Air Venturi Avenger Reviews

I love the precision accuracy of the .25 caliber shooting fx .34 grain pellets

The gun is fine the way it is for the price point. Would like to see a better shot count . But that issue is solved now they have avenger x out now.

Looks cheap but if ur wanting accuracy you can not go wrong with this gun

I just love it. The most enjoyment I have had in shooting and the gun is very accurate. At 50 yards with Diablo heavy pellets I can keep in a 1 inch. Group all day long

You just can not go wrong with this gun

Very accurate, low cost, very adjustable, great trigger, ect.,etc.

I cannot think of a thing.

This is my second Avenger. The first one was my favorite air rifle out of the 5-6 others that I have. I made the mistake of having it in a soft case lying on the back seat of my truck and forgetting it for a couple of months last winter. Unfortunately it got various items placed upon it and when I finally got it out it had lost its air. It would no longer hold air. Hopefully I can get it fixed but in the meantime I have a new one to take its place.

Way more gun than you would expect for the money. Charged it up, slapped a scope on it I took off my Stormrider, took one magazine to get it zeroed. Shooting five shots in a half inch bullseye at fift yards straight out of the box with Crosman Premier Roundnose. No louder than my Stormrider. The side lever is so much nicer than a standard bolt action. I shot three magazines my first go, barely moved the pressure gauge. I don't have a chrono, but each shot was dead on in elevation, proving that pressure and velocity were consistent. I got the synthetic stock version for money reasons, but I'm quite pleased with it so far. The gun feels heavy when you pick it up but it balances well in a shooting position. I can't wait to get to spend some time with it to fine tune it and do some hundred yard shots.

Nothing.

Came double boxed in a very secure formed box. Also got it in two days. Way to go Pyramyd Air!!!

mounted on a tactical stock with barrel stiffening donuts makes this rascal SUPER accurate. the weak part of this dude is the hammer spring adjustment setup. mine keeps backing out after 30 to 40 rds. i've got 4000 rds thru mine and only changed one o-ring! keep the pellet probe o-rings oiled.

Almost everything. The power, the shot count,(43) with the pro tune! The value for price is another huge plus. And accuracy? Just wow! Took me 3 of my first magazine to punch bulls eyes at 30 yards. Loving this .25 caliber beast. The trash pandas and armadillos don't stand a chance now.

I really don't have any dislikes. If I was gonna pic nits, it might be the hollow stock, but, to me it feels great and shoulders perfectly. A friend with one told me he put a shop towel inside his stock, and it made the hollow sound go away! I did the same. And it works perfectly.

If you don't already have an electric compressor, BUY ONE! Even a cheapie, even with an excellent hand pump, this ain't a 3622. It hold a little more air, and if your old like.me, you will give yourself a heart attack before you fill it up.

Great price, completely tunable, lots of upgrades available, great entry level gun and beyond

The plastic stock is a big problem that I will discuss more below. This is available in a wood stock version for about $70 more and it is worth going with that gun. If you just shoot from a bench and don't mind zeroing your scope each time you shoot the plastic stock is okay. But if you hunt and bump the gun and use bipods go with the wood stock - it is worth it.

When you install bipods on the front picatinny you run the risk of moving your point of impact left or right...sometimes by several inches. This was very frustrating since we use this gun for hunting rabbits. I ended up shaving the forearm piece to completely float the air tank (which is connected to the barrel shroud by a band). I also disconnected the front picatinny rail that links the bipods to the barrel band. By doing this I isolated the bipods and the forearm piece from the barrel shroud. I could now deploy my bipods and fold them up; I could bump the bipods and it would not affect or torque the barrel shroud. By doing all this I pretty much eliminated the left and right point of impact shift I was seeing each new shooting day. I then purchased the wood stock and just installed that. I have not shot the gun yet, but it is much more solid and I believe this is the way to go with the Avenger. Buy the wood stock version and you will have an incredible gun.

Everything

Weight accuracy versatile.

? Nothing.

This is my first air powered gun. It fits my budget, easy to carry, it is accurate! I ordered the.25 cal. with a scope. There's a man here in East Texas taking ferral pigs with the same gun. 100 pounds and under at 50yds. This gun is fun to shoot!

What's not to like? This is a very good rifle. Not just an air rifle. Right out of the box it's great. I own two now. i've had differant brands that I've given away. This one is a winner. For unwanted bears, coyotes, ground squarrels, name it. One .25 cal pellet and they're gone.

nothing

holds air for more than a year maybe forever.

