Things I liked:

Awesome weapon! Granted, I dont hv the range as my 'real gun' Bros do, but I can knock down anything they do! Zero'd JSB Diablos (81 grain) at 50 yds within less than a Quarter coin, haven't tried any further yet, gonna do that today.

Things I would have changed:

The plastic charging port cover, it broke on the 2nd fill (the locking tab.)

What others should know:

Again, this is NOT a toy and you will do more than 'put an eye out' with it, more like half a skull, like the back half! This is a powerful rifle! A hand pump sucks, I've lost all those muscles decades ago. Get fit or get a tank.

    Things I liked:

    Well I waited for years and after looking up this gun online over and over again I finally bought one! The Bulldog has truly delivered up to the many comments and videos posted about it. Fires like a .38 yet feels like an air gun. Benjamin has made a must have for any type of gun enthusiast.

    Things I would have changed:

    Haven’t found anything yet! Gun and accessories live up to the hype. Finding all the crazy ammo and slug options for this .357 is fun in itself.

    What others should know:

    Can’t fire into wooden back drops anymore. This beast will rip though cinder blocks, so be careful!

    Things I liked:

    Ease of operation. Packs a wallop down range to the target. You can hear the power with every shot. Buying the kit was a great value. Everything I needed to start shooting on arrival

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    Great knock down power

    Things I liked:

    The thunk when It reaches the bullet trap. The size of the pellets and what I must call bullets. They do have a hefty feel in my hand, definitely give the impression they would go through both sides of a can. Although it looks somewhat different not many air rifles do 2 inch group at 50 yards out of the box. Admittedly a bull pup fan, I like the balance rather than the brick in the rear feel offhand some pups have. The Bulldog Kit, scope, accessories, and the rifle strike me as something I will enjoy for some time.

    Things I would have changed:

    The manual, maybe a few less languages and more information, like how does one figure out how to attach the front feet. I changed the air Input cover with something more substantial, a plastic cap, works well. Magazine takes awhile just to load 5 rounds, best to buy some for your pocket..

    What others should know:

    Although there are work arounds this is a air gobbling rifle. Five rounds then a trip to the compressor.

    Things I liked:

    Better than expected for sure. Came zeroed in and piled the pellets up in my target in the same place again and again, and it hits hard. Definitely suitable for big game with it's .357 big bore.

    Things I would have changed:

    The fact you can accidentally load a second round in the barrel n get it jammed trying to fire them out, it doesn't work.

    What others should know:

    The gun is a beast and the at first the odd look didn't stand out so much once I got it, it looks badass in person.

    Things I liked:

    Easy to swap to left hand. Out to 50 yards I can shoot several slugs and pellets with a sub 2 inch group. That cleans up alot of course if shooting whst it likes best. Has great power.

    Things I would have changed:

    Offer a upgraded scope and bipod option. Maybe a tin of JSB pellets.

    What others should know:

    Like most kits, scope works but most likely you'll want to upgrade it. I love it though and it is a great air rifle!

    Things I liked:

    If you want an economical way to get started with a "big bore" this is the way to go. Now, this is the smallest "big bore" but it packs a wallop. This is no back yard shooter.

    Things I would have changed:

    It is a bit on the heavy side, but well balanced. The cheap plastic fill cover should be upgraded or redesigned to work better. I've seen a lot of reports of them breaking, but if you're careful when removing and replacing it shouldn't be a problem.

    What others should know:

    The 81gr JSB Diablo pellets are the most accurate so far, and I mean accurate with consistent sub 1" groups at 50 yards. I've yet to shoot beyond that but I already expect it to be a 100 yard shooter, or more. I've used 79 and 125 gr Neilsen swaged hollowpoint slugs and while not as accurate as the JSBs they are not far behind and would make an excellent choice for game out to 50 (or even 100). I'm getting 10 full power shots with any of the projectiles mentioned. The CenterPoint scope that came with the "kit" is pretty good. While a red dot would be good for hunting, I recommend an optical scope to get the most out of this rifle.

