Hatsan Striker 1000X Vortex Gas Piston Air Rifle

amazing gun, and extremely powerful. worth the money

Everything!! This Rifle is Beautiful. I bought 2 in 22 Cal. Accuracy is Top Notch. I've heard people talk about the Trigger, but the Trigger is not bad at all. If you know how to shoot Breakbarrels than you will have no problem with Trigg. I'm definitely a HATSAN Fan for sure now. Rifle is Very Solid,well built. Highly Recommended.

Scope is the only bad. I put a BSA Sweet 17 on it and it does Great.

Shoots all pellets Great, but prefers the Beeman FTS Match 14.66 grain. I can put Pellets in same hole at 20yrds with those Pellets.
I bought THE Stoger ATAC 22 cal,and this Hatsan 22 Cal both Gas Rams. Love Both Rifles ATAC has more comfortable Stock,but Hatsan is a little more Powerful. ATAC is way more picky with Pellets by far!! Really can't say enough about this Hatsan they did excellent job! Highly Recommend this Hatsan Vortex 22 cal.

Everything except Scope. Scope says Made in China on the side. So far it's Accurate,Hits Hard, and Nice looking can't go wrong with this Air Rifle.

Scope.

I really like this Hatsan 22 Vortex.Everything is Very nice looking. Very solid, well built Rifle. I actually feel like getting another. This Rifle is 44 1/4 inches exactly. Not to long, not too short. I shoot back yard 99% of the time and it's still backyard friendly as far as sound is concerned. Crosman Premier Pointed are Excellent,and FTS Field Target 14.66 are Excellent also.Put Loctite on all screws.

Wood Stock is Sharp,Nice looking. Accuracy out of the box is really good. Hits Hard,gos thru 1/4 plyboard every time. The Trigger is Nice, im just going to leave it alone,but a Brass or Gold Trigger would look awesome on this Rifle.

Scope says made in China on the side. So im getting another.

Really impressed,I wish I would have bought 2, like it alot!! 22 Cal I think is the only way to go with this Rifle.I received this Rifle 12/30/2015. With new Air Rifles I always put 3 Drops of RWS Chamber oil in the Transfer Port, cause I know from the Manufacturer there's alot of Residue inside Piston Chamber. In my oppinion doing this helps clean up the inside and helps Piston Seal Seat better which in total helps with Compression. Put Loctite on all Screws as always. Rifle is Shorter than what I expected which is just fine,its perfect fit! Groupings were really good no complaints. Everything looks well made on this Rifle, very nice!I Highly recommend this Rifle.

Light weight, handsome wood stock, great accuracy, decent power (750fps in .22 with Crosman Premier 14.3gr domed pellets). This is a lot of air rifle for the money!

The trigger is pretty bad..long and heavy and just pretty bad.

I'll be getting a Welsh Willy aftermarket trigger to replace the stock trigger. Ive heard the WW trigger makes a great difference - hope so!

After a long absence I decided to purchase a pellet rifle and started w/ looking in big box stores for a rifle. I was not impressed w/ the products or the knowledge of the employees. I wanted a quality product but didn't want to spend a fortune.I also wanted a rifle that was relatively short and light for casual backyard plinking and target practice. In my research I ran across a YouTube video review of the Hatsan 95.I had not heard of this company but the young man in the video did an excellent job of describing the article's strengths and weakness. I was interested in the 95 but looking for something more carbine-like.I then found the Striker and decided to purchase. I really like the workmanship and quality of this rifle.Great value for the money.Quarter sized groups offhand at 10 yards w/ open sights out of box! I like this so much I going to get the new 95 Quiet Energy in.177 when available. Hatsan thank you.

Like many others I don't like the included scope and offering an upgrade at additional cost would be nice.I would also like a more detailed manual w a schematic drawing and parts list. The rifle would benefit from a better trigger such as the one on the 95.

I just started to explore th accuracy of this rifle with a good scope and a variety of pellets and so far my impression is that this rifle is capable of much greater accuracy than I can produce w/ my shooting skills.I am very satisfied w/ Pyramyd Air for the service, selection and the wealth of information available.The will be my go to guys for airgunning needs

Wood stock. Accuracy and a decent stock.

A slightly less bulky feeling stock.

I sighted this rifle at 25 yards and once I got the scope zeroed, I shot several ten shot groups. After the first group, I thought, "this has to be a fluke", but after shooting five more ten shot groups and tearing the bullseye out of the 10 yard airgun targets,(still at 25 yards), I could not have been happier with my purchase. I would highly recommend this airgun to my friends and family.
My rifle is in .22 as it was the only caliber I did not own. All my other airguns are pcp's and I wanted to try a gas piston rifle. I beleive I have a great rifle at a very affordable price.

Very good looking gun.

It is horribly inaccurate. At the same distance, I can get great groupings with my Beeman RS-2 .22. This gun is all over the place. High to the left, high to the left, to the left, high to the right, in the eventual "group" near center, repeat. Harder to cock than the RS-2, and harder to close when done. Where with the RS-2 I can bring the barrel up and then gently close it with one hand, this one requires near-slamming to close. The barrel could eventually develop a bend due to the force required to close it.

I have the .25 and use open sights. Like I said, it is a great-looking ammo-waster that will probably gather a lot of dust. I wish I had saved my $$$ and bought an equivalent Crossman or Benjamen product.

This rifle (mine is a .25 cal) has it all, gorgeous wood, dark rich finish on the metal, quiet, balance, and power! Accuracy is very good, and that is with the open sights that I can't quite get focused perfectly due to older eyes. Have only fired a 100 or so shots, and am currently mounting a scope on it, so I expect this gun to only get better! Beeman Kodiak and crow magnum pellets seem to do best in this gun, although I have tried JSB, Benjamin,Crosman and they do quite well also. weight is light enough to be comfortable carrying out all day in the woods.

This gun would be perfect with some sling swivel mounting points. Most break barrels have this issue, so maybe someone can figure this out.

The gun is a bit more firm in the cocking effort than other break barrels I have, one being a Benjamin NPS (The LE one). Only younger shooters would have any issues with it, or someone who has had some shoulder weakness. Give the barrel a good cleaning before shooting, as mine had a lot of oil in the barrel. Probably for shipping purposes. Nothing detracting though. For the money, I think this rifle in .25 is tops! This gun is quieter than my Marauder in .25 cal, so having this for larger pests within 50 yards is the ticket!

Solid construction . Once sighted in , iron sights are dead on .

Initial product had bad piston , and sights are plastic . New rifle great . And I would upgrade to metal sights

Return service speedy and easy to reach . I reccomend this company and this rifle. You won't be disappointed .
