The new Seneca Recluse II is a powered up version of the classic .357 big bore PCP air rifle. Boasting up to 220 FPE of muzzle energy, which is a massive increase over the original version that produced just 145 FPE (with 67 grain round ball ammo). This power upgrade comes as a result of internal modifications to the rifle, so the classic looks remain unchanged from the original. 

What is different from the original aside from the power upgrade is the longer cocking bolt handle. This new cocking bolt is easier to install than the original, and because it's longer, makes it much easier to get a hold of when cocking the rifle. Like the original, you still have the option of a high and low power setting when pulling the bolt back. Stop after the first click for low power, or continue to pull back to the second click for full power. It's as easy as that!

Don't forget about the fantastic versatility of the Recluse II. This rifle is capable of slinging the 375 grain Seneca Air Bolts at speeds over 500 FPS, producing energies up to 210 foot pounds! With that much power on tap, there's little out there that you can't hunt with the Recluse II. Grab yours and hit the woods today!

Things I liked:

Beautiful Gun, great traditional look and feel.

Things I would have changed:

Mine doesn't hold air. Shipped from factory without any testing. I took it to a dive shop to get initial pressure so valves and o-rings would seat. Still loses air from the muzzle / breach. When disconnected from the air connection, it also loses air. If I were selling these, I would not just recommend the service and sighting, I would do it as a matter of service. I received mine and would not hold air. 3 weeks for me to return and replace. If it were my company, I would require testing and sighting before shipping. Money saved when you consider employee time solving issues. Send out a tested and sighted gun and reduce the wasted employee time for solving problems. A little extra care would save a lot of money in customer service. AND I would be a happier and possibly return customer, not so sure now.

What others should know:

Expect issues with the gun, may need to return for service. Pay the extra money for testing and sighting (just to save aggravation and to be sure valves etc. are seated) Can't rate it because I can't shoot it.

Things I liked:

I really liked the power that it has. I have the 357/9mm. I like the number of shots I get. . . I like the ability to cast bullets for it. I like the double air chamber for more shots. Since I have not had this gun very long, I cannot be objective on longevity and other things that may or may not happen as I use the gun more. I gave it a 4 overall for the following reasons. 1. Trigger pull. 2. Loading. 3. Cocking scratchiness. It is not a smooth pull. But in time, it probably will smooth out. 4. Accuracy (so far). This accuracy could be the result of such a hard trigger pull. Eventhough it has about a 1.5 inch CTC at 40 yards, I think with time and a trigger fix to lower the poundage, the accuracy should improve. I also have not tried a number of different pellets in the gun. Thus, I may not have the Golden Pellet that shoots cloverleafs yet.

Things I would have changed:

1. Change the way it cocks. . .It is scratchy? when you pull back the lever, making it hard to stop in low power. 2. Definitely change the trigger mechanism. . .it has a VERY VERY hard pull. 3. Somehow add a sling mechanism. . . My Recluse is HEAVY.. .I do not see how folks say it is a light gun. I also have the double chamber 500cc. 4. Change the way you load it. You have to push the ammo forward and up into the chamber. Your fingers cannot push it forward enough, I use another pellet to push. 5. No way to lubricate the O-ring under the sliding silver cover. You can lubricate the O-ring on the back half of the loading chamber, but the ring on the front is unreachable. You could play the game of tilting the gun and dropping chamber oil in hopes of lubricating the ring. 6. The rear sight could be moved forward, just enough to where you can get a Scope mounted.

What others should know:

1. Make sure you have HIGH scope rings, or your rear sight will be in such a way that you cannot mount your scope. You can move your scope back a ways to solve this problem, but. . . it shouldn't be a problem in the first place. 2. Accuracy is fairly nice. . .I am getting about 1.5 inch groups at 40 yards using Diabolo 81 grain pellets. But I believe that they group could be smaller if the trigger was something like 2 to 3 pounds. 3. The gun is heavy, and that helps out with the Trigger Pull being so heavy. The gun is heavy enough to help compensate for movement when pulling such a heavy trigger. 4. There really isn't much power difference between low and high power. maybe 50fps? Yet on high power you are burning up more air. To me it isn't worth it. I shoot low power. 5. I have casted 85 grain and 105 grain 356 bullets for the gun. both work well. 6. It will blow through a 2x4 with 81 grain pellets. Don't under estimate the power of this gun. 7. I would purchase it again
