Very quiet flat shooting accurate rifle also very backyard friendly for getting rid of house sparrows. Neighbors don't even know I'm shooting it. No problem getting head shots at 25 to 30 yards on house sparrows, lots of feathers flotting in the air, hits hard. And the 3 by 9 by 50 Hawks scope works perfectly with it.

Nothing.

If you're looking for a PCP rifle this is a very good choice.

This is a very accurate shooting rifle and quite, really good for back yard shooting. I've shot springer and decided to try a PCP for getting rid of nasty house sparrows, the springer works but to much noise. With the hawk 50 mm mil dot scope 25 to 35 yard shots are dead on and it hits hard with 10.65 N-H pellet, lots of feathers flotting in the air after a hit. And the neighborhood cat's they love them.

Wish the refilling options came at a cheaper cost but that's owning a PCP lucky for me as a old scuba diver I still have my 2 tanks that il use for refills, think of getting a hand pump?

For the price this seems to be a very nice rifle for the money after looking at a lot of other rifles at much higher prices.

No recoil, flat shooting, hole into hole at 25 yards. Very nice shooting gun, getting rid of a lot of nasty house sparrows dead on and devastating at 35 yards with my 177. Always shot springer and they shoot good but my daina 350 magnum can be hard to control sometimes. I'm looking at another PCP someday in 22 or 25 call they nice.

Wish they didn't run out of air so soon, wonder if will ever see a 100 shot per resavaior gun.

I like the QE I shoot it at night & it don't bother any of my neighborhood friends I live in a very small country town & their is a lot of critters out at night & this rifle has a ton of power to take care of them. I have the .25 cal & I use PBA ammunition gold raptor pellets @ close range their deadly hitting at over 1050fps wow I love the repeated mag.

This is one heavy beast with a scope & bipod so it's not a light rifle!

Get a 4500psi hand pump or carbon tank? You'll have fun filling this bad boy up!

I just absolutely love this rifle! After moving into our first home we found out it was infested with large raccoons that were destroying our property and rendering our pool a health hazard. (Where we live raccoons carry a parasite that is highly dangerous!) After having a hard time getting my springer to shoot straight I finally realize our vermin problem was not going away, So while not being able to master the artillery hold right away I decided to enter the world of PCPs. After about a half dozen rounds I had the scope zeroed in and that very night I took down a 35 lb raccoon with great precision. I'm using .25 cal H&N Barracuda Hunter Extreme with excellent results. The accuracy and ease of use is just spectacular and I really like the feel of the rifle. The included scope works just fine.

I would like a quick release on the fill nozzle instead of the 1/8" thread. Also it would be nice if it could accept the .25 cal Predator Polymag as it doesn't seem to really fit in magazine that well

It was a choice between this or the Benjamin Marauder and I feel confident I made the right choice.

Flat shooting. Quiet. Groups well on paper, when I do my part.

Wish that it cost less, but I found it to be good value for the money.

If you're looking for a PCP repeating rifle, this is a great one to put on your short list.

I am very VERY happy with this new toy of mine. I have yet to break it in and find the best and affordable pellets for it; so far, I am loving the groups I get with some medium to heavy weight pellets. Bipod rails and weaver/11 mm mounts are awesome. The sound it produces so low I can shoot in the basement and my wife don't hear a thing while she's upstairs.

When I opened the box, I noticed the color of the stock was a bit faded, like if it was dusty or something on only part of it. I tried to wipe it off and noticed that it was the guns color and finish. I've gotten used to it but it did bother me at first. Other than this extremely vague complaint, I love this thing.

Light pellets do not agree with this gun. Perhaps it produces so much force that the pellets tend to wobble a lot or maybe the pellets I tried were nice and heavy but these gave me dime size groups at 20 yards. The pellets I tried were 8.5 grains to about 9 grains in weight.

This a very accurate and powerful airgun. I got the 20 for $20 service and the scope bundle package. I expected to tweak the scope a little when I got it. That was not necessary. It was right on. I bought this air rifle to primarily take out pests in my backyard without disturbing the neighbors. It is great for that. Just a dull "ping" and the problem is solved. I have woods about 25 yards from my back door and squirrels constantly clobber the bird feeders and get on my back porch. This is just the ticket for the big old fox squirrels and occasional red squirrel that won't be shooed away. Head shots at 30 yards and under (about as far as I can get a clear shot) are a piece of cake. They don't go anywhere but down after the hit.

Not a lot. The lever that cocks the gun and advances the rotary magazine is a little stiff, and the gun is a little heavy.

This is my first PCP airgun. I don't know why I didn't get one years ago. I have been worried that I would need to buy expensive tanks to fill it but have had no trouble keeping it topped off with the Hill pump I got for it. I'm 69 years old and not in great shape. If I can do it most people should be able to.

