@robertrmckerrow1111]

$1,000 for a at tops 50 yard air rifle? Looks like the Benjamin Kratos in a AR chassis. Unpowered too, doubt it slings slugs, naw, pass on hunting and purchasing.

[@MrLeviathan666999]

You said you tell us the facts not fluff, and yet you said you like it is a 3k psi gun, come on ! , for those who can't/wont fill to 4.5k psi it would have been the same thing if it could be filled at 4,500 psi!!, it is definitely not worth 1,000 dls, maybe 500.

[@Soldis-vq5xg]

Benjamin Gunnar weak...FX Impact M3 is King.☝💣
