Hatsan AirMax Reviews

Not even can fill the gun

Everything

Yes pure waist of money

For a first time pcp rifle owner it was kind of frustrating to set up. The air probe did not have a air vent drilled out, which confused me until I drilled one in. I used a hand pump and it took over 45 minutes to fill it. The wood has a dull finish, but once oiled it looks beautiful. I have shot 35 round in it so far and the groupings are around a .50 cent size and it is not broken in yet.

Properly finish the air probe, and use resin on the wood stock.

This lady is heavy, not from the stock, the components are built like a tank. Stock weighs around 1.5lbs. Place 2 drops of air gun oil in the air fill hole before even filling it to lubricate the inside. Clean out the barrel before using it, there was a little rust in my bore hole. I filled my rifle and let it sit for 23 hours before I fired it to watch for leaks. Place o rings on the probe and coat with silicone gel to ensure a stable connection. Make sure that there is a vent hole on the air probe.

Very high shot count. Pretty accurate out of the box. Great for target shooting with enough power to pest/hunt. Not as picky with pellets as some of my other rifles.

I had a problem with one of the two magazines not cycling. Pyramyd Air was supposed to send a replacement, but I never received it. Hatsan USA did send a replacement magazine along with the anti hammer bounce mechanism that broke around 200 shots in. I knew the gun didn't come with a regulator either, so I bought a Huma regulator to get my shots tighter and power more consistent.

Hatsan USA has been excellent on their support. I received my replacement parts within about a week of contacting them.

No es pesado, es comodo

Nada

Lo compre en calibre 25 pero el cargador solo cargaba un diavolo y no cargaba el segundo, asi que lo tuve que cambiar

Rifle is very easy to cock and install the magazines. I have gotten more than 120 shots on one full. Velocity is dropping after 100 shots but still fun to shoot.

The cocking lever screw backs out about every 50 shots. I have not been able to secure it yet. It would be nice to have long hex wrenches to adjust the trigger without removing the stock.

This rifle is accurate with specific pellets. I have not found the best yet but have several that are very acceptable. Very powerful and shoots 1050+ fps on a chronograph.

good shooting gun like the weight

trigger pull is long and a bit hard should be tuned at factory has a goofy ping

take the stock off there is only two screws to adjust the trigger-watch the sheer mine likes to shoot 15.89 round nose pellets

Really nothing

Trigger weight, action feels rough

This gun was stupid heavy, not accurate with several different pellets. The trigger and action were gritty. I returned it and upgraded to an FX and am very happy with it. The FX was $600 more, but the Hatsan was so inaccurate it was useless to me.

I like everything about this gun,guess you can say I am an hatsan fan boy,this gun I very accurate,I mean, it's easy to get nickel size groups at 50 yards,and the power is great,just now having an issue with an air leak,and I have had this gun for a couple years now,still shoot nickel at 50 years with the leak,still getting great shot count with the leak,the 25 cal is very powerful

Nothing much to change about this rifle,maybe except the weight and sounds it's very loud,would love to see hatsan do this one in a synthetic stock,with some upgrades,I would buy it immediately.......

Gun is heavy,but you get use to the weight,I am truly a fan of hatsan guns,my flash is great also,this air gun will be great in any airgunner collection,or hunting case....

I really love this gun it shoots a lot harder than the typical break barrel and is 10x more accurate. For a first PCP airgun this is great because it has tones of shots per fill so you don't have to waste all your fun filling your gun up with air. It is definitely a bang for your buck

The only thing that could be changed on it would find a way to make the gun a little bit lighter but with you being able to put a sling on it that helps a lot

If you are filling it up with a hand pump it takes about 45 minutes to an hour to fill it from empty but that because you have to let the pump cool done so I would suggest not letting it get below that 100-150 bar range

Very accurate. Side lever action is smooth and reliable. Magazines index nicely and are easy to refill. Adjustable cheek piece is very nice. Pressure gauge is NOT on the business end of the rifle like many others. The included strap makes carrying it around much easier.

I love the wooden stock but it adds quite a bit of weight to the rifle making heavy and not easy to go hunting with. A lighter synthetic stock would make this rifle amazing. It's the only thing keeping it from getting 5 stars.

A great, accurate, quiet rifle but wow it is a chunk to carry around. Despite that, it's an excellent gun and I'm happy to have it in my collection!

Nothing at this point.

Hold Hatsan to a standard equal to what you are paying for. You are paying a premier price for a woodgrain stock. Mine arrived with a clear crack all the way through the buttstock. Re-glued by some employee at the factory smearing glue into the woograin. When finished both the crack and the smears of woodglue are clearly seen. The allen srewdriver was loose in the box and it proceeded to scratch the finish off the end of the barrel. Who packs a loose metal wrench to flop around in the box on its way to you? I love paying 600 bucks and getting a crap gun. These airgun re-seelers just box it up and send it out to you without a thought..