I have the .22 version. It is very quiet compared to my .177 Hatsan 125 nitro piston. It took only 10 shots to sight in with a UTG 4 - 16 x 40 scope. Now I get 5 shot groups at 20 yds that are totally covered with a dime using 18.13 gr domed JSB Diabolo Exact pellets. I am dropping sparrows at 40 - 45 yds.

I had a little trouble getting the UTG weaver scope rings to hold tight on the rail.

fair cost into the world of PCP fun! the bundle was an easy way to shop. poof!! money gone, rifle shipped. the seller is amazing!! super fast, super communiction. even finding a pump was easy. they do all the thinking for you. so far, with the bundle pellets, my rifle is super accurate. especially in the hands of my sniper buddy. wow!! the pressure gauge is funny. staring down the barrel..and if you need reading glasses, you are staring down the barrel really close.

i want to write GREAT instructions for this rifle. hate the gauge location. with the rifle you get parts. a fair number of parts. super cool, except you dont know where the parts go. there is a threaded plug and tiny black o-ring i still havent figured out. i thought the o-ring went on the hose of the pump..between the hose and probe.but no..i bet i tore it trying. DUH!! good instructions would have helped. the rifle sling is a toy. very toy-like. like a sling for a toy gun. honestly, i works. the huge logo is off putting, but funny. i'll keep calling PyramydAir with question..again, they are fantastic. i paid the $20 for 20. felt okay. BUT my scope was not plumbed. you stare into it and the cross-hairs were not plumbed to the rifle. i had to fix it myself. (i'm anal, but it was way off). i found all but two of the allens very loose. not even hand tight. i lightly cinched them down. no harm - no foul. rifle was still "on paper" at 30 yards, so i consider it ok.

two words: Slippery Slope.

This gun is(unbelievably)more quiet and more accurate than the Benji marauder. The bolt action is not as nice as the Benji nor is the magazine. It does however have dual rails for 11 mm or Picatinny scope mounts.

I am not a synthetic stock guy at all. Offer it in wood and they couldn't keep up with the orders. Biggest negative is that the magazine will just keep on turning when empty (the Benji magazine tells you when you are out) and you waste shots until you figure it out.

Tap one of the magazine holes with a 1/4-28 tap and insert a 1/4 inch long set screw flattened on one side to keep the o-ring in the groove and you have the same setup as the Benji. Mark an opposing flat with paint to show you at a glance when you are out.

very quiet, accurate, handles well.

you really do have to point it at your head to read the pressure gauge.

I bought this for quiet short range pest control, and it works very well. However, for the money I spent to get this and a pump, I could have bought a very nice traditional .22 rifle and a suppressor... but I would have had to wait years to get the tax stamp approved.

Amazing gun, very well built and very accurate. easy to shoot, easy to load and the power is there! This is my first pcp and very happy about it, should have gone this way a long time ago. Pyramyd Air helped all the way,with everything you will need to get started. It's great to do business with this company! Their shipping is also the best! This gun is easy to fill, easy to load and easy to shoot. With their bundle,you can't go wrong! The price is well worth it, great deals.

Nothing

If your thinking about pcp guns, this is the one to get, not real heavy to carry while hunting, easy to load, and will hit what you aim at! You can't go wrong. Also the price can't be beat! This gun is also easy to fill using a hand pump. And with Pyramyd Air bundles, you get everything you will need at a great price and will be shipped to your door in no time at all.

Accurate, wicked powerful and very well built. It is not pellet fussy and it was sighted in in only six shots. I got the .25 cal and am so pleased with it. Actually, I love it! Right out of the box, at 150 bar, I get 786 FPS with 31.02 grain baracudas. That equals 42.5 FPE. This thing is a monster. I can only imagine what the long rifle version can do. I love how you can swap out the air tanks,and do it quickly. I like the fill probe, It is so easy to refill with my hill pump. The magazines are great too and not a lot of money either. The blueing is excellent on gun. It has a nice trigger, It is very predictable and crisp and can be tuned pretty well. I still need to spend a little more time with it, since I only got the gun 3 days ago. I also like how my gun came charged, which means that it was filled at the factory, and had held its charge ever since; even during shipping half way around the world!

Put regular sling swivel studs on it at the factory. I don't like the ones that it comes with. That's the only thing.

