Things I liked:This is the right gun for me. I have heard all the talk about it being hard to cock, to big. Well for a 6'5" guy this is the toy for me. .177 cal, 10.5 grain pellets are a tack driver in this gun. Takes squirrels right out of the neighbors tree 2 yards away. Had to get a longer distance gun since the old Gammo chased them father out of reach.By Darrell from USA on 2011-07-28 15:20:31

Things I would have changed:Make a better trigger. I will be ugrading mine.
What others should know:I know this gun is discontinued but it still can be found in some stores. If you are less than 6' and 200Lbs, look eslewhere for your next gun. It's man sized.
Things I liked:Power: Awesome. I purchased this for Grackle and Pigeon control and it has done the job with spades. Accuracy: After initial sitein it has been a tack driver. I was expecting to have a 250 to 500 shot shoot in period till it settled down. It shot right out of the box....very suprised!! Craftsmanship: Incredible!! Mind you this is my first adult air rifle so this may be the norm for this type of air rifle. But it is a nice peice and well made! I have read about the flimsy trigger but I have no problem with it what so ever....once I learned the creep of it before the break it is easy to predict when it will break. Scope: I like this scope and once I locktited the screws there hasn't been any problem. Shoots where I aim every time. I have taken grackle with it off of the power lines out to 60 yrds from a support (usually the fence) and the 22 cal 14.3 grn pellet drops them like a rock.By Jack from USA on 2010-11-23 10:57:17

Things I would have changed:Nothing at his point.
What others should know:This is a nice air rifle. Magnum power and it is heavy but that keeps it steady!! Firm cocking but manageable. I personally break the barrel and load the pellet before I start the cocking. I saw a video of a break barrel rifle that was discharged wil trying to load a pellet in it......took have of his knuckle of the thumb off!! OUCH!!!!
Things I liked:Good value for the money. The mil dot scope is nice. I bought this gun for shooting woodchucks (.22 cal). My 30-30, though effective, was drawing too much attention. Never shot a springer air gun before, so it took some adjusting to my shooting technique to be able to shoot this gun accurately (see artillery hold article). The gun is very accurate when you find the right pellet combination. No problems up to 40 to 50 yards. After that, it's more my technique that needs help than the gun. The 2 woodchucks I shot this afternoon were both head shots at 35 yards. 2 the other day were head shot at 10 yards...all quick kills. Great gun for small game.By Customer from USA on 2010-06-18 22:33:56

Things I would have changed:I wish it shot like my center fire rifle, but that's just the nature of the beast. Works fine for what I need it for though.
What others should know:I searched for recommendations for pellets for this gun without much luck when I bought it. So here's my experience in case it helps someone else. I've shot 200 to 300 rounds since I bought the gun. I've tried Benjamin Discovery's, Crow Magnums, RWS Superpoints, and Predator Polymags. The Predators group the best for me especially at 40-50 yards, and are lethal on woodchucks. The Crow Magnums also grouped pretty well, but are heavy and don't have nearly as flat a trajectory as the Predators, so it makes it much harder and more critical to get the yardage right to make an accurate shot. The Predators work best for me as an all around hunting pellet, even though they're the most expensive of the bunch. The Discovery's and the Super Points just didn't group as well at the longer 40-50 yard shots.CommentsBy Customer from USA on 2010-06-24 22:02:19 0 
One more note: as stated by others, add a GRT III aftermarket trigger to this gun. I did that this evening and it is a real improvement to the stock trigger. Follow the instructions as it will require adjustment to work properly after installation.
Things I liked:It was easy to sight in at 35 . I was able to get 1 M.O.A at 35 yards! I was able to shoot a starling at 40 yards and then at 50 yards! Comes with a very nice scope. And a decent wood stock.By Beth Ann from USA on 2010-06-04 23:05:35

Things I would have changed:I wish it was made in America. A little cheaper would be nice but it is worth every penny. It is a little heavy at 10 lbs.

Things I would have changed:plastic triger but I did not buy it for its triger. I am quite please with the plastic triger and the great performance i get from this weapon

Things I would have changed:plastic triger
What others should know:great power in the 177 cal benjamin super streak but it also come in a 22 cal version but I feel the falcon hunter has no equal in the power of the 22 cal but the benjamin has no equal in power and looks in the 177 cal super streak. so I have the best of both worlds
Things I liked:the benjamin super streak is one powerful 177 cal rifle. I have the walther falcon hunter in the 22cal . and I love them both. the benjamin is total power with a touch of class! from the wood stock to its sleek design to the nice scope that comes with the riffle.By gene minniefield from USA on 2010-04-20 12:46:29

Things I would have changed:little plastic triger, no big deal .power -great looks and accurate as hell what more could u want for under 300 bucks
What others should know:If u want a powerful as hell 177 cal pellet riffle with great looks and very accurate look no further the benjamin super streak. rabbit raccoon crows dont have a snow ball chance in hell
Things I liked:Looks, feel, power, scope. This is a very good gun right out of the box. You can check out the video I posted along with this post. This was the first 25 shots from this gun, each time making a few adjustments to the scope. The last target shows two different shots 1s & 2s.. After the 2s, it was getting to dark to continue so I left well enough alone for now. The targets were old albums set up at 42 yards and the bulls-eye a 3/4-inch circle. When I get around to tweeking the scope, I expect to put at least 3 out of 5 in the bulls eye. I did another test yesterday at 36 feet, knowing it was going to be low, but 5 shots punched out one big hole smaller then a quarter. I'm very happy with this rifle so far!By machine from USA on 2010-03-27 10:29:21

Things I would have changed:The trigger! I seen other complain about the trigger and found out why when I received the rifel, its "HARD" pulling. But being there is an aftermarket trigger, its really not that big of a deal. I'll wait and use it a while until the gun gets well broken in before making any changes though.
What others should know:I think I read some posts where the trigger was plastic? The trigger on this rifle is metal, though the trigger guard is plastic. After checking out the video, check out my review of the Gamo Socom Extreme if its posted, big, big difference in performance between these two guns, though I think the Socom had a real "problem".
Things I liked:it was very accurate right out of the box it must have took me 5 minutes to properly sight the scope and dropped a wild pigeon at 35 yards, right after i was shooting pennies in half at 20-25 yards. the wood frame is very well done.the trigger could have been better but it aint too shabby. the scope is a 6-12 times 40 and is of great quality for this type of riffles , it zeros rather easy and it stays zeroed with the help of a locking piece right below the adjustment knobs, the cross hair lights red or green with 5 brightness settings each. the barrels breaking force is excellent for such a powerful riffle, did i mentioned powerful? because in deed it is !!By Richard from USA on 2010-03-02 03:59:52

Things I would have changed:i didn't like the plastic trigger guard and the front and rear sights are plastic as well
What others should know:mines took about 250 shots before it was fully broken in so be patient.riffle is rather heavy but it feels great. in my experience the rws super domes 14 grams had the tightest groups out of all the ammo i've tried. by far this is the most accurate air riffle i have ever shot. i will super tune it in the near future but for now im enjoying it a great deal- 123 ... 89

Things I would have changed:The report is stout. My neighbor thought i was shooting my .223 blot action in the backyard. First shot made me jump. This thing is loud!
What others should know:Loud! PBA pellets are extremely lightweight and can be seen tumbling and corkscrewing past 40 feet by spotters as they create a supersonic shock wave. Use heavy ammo for the accuracy. Whatever you hit will be destroyed. This rifle is able to penetrate a 1 1/2 inch phonebook, a 2 inch thick cooler wall, and go 1 inch into a railroad tie in the same shot! Not a toy, mistakes could be lethal. Be safe. Have fun.