Don't buy a woodgrain stock gun from Hatsan. They have no quality control and will pass on poor workmanship to you. Like seeing a crack in your expensive woodgrain stock and smears of glue that could not be stained ...go for it!

Almost everything but it is a heavy gun.

The picatinny rail on the underside of the forestock is mounted with screws that are too short. The rail broke off after one use. The screws had almost no purchase. I replaced them with 5/8" #8 machine screws. They should do better, if not I will put in some #8 bolts with nylon locking nuts. Hatsan would do better to either use much longer screws and alter the placement of them to align with the solid parts of the forestock or use bolts, nuts and a fender washer in the hollow sections.

It would probably help to dismount a bipod before storing to keep any unnecessary torque from applied to the rail mount.

Excellent value. Mine is .25. Great power and very very accurate for long distances (100 mts or more) using H&N slugs.

I had to add an scope riser in order to fix the aiming but that's it... easy to fix.

Valve,power,high shot count, quiet

Little heavy, and stronger front picatinny rail

This is a great gun for the value. Have both the ,22 and the .25. .22 may be one of my most accurate and consistent guns. And yes I own a wild cat also. Shoots both Jsbs and H&N pellets well. .22 is Huma regulated and get about 100 shots at 900 fps with 2 fps standard deviation. Great 32 fpe gun. 25 cal shoots Kings at 880. For 85 shots.

This is an extremely well made air gun! The fit and finish is nothing short of amazing. The .25 caliber that I bought is hard hitting and the air goes on forever. Most of the airguns I buy have composite stocks but now and then I see something I like that has a wood stock and this gun probably has the most beautiful gun stock of anything I own. This thing is built like a tank and is very robust. Ergonomics are second to none, just a very comfortable rifle to hold. I couldn't be happier with it!

This gun like every other Hatsan air rifle I own is very heavy..at least for the ladies. If I could change anything about it I would maybe make it a bit lighter. This is probably of no real consequence to the men so other than this I actually think it is great as it is..I will just have to deal with it :-) This is a great rifle!

I usually buy all of my air rifles and related stuff from Pyramyd Air as their customer service is phenomenal (my girl Rhonda rocks!) This is the first time I have done an actual product review but I have bought a number of guns from them and have never had a problem. Delivery is fast, they are very helpful on the phone and I really can't say enough good things about my experiences with Pyramyd. In terms of the gun I bought, it is perfect..you will not be disappointed in it!

Love the power....

Nothing

Everything

The fit and finish on the rifle I received was excellent. At 10 meters it is very accurate. Magazine is easy to load and load into the rifle. So far it likes several different pellet types from round nose to ballistic tips.

I can't think of anything I would change

First off this rifle is heavy when you add a scope and bipod it is pushing 12 pounds. This isn't a problem but is something you need to be aware of.
Second when loading the magazine with ballistic tip pellets you should lay the magazine on a flat surface so the points do not go past the front of the magazine.
I think this is a great rifle for not a lot of money

Its a beautiful looking gun. Love the dark wood!

The first .22 Hatsan Airmax I received got less than 30 good shots on a 200 bar fill. After 30 steadily decreasing (in velocity) shots, the airgun was down to 120 bar, and it required 180 pumps (with my Hill pump), to get it back up to 200 bar. My .22 Hatsan Bullboss does much better than this (it gets 30 consistent shots, pressure goes down to130 bar and it only requires 80 pumps to get it back up to 200 bar). I am not sure why the huge tank on the Airmax doesnt fill to 250 bar like the Hatsan Nova, then maybe it would get the 95 shots that are advertised. I returned the first gun, received a second gun a week or so later and it would not fill at all. As I pumped air into it, I could hear air rushing out of it. It had a valve that was not seated properly. PA offered to send me a third Airmax but I said no thanks, I was tired of this gun failing me.

I was really looking forward to a bullpup that could give me 95 consistent shots but it just didnt happen with this gun. I tried with two different Airmax guns and it just didnt work out. I was extremely disappointed with this gun. PA did give me all my money back...for the gun, the scope, the case, the scope ring, etc, etc, so that was good. PA is a great company and all of my other Hatsan pcp air rifles are great, but this one was not good at all...at least to me.

The overall gun is nice well balanced, Shoots accurately

I have a couple of things I would deferentially change the scope rail need to be 20MOA from the start. most scopes do not have the elevation to zero at close range. Need a empty mag indicator. the shot count is stretched a bit on the advertisement 95? no more like 60
