I compared this pellet rifle with a really nice $600 dollar .177 when we were close to the old car it would make a dent equil to the .177. BUT when we got back to 40 yards we could see a major difference. \The .25 would still put a large dent in the car fender whee the .177 was now just putting a small dent into the fender. This gun carries its energy well to 50 yards.

I would use a larger yet bore, say .35 altho the .25 works well.

Its the best deal out there, my opinion.

Rifle shoots straight on right out of the box using JSB Match Diabolo Exact King .25 Cal, 25.4 Grains, Domed, 350ct. only tried those pellets and its accurate as heck shot a tin can from 20 yds and its very devastating.Gun is really nice for the money.Though it might not be of good quality but after receiving mines today i was surprised at how good the quality was.Get one mines is a .25 cal and where else can you get a .25 for cheap?

include in the package what is promised to come with.Very dirty barrel.

Clean the barrel when you get it it comes really dirty.Also i didnt receive my free bipod thats supposed to come with it. Emailed Pyraymd hope to hear back from themIve read on the forum that the rifle spring comes un lubed from the factory so you might wanna lube it up.

I bought this in the 25 caliber, for my daughter "13 years old"... She can brake it down an load it herself..It is a little hard for her though... Lots of power "a good Squirrel gun"... Its a little on the heavy side also.. Bipods on a springer? This one is VERY pellet picky unlike all my other springers.. And its pretty "hold sensitive" as most springers are... And accuracy is not the best maybe I have not found its right pellet yet but I have tried about 7 different pellets so far... JSB's seam to be the best so far...

Ditch the useless bipod an add a sling.. Accuracy is not the best, it could be I have not founds its "love of pellets yet though"... The trigger on this gun sucks, it has a TON of creep, and its not even close to smooth of course it is not adjustable either.. A good polishing job should make it some what better...

Shoots hard in 25 caliber..Polish the trigger and start with JSB's first...

returned the gun to loud

noise and waight

gun is very noisy for what i was looking. and a little on the heavy side

Accurate with open sights. Good power. Quite impressed by the fact that I could purchase a .25 for $100. Actually a very smooth shooter.

The scope rings. They set too high in my opinion. No big deal-I'll just swap to lower rings.

Good power, one hell of a deal for what you pay for it. Where else can you get a .25 for this low a cost??? Am using the Skenco Ultrashock pellets. If you use these, go with open sights. The scope doesn't adjust enough to compensate for droppage with these pellets. Lower rings should solve that problem.

EXTREMELY ACCURATE AND VERY POWERFUL!

the gun is preaty heavy

scope is better than it looks. HAVE A GOOD BACKSTOP. THIS GUN WILL GO THROUGH 1 IN OF WOOD AND 1/2 IN OF METAL! YIKES!

the handle and forearm rubber grips helps allot with the stability with the gun. the scope is extremely nice with different zoom levels and wind age and elevation adjustments. an extremely accurate gun even without the scope. after cocking the gun the safe automatically switches on. THIS GUN IS ALSO A LARGE GAME GUN. I HAVE SHOT AND KILLED A POSSUM WITH IT.

NOTHING. ITS A GREAT QUALITY GUN!!!

in the pictures the bi-pod looks like it fits but it doesn't fit. it swivels around quite abit. when shooting have a good backstop. when using CROSS-MAN DESTROYER pellets they where going through 1 inch of wood and 1/2 an inch of aluminum. this is a very high powered rifle.

You can't beat this pellet rifle for the money. The quality of the finish and the fit were top notch.

The trigger blade is a bit narrow. If they could make the trigger blade slightly wider it would feel perfect.

You won't be disappointed by this rifle.

wanted to see what all the fuss is about the 25 cal.As for the gun it self I feel it is the best for the money in any caliber.I have had several hatsan rifles and this one is as good as any of them. This one has none of the fancey sas system ar quattro trigger but is by far the best value hatsan has to offer

I would let hatsan keep the included bi-pod for a better included scope.

If you are just a little intreiged by the 25 cal and are not wanting to invest much to compare with 22 caliber this is the rifle to have. For my experiance I would buy one of every riflen that hatsn makes,and you can never go wrong with the folks at pyramyd

has a nice weight to it. yes the stock is plastic but feels good. shot about 50 rounds through it before even mounting the scope. after mounting the scope took about 25 shots to get it zero'd in. scope seems to be good quality for price paid for the gun. about 400 rounds later and the scope has not moved. quality

nothing

researched many other brand rifles in this price category and found most made in China. This one is made in Turkey, that was one of my deciding factors toward purchase.

I love the look and feel of this gun also it's very accurate and sighting in the scope was nice and easy

the only thing I would change is the bipod is extremely cheap it says it's a 20 dollar value but if I was buying 1I wouldn't spend 10 dollars in the bipod

I would definitely recommend this rifle it's 1 of the best values you can get and if you're in the 100 dollar price range I would go with this rifle

Great rifle. Death on target

Nothing

Buy a good scope and you will shoot great groups . Hold the gun artillery style

EVERYTHING

NOTHING

BEST DEAL OUT THERE. NO AIR RIFLE ON THE MARKET CAN MATCH ITS ACCURACEY,POWER AND PRICE PERIOD!!DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON OTHER OVER PRICED AIR RIFLES. I OWN ALL THREE CAL .177 .22 .25 $300.00 WHAT A DEAL!!!!!!!

accruate, easy to reload, all out favorite gun just got it yesterday and i already dropped a chipmink and a sparrow great gun

nothing at all

Buy this gun its awesome

Accurate.

Stock and trigger.

I have shot about 2500 rounds through this rifle and I can tell this rifle is very accurate. I can make less then 1" groups 25 yards away in standing position with open sights. Artillery hold is best for this rifle, but I wouldn't say that it is too hold sensitive. Tried several pellets and I think crosman prem hp are very good. Think that domed pellets would be also good (maybe best). It is not too heavy and not too long. Feels very good. Things I would change are trigger and stock. Trigger is not bad when adjusted, but still heavy to pull, but I do not have problems with it. I would change it for better accuracy. Stock looks very nice but made of plastic, but it feels much better because it has rubber pads on the sides for the left and right hands. First couple hundred rounds it was a little louder then I expected, but sounds ok now. When I took it apart everything inside was dry. Had to "oil" it. Nevertheless I think it is very good rifle.

it is a great rifle for the price.it is very accurate.it is built well.i didnt expect it to be as well as it was.it is a very sharp looking rifle.i like the saftey feature on it. the scope is better then i thought would come with it.the only thing i did not like was the bipod with it.one of the reason i bought the rifle was cause of that would be the only thing i would change is to send it with a better bipod.but all in all the rifle itself is beautiful and very powerful good for target shooting.good for the occasional vermin problem.

This is my first break barrel and so far I like it. Seems easy to cock and once sighted at 15yds was grouping within 2" with 54yo eyes on open sights.

Have the scope mounted and dialed in at factory/PA. The scope was hard to mount and I have yet to get it sighted. I was trying at 20 yds and could not get a decent set.

Might be heavy for younger users. The grip is good and the weight makes control better for me.
