Benjamin Trail NP2 Reviews

Very lightweight and easy to cock; shoots very well with a variety of different pellets; very accurate right from the start with the scope it came with;easily takes out varmits from my yard protecting my dog

possibly include a sling; make it with open sights as well

very accurate and hard hitting; short break in period; accurate; lightweight; worth the price

It claims to shoot at 1100 fps but on my Croney it never shoots over 800 fps no matter how light of a pellet I use in it. I knew it wasn't hitting targets as hard as my Marauder pistol so I went out and brought a croney to test the fps.

Give it the correct fps like 700 to 800 fps.

That I don't want it and wish I could return it or exchange it but I brought it back in August and it is still in the box.

Much more accurate than the stoeger suppressor. Very nice feel and very quiet right out of the box. Stock does have sharp edges. Camo stock is awesome. I'm impressed. Sighted in less than 20 sshots . I should have purchased this instead of the x20s stoeger. Just a better rifle.

Stock has sharp edges

For my needs ,I don't think I will need another gun, it's ultra quiet powerful, and is an impressive Pellet rifle. I purchased the stoeger because of the price and now it's for sale!

first thing is overall feel of the gun and how quiet it is.

the scope (even though the scope seems to be pretty decent, its just not to my liking). Metal barrel shroud. Instructions could be bigger( the letters).

my first 22 cal and gas piston, i bought this in the premium bundle. Overall the the feel of the gun is very very comfortable and easy to cock. I like the safety and it location. The trigger to me is firm and smooth (factory setting on this is just fine for now). I tried shooting this at 100 feet out of the box went back to thirty feet for pellet testing and break in, the accuracy at 30 feet is right about 1/2 in or tighter. The gun is extremely quiet. Great rifle for the price. If you looking for a great gun give this one a shot if you dont like send it back.

I purchased this gun for my adult son. He likes the overall feel and the camo appearance .

He's still getting used to it and making adjustments but really enjoys shooting it.So far it's been awesome; no complaints.

Excellent value for the price.

I like the feel of the gun, the camouflage and the weight.

The stock is very weak and started to rub on the barrel close to the breach and started causing it to pull to the left. The speed of the gun should be a better correlation to actual usable pellets if it's called a hunting rifle you need to be able to use hunting pellets and understand speed in regards to power. The machining on the guide pins was very rough and you can even feel it as you charge the nitro piston this has to calls premature wear

It's a good Little Rifle if everything was as it was stated if the stock was good and the machine work was good I wouldn't have a problem keeping it but I'm going to send this one back!

The weight, very light. Comfortable. The trigger. Def like the trigger compared to most of my guns in that price range. Great power, easy cocking. Nice and quiet, def a backyard shooter and neighbor friendly

Plastic piece on shroud. And maybe just a little denser stock.

Great gun for overall cost, great hunting rifle. Good trigger. Normally I don't buy crosman products after I've purchased one of the biggest pieces of garbage from them (pistol) but I heard this was built in my home state of New York at the crosman facility. That was the turning point for me. The gun is great for the price range. The synthetic stock isn't as nice as my stoeger (must use a different type of plastic) but overall this is the type of gun you can just toss in the back of the car and not worry.

I really like the over design of this gun. The stock looks really nice and the gun feels good in your hands. I also love how quiet it is the sound of your pellet hitting the target is louder then the shot. I've equipped mine with a 4-16x40 AO MD IR scope and a benjamin sling. Overall this is the best break barrel ive ever owned shoots extremely accurately out to 65-70 yards.

The trigger while a improvement over the original NP could still use a little work. I plan on swapping it out for a aftermarket trigger in the near future but its totally usable. I would also like to see this gun bundled with a better scope or simply sold without a scope for a cheaper cost.

This is a awesome break barrel I have had no problems with mine it shot great right out of the box. I found that the best pellets for this gun are the H&H Field Target Trophies 14.66 grain and the JSB Diabolo Exact Jumbo Express 14.35 grain. I average 830+ fps with both and 22+ FPE.

Rifle shoots great no complants at all, have shot about 18 squacks so far. Great service from Pyramydair as always. they werent kidding about the trigger its a pleasure to shoot, a lot better than my Gamo 177cal.

not a thing

Been shooting premier crosman 22 cal. hollow points, at 25 yards shoots 3/4 inch avg. 5 shot group. shoots clear through squacks rib cage and shoulders. Very pleased, shoots better than I thought it would.

Awesome rifle for the price.... Sighted this in no time flat... quite and fast knocked the squirrel right off the tree..

nothing i would change yet...

The break barrel was easy to manipulate. The trigger was smooth, but could be lighter. This might just need time to break in. I put about 50 rounds down range.

I would like a better scope option or an option to not have the bundled scope that would cost less. Then I could buy a different scope. I would like to have a lighter trigger. I wish the front stock was a bit wider and less tapered/angled.

I usually don't like to post reviews, but in case it warranted a quick write up.. I waited 4 months to get my NP2. I'm glad I did not cancel my order. I found that you need a very firm hold on the stock pushing the rifle into your shoulder to get good accuracy.

The looks of this gun, very manly, felt very solid in your hands, was the best looking rifle I owned,the camo was solid looking and was pretty much flawless, I like the fact that you could attach a sling if wanted, I'd also have to say once again I love dealing with pyramyd air, they are the best, I like their 30 day $$ back garentee I did take full advantage of it before I gave up on this rifle,

I know we all have heard the phrase a diamond in the rough, well for me & I stress for me, the rifle was a rough in a diamond, I had some issues my major one was the accuracy, jus when I thought I'd have this gun figured out I wound have a couple flyers while trying to shoot groups, the speed of this rifle was no where near the advertised FPS, I also had problems with the shroud come loose on occasions, I jus wish this rifle would have preformed as well as it looked!

This rifle has had some mixed reviews, I think that if its something that your interested in then you should give this rifle a chance, I jus wasn't happy with the proformance, I did try another scope, I put a 4x16x40 center point on it & that did not help, I own a few other rifles & pistols so I do have some experience, I will also put this out there, when I returned this rifle I did get the syn-rod & it is like nothing that I have ever owned it is awesome, once again thanks Pyramyd Air!!!

This gun is quiet and is easier to cock than my other np guns

Maybe make the trigger a little lighter

So I waited 6 months to get this gun! While waiting I read all the horrible reviews out about the black and wood stock and was freaking out! I have only had the gun 2 days but have ran about 300 shots thru it and it is awesome! I bought a nice scope for it so never took the one it came with out of the box! So after 100 shots I was shooting about 1" groupings at 30 yards! Now you can't beat that anywhere for a gun under $250! I am amazed by the accuracy of this gun! I have the Gamo silent cat and never thought I would own a more accurate gun than that one, I do now! Now this thing may break tomorrow but as of now it is the best air rifle I have ever owned! It's not to heavy and feels great in your hand! LOVE LOVE LOVE the trigger, it is awesome as well! Will update post if something goes wrong but as of now I would by this gun over and over again!!

The knockdown power of this gun is crazy! Shoots way harder than my Gamo! Only thing I think is not accurately mentioned about this gun is the cocking pounds! It's really not a big deal but I think my Gamo silent cat cocks easier than this gun so the 10% less pounds is not right in my opinion! But overall doesn't change my opinion about the gun because it's not hard to cock!!