    Things I liked:

    Gun is fairly compact. Has an impressive amount of power.

    Things I would have changed:

    Wish it came with a suppressor to make it backyard friendly.

    What others should know:

    Great gun

    Things I liked:

    For me it's a tack driver using the 81 grain JSB pellet, one hole 5 shot groups out to 50 yards. The scope that comes with it is just ehhh, okay. Definitely on the high side of a lower end optic but perfectly adequate for most of us nonetheless. This rifle is fun to shoot and I sent an entire tin of the JSB's downrange in a few hours time today. No hunting experience with it yet but I'm utterly confident that it's more than adequate for deer, hogs, coyotes. You'll see when yours shows up on your door step how much fun this rifle is.

    Things I would have changed:

    Pyramid should go ahead and offer a DonnyFL supressor kit.

    What others should know:

    Buy the DonnyFL Emperor suppressor. Totally worth the money for this Benjamin Bulldog as it drastically reduces the report. If you're going to get the suppressor don't bother sighting in until you have it mounted on the rifle as the poi will change once the suppressor is installed.

    Things I liked:

    Accuracy,Power, exercise using hi pressure pump..lost 5 pounds in three days...lol..a word about accuracy.. I sited in for two inch high at 50yards, and with a 145 gr Nosler that came with the package, I , one my first target shot, dropped a Prieare Dog, at 130 yards, with a chest shoulder shot.....this gun, modified, will do exactly what it was intended for..thank you PyramydAir and Crosman...

    Things I would have changed:

    would like to see blow back bolt and semi automatic..would be totally awesome

    What others should know:

    sometimes, a person might not cock bolt all the way back, and then you will end up with a no fire, then to remove mag, it will end up loading two leads..not to worry, the power of this gun, will push them right down range....air charging port cover, seems a bit cheap..Crosman Corp could certainly do better here..

    I've shot the noslers and the jsb and both are amazingly accurate. Great hunting gun. I am now selling all my black powder guns and going straight big bore air rifle

    Things I would have changed:

    Guns a little pricey.

    What others should know:

    Think about and research the young heng compressor. Fills my gun from 1000psi to 3000psi in less than a minute

    Things I liked:

    I live in the great long spaces of Wyoming. I took this package out into BFE, which is ALL of Wyoming for the most part LOL. After sighting in at a mere 25 yards; I was able to put rounds on target at 200 yards using the mil-dot scope. AMAZING set-up !! Buy it guys, it will NOT be a disappointment.

    Things I would have changed:

    The fill valve cover, mine broke after 5 uses. It's just a flimsy lock with too much pressure needed to open it.

    What others should know:

    The Nosler ballistic tips are CRAZY !! SO MUCH POWER !! but you can shoot any LEAD ammo of .38 CAL (.356-.358" Dia.)

    power,, real power i shoot at thick frying pans hanging in the small trees and heavy limed brush at all kinds of yardages out 60+ 40 50 35 all are there a bouts and i love to blow holes right threw em yard sales are my target hunting grounds for newer targets and when folks that dont shoot or are not familiar airguns see the swiss cheese holed frying pans they cant believe how powerful the modern airgun is

    Things I would have changed:

    nothing

    What others should know:

    very powerful and accurate,, must all-was be vigilant on the flight path of the pellets as they can go threw 3/4 inch plywood at 50 yards like it aint even there and go and do damage to others and property you would not expect it to do

    Things I liked:

    It did not leak air at all , received everything in good shape. The scope that comes with it is excellent. Zeroed it in with about 25 shots@ 25yd. 1inch groups and 50 yards about the same. It's about the same accuracy as my.25 marauder which is extremely accurate. It's quieter than I expected but definitely not for in town or close to neighbors. I didn't have time to try other distances but from the shooting I did it was so similar in accuracy to my two.25 cal. Airguns that I figure it will be very accurate to 70-75 yd.s which is the farthest I would shoot a critter with an air gun. I think it's a good value

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing, it's a excellent Airgun.

    What others should know:

    You need a backstop that is good enough for a firearm , this would destroy pellet traps in one shot.
