Page 2 - Beeman RS2 Dual-Caliber Reviews

Dual Caliber, Scope, fit and finish, trigger control, overall quality of product. I also like the weight and the look and feel of the rifle.

Carry case is not a great design. Would like to see more spare parts (seals, etc.). The plastic plugs can fall off (where you tighten the stock) and this is my only real complaint. Not sure why Beeman's don't seem the get the respect they deserve.

Accurate w/the .177 (and deadly - very effective). One shot, one kill. The .22 does require that you re-sight the rifle, but heck, for what I paid, having both calibers for one rifle is an excellent value! I will buy Beeman again, and again. The trigger on this is adjustable, and out of box it is a real treat to shoot. Recoil isn't bad, and the rifle isn't as loud as I was led to believe. I will warn you though - DO NOT fire cleaning pellets through it when your neighbors are around, it sounds like a rimfire when you put one through the rifle (VERY LOUD).

This is my first "adult" air rifle, and I am very impressed. Accuraccy is on par with my rim fires, as well as some of my center fire rifles. The overall fit and finish is good, but the stock is easily scratched. The scope mounts easily and securely, and does not drift.

A better trigger and a more durable finish on the stock would be my only complaints. The trigger is smooth and adjustable, but could still be better.

Plenty of power here, With the .177 cal barrel installed you can shoot completely through three soda cans filled with water, The .22 will go through five. This is a powerful quiet package and will meet the needs of 90% of all air gun shooters. So far all pellets I've tried have been reasonably accurate, the .22 RWS Superdome seem to be my favorites, for the best balance of accuracy and power.

Dual caliber, nice to be able to switch between .177 and .22. Nice looking and finish.

Not sure if it's me, or the gun, but I'm only able to get groups of 2" at 30yds. I've tried Daisy max, JSB preditors, and Beeman silver ace pellets. Accuracy isn't too bad, but could be improved upon.

When switching between barrels, there is a large difference in sighting in the open sites or the scopes. Not that I didn't expect that, but it would be nice it was at least close

The dual caliber is great. The stock is real wood, and nice finish. Very accurate as long as you keep all the hardware tight.

Work at reducing recoil, seems a bit excess.

stock mounting screws on mine came loose often, put blue locktite and all is better now.

Accurate, 1" group at 20 yards and 660 fps with a 14.3 Crossman Premier in .22 Cal. Powerful enough to hunt with. Finish is pretty for a cheap rifle.

I would glue in the plastic fittings so that they can't be easily lost. I would ensure that the factory adjusted the plastic trigger better before shipping. I would reinforce the stock in the area around the two set screws which hold the action to the forestock.

This is an excellent price/performance package. As shipped from China there is a bit of tuning to do and you must be careful when doing that tuning.

I like the ss1000-h rifle for the way it handles on a bench rest I would reccmound this rifle to anybody who wants to shoot 177/22 .

The scope is hard to focus at 10 meters I think a laser sight would work better for 10 meter match play.

Very nice stock, .177 is accurate and hits hard with kodiaks, somewhat heavy but well balanced and handles very well, cocking effort is very reasonable for the power(ex. much harder to cock than my g1 extreme but a fair amount more power). You cannot go wrong with 2 calibers, others have complained about their barrels not fitting right, the one I received both are perfect.

Though the stock looks beautiful it is a little to delicate, mine got chipped with a light tap from my son not being carefull, .22 only shoots accurate with heavy kodiaks, and not enough power with the crow magnums to pierce 1in. plywood at 100 ft, they just bounce off where the kodiaks push most of the way through, and of course the usual: I want a metal trigger guard and trigger, I would pay a few extra dollars for that, wouldn't you?

Purchase a better scope it is accurate enough to justify spending 50 bucks on a decent one, use heavy pellets(I only used beemans, but the heavy kodiak was much better than the silver sting) I realize I complained about the plastic trigger, but don't forget this rifle is less expensive than a lot of rifles out there that have less features, the infamous MADE IN CHINA I am not happy about but this one is nice and well worth the money, Also like most others velocities are not as high as claimed,more like 875fps with.177 and 650fps with .22, but once you shoot it you will not really care it still has a lot of power. Bottom line: you cant go wrong with this rifle.