Great rifle with impressive performance, lightweight and adjustable.

Nothing so far

FPS is excellent for its price range.

Its great

Amazing rifle!

None

This is a great rifle for modifications, very tunable, with great accuracy.

The feeling wen you shoot the target that makes you say that this 25 cal is quite a lot of fun

Larger air cilender

Great job

Bought a break barrel crosman before this... not comparable at all, this will comfortably make a dime size groups at 50yrs, the crosman was 5in at 25yrds at best, and this was only $100 more (excluding the pump). Side lever is smooth and satisfying to use, trigger is crisp and very adjustable. Feels very well made, would've preferred a metal bipod mount, but the polymer one works well enough. Highly recommend to anyone looking for accuracy.

A metal bipod mount and 20rd mags would be nice, but neither are a practical issue.

Hard to see how one could get better value for the money, I love mine and shoot it daily, still working strong after the first 1000 rnds.

I bought a refurbished .25, I cannot get over the build quality and the accuracy. Great entry level rifle for PCP, highly recommended.

Pyramydair, you have a customer for life!
I ordered a refurbished one, and you sent me the first quality. Thank you for being an honest and ethical company; I appreciate it very much.

This thing has tight groups! 1-1.5 in at 50yds, counting flyers! Even shoots well when I put in lead free pellets, not riding high at all. For the price I couldn't be happier, can't wait to take this hunting. Picatinny rail is great. Not gunna complain about the guns light weight, I don't wanna get tired lugging it around.

Nothing, couldn't ask for better with the price tag.

What a steal! Got this refurbished, so a good bit cheaper than new; everything looks great, I would buy refurb from here again next chance I get for my next pcp.

I bought this Avenger .22 a week ago and its pretty good (save for one bad exception). Running at 1800 psi with 1.5 to 2.00 HS using FX 15.89 domed pellets. I easily managed 3/4" to 1" groups at 25 yards using my $25.00 Pinty Green/Red dot sight. I added a 3D printed second barrel from Ebay. Bought the $500 Air Venturi compressor which makes filling a snap. IMO, the Avenger really does not make much noise and decided against needing to buy a DonnyFl Tanto and adapter. Besides, the Tanto would have made the rifle really looooong ..

The gun is a bit long and heavy for my slim frame. My my biggest beef is that I suffer (among others) from the dreaded "regulator creep". I can set the regulator at 1800 psi and a few hours later it creeps up to 2200+. Sure, you can dry fire it a few times to bring it back to down for a bit but as soon as you stop shooting, back up it goes. Yes, even when indoor and outdoor temps are the same. This is BAD news when your hunting having to make noisy dry fires and also when your running out the back door (gun loaded and ready to go) ready to shoot something.This sucks. TAlso, the Avenger magazines are just fair. I tried the Crossman ICON magazines, they are far superior. to the Avenger ones in every respect.

I paid for the 10 for 10 test and 24 hour leak test.So far out of the box it does not leak. Am buying a Diana StormRider to see how that goes and obviously NOT adding a regulator! Maybe I'll use the StormRider for hunting (2 lbs lighter and 2" shorter) and the Avenger for target/tuna can shooting.

Light weight, very accurate, mine likes JSB MKll's 33.9 gn, the Magazines work great, I also bought the 13 rd extra capacity mags, they work great, very nice side lever action, trigger is adjustable but it was perfect out of the box, easy to set the regulator and to get to the Air bleed screw, Fosters fitting for air fill, Picatinny and Dove tail rails on top, Picatinny rail for bipod, sling holes, easy to read gauges for both high side and low side pressures, it a great gun for a cheap price, I bought a Refurb, it was missing the Baffle, I made one on the 3D printer, got it from thingyverse.com

I'm going to Bottle this beast, 500cc carbon fiber bottle.... should give it a couple hundred shots at 4500psi

the Air Venturi 13rd magazines fit, just watch your ring height, I use mediums and it squeeks in, it has a 6k burst disk, it's got a bark to it, but not real bad, lots of Moderator Baffles on the web to 3D print, the one I found works good, just need to modify the hole for .25 cal to 8mm, I imported it from Thingyverse to my downloads then to tinkercad and modified the hole to 8mm, note in slicer flip 180 Muzzle end down, no support..... ;)
