Page 2 - Plano Vertical Rifle Case - Reviews

Fits my rifle & scope well.

None

Great case for the money.

Protects better than soft cases. This case "floats" the gun in a secure environment. Nothing can hit my barrel or scope.

The area under the carry handle dips down to provide a space for the carry handle to fold down. This coincides with the tallest point of my CP 4-16x56mm scope with AO sidewheel. I had to trim the foam in order to lower and otherwise reposition the gun (Gamo Whisper Fusion Mach1), to fit in the case.

Despite the original lack of clearance mentioned above, I was able to place foam cutouts below the gun to hold as many as 4 pellet tins on the floor of the case. I really like this case, but it takes some adjusting if you really do have a large scope that requires such a case.

The idea of a vertical case for a rifle.

A cheaply made case The padding or lack of is a joke. I bought it for a scoped rifle but lid hit scope and couldn't close it.

I have had good luck on other items purchased from pyramid so I'll keep using them.

It keeps you rifle up right. It hold your rifle securely with the velcro straps. Has room for storing your ammo and clips and accessories under the rifle. Very easy to carry.

Like to see a foam lined bottom

You can keep your pellets, tools and most of your shooting needs all in one case would highly recommend this case

The case is very sturdy and exactly what I needed.

Nothing.

This is a case that carries a very expensive and accurate rifle. You must take good care of it.

By the way: I did not get a warren-tee card with the rifle to remit. I guess that Air Arms will keep track of my purchases and guarantees.

Your air rifle sits in an upright position. Fit, finish, and function are excellent for the price.

Seems to be well built.

make it a little slimmer.

great case would buy another if I needed one.

Everything fits just right

None

No

Highly recommended as being an "Excellent Bang for the Buck" which offers good basic protection under normal, careful handling conditions.

Does not impress me as being "Heavy Duty" Rugged - would have preferred a heavier gauged material as well as additional foam insert in lid above the scope area.

I have two of these cases and they are perfect for my rifles. I modified the butt stock foam to allow me to store two magazines for the mrod and I still have room to also store my sort bipod.

Nothing

I had to modify the fore stock foam to allow for the 50mm objective and 1" rings but there are instructions included to explain how so it wasn't any big deal just wanted to share.

I purchased one of these rifle cases to handle my Marlin 336w 30-30 with a scope. The gun fit perfect. The overall build of the case is good. The protection offered the gun is excellent. The gun does not move at all once fitted into the foam forms and strapped down. I liked this case so much, I bought another one for my 8mm Mauser.

I do not see anything that needs changing.

Cheap

Make the area where the rifle scope would be located a bit higher. Competitive scopes are much higher than hunting scopes. The case indicates it will accept a Plano 3500 inside the case, under the rifle. It is marked so, but the case will go in the case along with the rifle.

Now a good value at all.

Very secure case.

I wish the hinge was on the other side.

This is the best case I have. The gun is much better protected than in any of the flat cases I have used.

Holds gun in upright position. Fits all of my benji airguns with scopes.

Nothing

Good case, I have two.

When I purchased my Hatsan 125 Vortex I decided to include the 20/$20 to site in the scope. The case is very sturdy and well built. The case itself (minus the form inserts) should last a long time.

I would change the form inserts that seem to be losing their form after a few uses. Also the velcro on the butt end is way too short while the piece on the barrel end is way too long. In light of the more than adequate interior spaceI would also include a foam insert or two for ammo or accessory storage.

I haven't compared other cases for scoped rifles in this category but the price point on this case seems right. Because of the overall exterior and build quality the above observations can be easily fixed by the owner. Overall I'm pleased with this purchase and may purchase an additional one for my Gamo Whiper Pro.

Finally a case that will cradle your gun like the eggs box that cradles eggs. Excellent method to keep a gun from banging against the inside of the case and rubbing against the foam of the case during movements.

The foam in the fore-end needs to be stiffer so that the gun doesn't bang against the side of the case. There needs to be a stiff foam between the trigger and foam in fore-end to provide more support so that the gun doesn't bang against the side of the case.

I inserted foam between the gun's trigger and foam in fore-end to provide more support so that the gun doesn't bang against the side of the case.

The longest [and tallest] rifle I own is a Hatsan 125 - to which I have added a "dropper-rail," and a Leapers 4-16x50mm AO scope. This rifle fit perfectly in this rifle case. The quality of this rifle case is typical of the quality that Plano produces [tackle boxes and such] and I'm delighted with this purchase.

Not a thing. I did make a change which was just minor [See Below]

There are two blocks of foam inside the case. One is at the rear of the rifle and one is by the for-end of the rifle. I did remove the small piece that protrudes at the bottome of these blocks; which lowered this Hatsan 125 [w/50mm scope], allowing the lid to close perfectly. I'm gonna buy another one, now that I've seen how it fits my rifles.
Thanks for selling these cases PA. You're still my "GoTo" place for everything 'airgun' and will continue to be so.

Fitment was great; held the gun upright with supports for front and rear. Locking is good and solid. Case material is good and when closed the case is feels rugged and secure.

Different gun supports in the case. Internal compartments for some equipment, i.e. pellet carrying, patches and quick cleaning equipment. More room on the top li for a high mounted scope.

Well made, rugged with plenty of room inside for single gun low scope mount.
if you plan on a high mounted scope, like a 50mm, you should try the fit before buying.

Sturdy plastic was much heavier than I had pictured in my mind. Installation of included foam and tie-down straps are simple. Fits my Hatsan Dominator 200S air rifle with Leapers 4-12 scope with no problem.

Longer Velcro strap for the rear tie-down would be nice, especially for the raised cheek riser. An integral, interior storage compartment on the bottom of the box for ammo and a bipod.

I have to remove the bipod in order for the gun to fit.

Very good protection; holds your rifles secure; can keep your rifle upright so it does not lay over on the scope to knock out of sight; allows the use of a dessicant cannister to keep moisture from gun.

Maybe make this case 1" deeper for rifles that use high rise mounts to fit.

If you want a great upright hard case that allows your rifles not to have to rest on a sighted scope this case is everything you need. I will say that I wished PLano had made it about 1" deeper to allow for rifles that use high mounts and drooper mounts to have clearance. To combat that however is to trim the waffer foam the butt of the gun and forearm sit on.
