Benjamin Summit NP2 Air Rifle

Very accurate, very stable to shoot, quietest to shoot of my 5 .22 cal air rifles. Weight is good, and stock fits me nicely. I replaced the trigger spring (which VOIDS warranty!!!) with the M-Carbo Benjamin Trail NP2 Pro Trigger Upgrade Kit, and polished a few surfaces while changing out spring. I replaced scope with Crosman Centerpoint Game Tag Scope 3-12 x 44, which has excellent elevation ladder for distance shooting. I have shot sparrows at 75 yards with this rifle. Currently I shoot JSB EXACT JUMBO DIABOLO 15.89 gr pellets. They seem to fit my needs for small game & pest control. I have had this Summit now for 4 years, shooting daily, and no complaints!

As with all Crosman/Benjamin products, trigger needs to be smoother! The 3 gunstock screws, 2 on each side front of stock, 1 back of trigger guard, come loose after shooting, causing shot's to drift! Good lock or star washers, or a self locking screw (screw with a nylon strip running down side of threads) or even mold locking nuts into stock would be helpful.

I shot this rifle for 4 months before I changed scope. Scope that came with Summit was decent, but not sufficient for long distance (75-100yds). The shrouded barrel baffle system really works! It is very quiet to shoot with the 15.89 pellets I shoot. It is not as sensitive to "hold" as are other rifles I own. It shoots well hand held, or from a rest.
YOU MUST CHECK ALL MOUNTING SCREWS EACH TIME YOU SHOOT!!! Or, like me, use blue Locktite on the 3 stock screws. The only time it drifted from zero was when a screw had come loose.

The size is very good. The weight is great.

The front sling swivel is too small. Needs to be wider. Will my fit a leather target sling.

None

Lite weight just can't get it to stay accurate

Screws won't stay tight

Overall not a bad gun for back yard plicking it likes crossman destroyer pellets

Weight, feel, power, accuracy cost. I do recommend this air rifle.

Not really sure. It targeted good with the CenterPoint 4X32 scope that came with it, which was clear. I did replace the scope with a CenterPoint 3-9X32, which is one of two extras that I have.

I did a 23 shot test using 12.65 grain H&N Sport/Excite Hollow Point over a chronograph. The average was 849 fps in 57 degree weather, today, 3/19/18. This rifle was shot at a 3 inch circle target, 80 foot distance. I hit that target repeatedly in the center leaving a quarter size hole on the 5/8 inch bullseye, which is no longer visible. I took a shot about every 3 minutes, taking my time. This is my second Summit .22 NP2.. the 1st one, which I bought from Pyramyd Air, was equally accurate as this second one. I monitored the 1st one with my chronograph for 11 months. After recording each shooting session, I noticed that the fps was less than 600 fps, with the RWS Hobby 11.90 and two other pellets that was no heavier than 14.3 grains. I talked to Pyramyd Air. The recommended I talk to Crosman, which I did. I sent the air rifle to Crosman. In 2 weeks they sent me a new one, no shipping charge. I monitor and document all my air rifles fps to detect any velocity losses. Woodys World.

This gun is very accurate and very easy to cock with plenty of power and a smooth shot cycle it's also pretty quiet for its power level another advantage is it's very quiet safety lever fairly lightweight and really nice in cold weather.

I swear that two different companies and designers built this gun from the grip forward this gun is excellent but the butt end of the stock is very flimsy and HollowI filled mine with silicone but now it's a little heavy on the butt end thus the four stars

You like I will want to do something about the butt end of this gun be careful removing the rubber but pad it has two posts 1 seems very flimsy when replacing the butt pad if the post breaks you will be super gluing it together other than this problem I like this gun the combination of quiet powerful and accurate is worth the investment.

Light and quiet. The stock is solid and fits me well. All around good gun. Initial sight in and shots fired have been in same spot as long as I do my part.

I wish the cheek rest was a tad higher. If Benjamin would start making the NP2 series with adjustable cheek rest, that would be great. I removed the butt plate and filled it with open cell foam pieces. That plastic echo when tapped bothers me. Just a personal thing.

Easy cocking effort. Quiet enough for backyard or in any enclosed area. The trigger is a tad stiff, I think with some lube and repetitive firing it will come into its own. All my other Benjis have and I like it. I picked mine up for just under $160. Combo of a Black Friday deal and using my points. Even with no discount I would have bought it and felt it was worth the money. As with all my guns, before the first shot is fired, I clean the barrel, lube the trigger assembly, and make sure all screws are tightened. Ive had 2 so far that the screws were just a tad loose.

first off the Weaver scope mounting rail was canted off to one side,,mounting a scope was a trial and error nightmare,,ended up with a red dot sight that would adjust to make up for the bad rail installation at the factory,,should have sent it back but once the box is trashed and living way out i the sticks it makes returns a all day fiasco,so I delt with it,, red dot with green too worked out pretty good,liked the green,, easy to see in daylight and kinda resembled a laser when i looked through it but scopes were not a option

better quality control at the factory,, pa should open product boxes like air guns,, and at least do a visual and operate the real hi ticket items at least once,, high dollar ,,pcps should be aired up to a shooting psi and leave it at a predetermined air pressure like1500 psi on all guns and check it again when some one buys it,,if its 1500psi just before shipment then it dont leak which some do ,, i got one,, marauder pistol ,, its leaked air from day one ,,so i air it up and shoot it down then re air ,, put it up with 2000 psi or some where close and in two or less days its empty probably 30 hours ,, i did not return it as i can use it on a as of today use basis and i have never returned any thing in my whole life ether I fixed it or sold it at a loss or just plain give it away and chalked it up as a do not remake this mistake

better quality air guns give you less grief and more smiles,, every cheap one has let me down for one reason or another and never lasted ,, maybe im to hard on them ,