I can only speak for the .25 cal because that is the one I have, but if you are new to pcp air gunning and are torn between getting this or getting the Benjamin Marauder, go with the AT44!! I bought a .22 synrod three months ago and I am very disappointed with it. I tuned it very well and it still has accuracy issues, and it is so pellet fussy. Not the AT44! I've shot three different types of pellets with it and they all group so well, that It's hard to tell which pellet is more accurate. In my opinion, the synrod fells like a toy and the AT44 fells like a machine. It is built so much better than the Benjamin, and I can say that the Crossman / Benjamin company has gone down hill since the late 80's. If you aren't sure between buying the AT44 or the Marauder, take it from someone who is extremely fussy about accuracy,(myself) and get this gun. If you are concerned about weight like I was, this gun is not much heavier than the Benjamin, but that little extra weight is sooo worth it!

This is the second in the AT 44 10 QE line I have gotten. The first was the QE Long 25 caliber and this is the regular QE in 22 caliber. The new gun was no different in function than the other. It came charged showing the cylinder held air and the trigger was set close enough to shoot out of the box. It is lighter than the long version and has very good balance and shoulders well. Quiet and accurate with the correct pellets it will work good as a plinker but this to me is a hunting gun. When shot the only thing you hear is the hammer strike then the pellet at the target. Even quieter than the QE Long version which is saying something.

I would like to see a wooden stock offered and for these to be lightened a bit. Maybe an adjustable comb could be added but not a necessity. Hatsan also needs to go to a standard size sling mount to fit aftermarket strap style slings.

These guns are extremely accurate right out of the box after a good cleaning if you chose the right pellets. I see people complain about accuracy then read they are trying to shoot lighter pellets, don't. These guns are tested using lead pellets for speed and a 2-3 grain difference in weight means an accurate gun or one that throws flyers constantly. The .22 caliber is a tack driver using the JSB 18.1 gr Diabolo pellets while it threw the 14.4 and the 15.89 pellets everywhere. Remember it is about accuracy not speed and too much speed when using pellets kills accuracy. Let the gun do what it was designed to do by feeding it the right ammo.

Very powerful and accurate straight out if the box. Using beeman crow magnum pellets now in 25 cal this gun destroys on contact small game doesbt stand a chance very positive it will devistate large game as well

Dont like looking at tge front end of barrel to see how much air is in the gun.

Quiet poweeful and lethal

Overall it is a quiet rifle, It does have good power""" I found the trigger likable as is and needed no adjustments... overall weight was not bad, magazines were easy to load and seated good in the rifle. The scope was adequate and easy to mount, good out to 40-50 yards. Overall good value for the money, PA made this purchase a very good deal!

Manometer needs to be moved to the underside of the rifle stock, it's a little eerie putting your face in front of the barrel...! Side lever could be smoother" (it will get smoother in time I'm sure!)for now side lever is a little crunchy...

Well I tried it as is out the box; I couldn't tame the beast! Seems like my unit had valve issues that kept this rifle from grouping well and holding zero! Sometimes the pellets were over powered and others were under powered- Now this is a slight phenomenon" but enough to throw your zero off and the pellet off as it tracks down range! Example- Zeroing @ 20yds & shooting 10 shot groups, shots 1 thru 10, 1st 5 look good, next five move high right or left with 1 or 2 shots dropping 1/4 inch below the bulls-eye! Shots 11 thru 20 some fly high left or right with 3 out the group landing below a 1 inch bulls-eye, 21-30 ok group but three or more shots way out the group, shots 31-40 poor accuracy with at least 4 flying a inch away from bulls-eye! Proper fill is 200 bar(top of Green)shoot till needle hits the yellow, that's 40 shots. I used JSB 10.3gr pellets, anything less weight 8-9gr were to light and cracked when shot. At high pressure the baffle system was quieter than the end of 40 shots

The rifle looks great. It was in perfect condition as received. The rifle is well made;the quality of the parts are immediately noticeable. As soon as I mounted the Hawke scope and took a few shots, I knew it was a winner. The rifle is very accurate and consistent. And, I was amazed at the very low noise level. Hatsan has a sure winner with its QE series.

The sling is nothing to write home about.

Accurate out to 50 yrds or better. Good trigger and overall well built. Hatsan does not exaggerate on FPS. Mine shoots over 1100 FPS with 7.0 gr pellets in .177.

The gun is heavy, but that's to be expected for a rifle over 45' long. As others have said the sling is too short. Would be nice to get more shots per fill.

Put a better scope on it and shoot one hole groupings out to 50 yrds if you are capable, because the gun is. Shoot a 10+ gr pellet in a .177 if you want it quiet. Lighter pellets break the sound barrier. Get some additional magazines and another air cylinder.

Fills easily with hand pump, very back yard friendly, the adjustable stock is nice for different types of shooting. It shoots well with just about any decent pellet.

Move the fill gauge or make it easier to read.

This gun is already shooting hot, glad I didn't get the long version. I only go to 170 bar to slow it down some.
