Page 3 of 10 - Hatsan Bullboss Reviews

Its my first pcp air rifle, And its a great buy.

No.

N/A

Just about everything, I get the best groups when Im at 160 to 140 bar 1/2 to 3/4 at 40 yards JSB and H&N shot the best for me JSB are around 1$ more but they cycle though so much better I would recommend them. all weigh 26gr and up shot around the same.

There is a long Plastic Guide for the cocking arm flexes when you cock the gun would be much better if it were metal (like on the Gladius).

Get a regulator will have much more fun shooting and will still kill all critters up to raccoon. With out the 1 in 6 wild shot when jacked up to 200 bar

Accurate, robust, bullpup configuration, adjustable trigger. Holds zero in temperature swings. Easy to tune. Will give you an honest 900+FPS with Barracuda Hunter pellets in .25 caliber with 2 turns from max hammer adjustment. I do like the look of the gun a lot and with a DFL Ronin LCD on the end which clipped like crazy till I drilled it out looks like a Howitzer and pretty freaking cool. It will turn heads when pulled out of the bag I promise.

Regulator from the factory should have been installed before bringing to market. Gun has been gifted to my son who regulated it and I replaced this .25 with the Avenger this is factory regulated. The Bullboss is said to get 30 Optimum shots...I never got more than 18 rounds out before the air needed replaced. Make this gun quieter and more efficient on air consumption. Avenger has the same size air cylinder and gets double the shots or better from what I have seen in videos. I am no fan of the safety and really wish it did not have it where it is in front of the trigger. Yes it does become second mature but I never ever use a guns safety. If the mag is left in the gun with last round spent then the gun can not fire so safety switch is pointless to me and I really hate auto safeties.

If you want a regulated gun...this aint that. If you want light weight...it aint that either. It is reliable, accurate and without a compressor you will be able to cancel your gym membership Using a hand pump because it is an air hog. If using a fill tank get a big one for any extended time at the range. It also helps to tether your fill bottle to the gun when shooting long distance to help with the massive drops in air pressure from the onboard air cylinder which I think should have been bigger. Get extra outings for the valve on the business end of the guns air cylinder. They are tiny and when the gun sounds like a cannon it needs replaced. Easy to fix. Great cold weather gun and will hold air forever.

Most inaccurate air rifle Ive ever bought. Ive purchase a regulator to see if that helps.

I wish I could change the fact that I purchased this.

Stay away.

Everything about the gun itself. It fits me well, the trigger is awesome once I got it adjusted, it has surprising power, even at 90 yards..... I've been slobbering over this gun for two years, and although I wish I could have afforded the Gladius, the Bullboss is not bad. I have shot the Baracuda Green out of this, but they tend to jam the magazine if you're not careful. Baracuda Hunter Extreme work well, but only out to 50 yards. After that they lose stability. Gonna try some slugs and different pellet weights soon.

The FILL PROBE!!!!! Why on God's green earth did Hatsan use a SLIDING probe system, rather than a quick connect or threaded system??!!

You will HAVE to buy different O-rings for the fill probe. I tried gun oil, Vaseline, mineral oil, grease, gear lube, and anything else I had on hand that might seal them up enough to reach 200 BAR. NOTHING WORKS! I don't know why, but Hatsan dropped the ball on this one item. McMaster-Carr carries the ones you need. #009, .070. Get the oil resistant ones. $9.95 for 25 of them.

I have the .25 cal. It's very accurate out to 40 yards ( I only have a 40 yard range). I fill it to about 180 bar and shoot 2 magazines 18 shots to about 150 bar. I am able to keep 3/4 inch groups getting 840 fps. Very happy with it and continuously working with the air charge to see if it gets better.

Make it so it doesn't move in the forearm of the stock to keep it more stable

Well worth the money keep the trigger links clean and lubed for smoother trigger pull.

The power and accuracy out the box.

Would like it to be lighter, but I knew it was on the heavy side before I bought it.

After 100 bar your shots pull to the right, it likes a full tank. At least my does. But over all the Bullboss it a beast and accurate out to 50yards easy, I have not tested at 100yards but sure it will be good.

Powerful and accurate

I would have paid a little more for a regulated air cylinder... Actually I'd still pay Pyramid to install a regulator on a cylinder if they perform that service. Things I would change... I would ask Pyramid techs to slow down when performing the $20 service, scope was mounted and zero'd but the picatinny rail was loose on arrival. I believe for the $20 bucks they're supposed to go over your rifle a little better. Lastly the cocking action is a little chunky/clunky, I've heard it smooths out over time but mine hasn't done that quite yet.

I'm getting a bit older and I haven't shot anything regularly for about 15 years. I bought this and I've had trouble putting it down. I've shot 300 25 cal pellets in a bit over a week. Again I'm an old shooter and I'm shooting great groups with it so you younger folks should be able to produce excellent groups. I'm sighted in at 20 and shoot regularly out to 40 yards with no problem. Amazingly I can hit 1.5" targets at 40 yards over and over and over with this rifle.

It is a great gun for the money! It shoots many different pellets well! It is very accurate out to 75 yards. I have shot groups the size of a dime at 50 yard! Love the trigger! It is backyard friendly! I have the 25 cal and it will put the squirrel's on the run!

It is heavy!

Great gun for those that can't spend hundreds of dollars to hunt or just have fun shooting targets.

This is my second PCP rifle, first one being the Benjamin Marauder .22 cal. Looks and feel of the Bullboss are great. Love the side chocking action and the syn stock seems to be very solid. .25 cal is very hard hitting. Using JSB 15.89 gr and in a 20 string shot count getting an avg. of 788 fps out of the box. Tweaking the trigger helped the grouping 2" @60 yds is the best with average of 3". Have Huma regulator on order hoping to improve that, if I'm not being too picky... Fun gun like shooting it!

More metal parts..

My Marauder is a 10 yr old tact driver with walnut stock. As mentioned this is only my 2nd rifle and maybe it's the norm but was surprised to see all the plastic parts that were used in this gun. Mounts that the scope rail are mounted to, trigger pieces, chocking mechanism has more than half it's parts plastic. Fact being I don't feel the plastic parts effect the function of the rifle negatively now, but have "maybe ungrounded" concerns about long term wear issues.
