I purchased the 25 cal. Tube version. I'm very happy with the power. Out of the box, it's launching a 26gr pellets well over 1000fps. It's noticeably lighter and better balanced, front to back than other guns, with less power.

The cocking handle seams a little week. I have not had any problem with mine so far, but I'm very jental with it. The sound it makes when shooting, is a mechanical ping. Not a satisfying pop, I get from my other pcp's. I would like to have it in 30cal.

Nice gun for the price. I would buy it again.

This is my 2nd (actually 3rd, as the first one went back for an exchange) Zelos. I love the accuracy and noise level of this gun. Have run both a Sumo and a Ronin on it. Not quite whisper quiet, but close. Good shot count, good power. I sold my other Zelos to help finance a Karma EQ. Other than having more power and adjustments, that gun was a letdown from this one. Not near as smooth...more of a "brute force" gun than anything else. Sold the Karma and got anothet Zelos.

I don't know that I would change a thing. Mine is a .25. Love it.

My first Zelos was more pellet picky than the subsequent ones. This one likes FX atomics and JSBs in 25.39gr.

Regulator set at 2200 psi, 25 shots with 25.39 JTS and 25.39 JSB monster Hades at 875fps, 43ft lbs, and gives me 5/8 groups at 50yards, for 30 ft lbs remaining energy.. way more shots with 21.14 Baracuda Match and regulator at 2000psi. Nice shot cycle. Operation of the cocking lever is smooth and light. Trigger is good. Could be better. Can be adjusted to pretty good. Solid build. External regulator adjustable. Threaded 1/2 UNF. I use a Tanto and it is stupid quiet. No muzzle noise. Without the Tanto its loud enough to be annoying. Two mags included and they are good. Nothing flimsy or floppy on this gun. No fill probe required. Dual gauges.

I would be nitpicking.... I don't know, two stage trigger, or shoot slugs better whatever that entails..... Asking a bit much i think for the price I think....

I paid $500 for mine elsewhere. Sorry PA. Couldn't pass it up At full retail it's still a 4 to 4.5 star gun. You'll see guys on the web taking this thing to 50ftlbs. Mine isn't happy there. I havent been able to shoot slugs accurately yet. So far I'm staying under 45ftlbs. Last thing, be warned, messing with the hammer spring tension is not covered in the manual. I believe that's because it's touchy, counterintuitive, and yielded little gain.... if any. Of course clean it upon receipt, then every 500 shots, (mine gets crazy when its too dirty) and follow all directions.

Hey Roger, Not at all! Solid gun, have had it for over a year, and it is still shooting strong! I use it about every day, not a leak at all.

Robert Nov 13, 2025

For $10 I had the leak check, along with other checks, done by Pyramyd. The Zelos arrived no problems at all. Awesome rifle.

Roger Nov 02, 2025

I bought two Umarex Gauntlet 2's, and they leaked--back-to-back--out of the box. Judging from other customer reviews and on-line comments, this appeared to be characteristic of the Gauntlets. Before I consider a purchase, anyone experience this with the Zelos?

This gun has never failed me. It is pretty easy to top off with a hand pump. Pretty comfortable to shoot. Great long range air gun (100 yds) It is very smooth and accurate. It has never jammed.

The magazine well is not designed well, if one is leaning against the gun, and try to cock the gun, the magazine moves, and you need to re-align it to cock the handle forward. I have had a problem with the charging handle a few times, but it is not an issue, I found out that it was the magazine problem that I just mentioned. The trigger has a lot of creep, I'll have to figure out how to do that.

High scope ring mounts are a must. The accessory rail is poorly designed, it should have an extension acting as a barrel band. If you add a hand grip the air tube will start to spin, messing things up. I believe that Umarex will no longer sell models that have an adjustable hammer spring in the stock. If y'all are on the fence about this gun, get it. Make the decision, mash the buy button, and get ready for a blast of bliss.

The gun is extremely accurate. It is set at 2400 psi from the factory on the regulator and shoots 18+ grain diabolo pellets extremely well at high speeds. Well made gun that shoots two magazines for me before refill. I like the higher than advertised pressure

It arrived without any magazines in the new box which is supposed to contain two with it. I have requested them from Pyramid but have had no response so far so shot with the extra one I bought from them. Pyramid has been very slow to respond. The gun barrel needed internal cleaning which I did and the absence of the magazines puts a hole in the German efficiency legend but once I put a tko moderator and a scope on it, got the extra mag I paid for it shoots well. A mixed bag because they did not include the required magazines in the new, arrived in good shape box.

Once you finally get the complete kit the gun shoots extremely well.

Blame it on China, they made the gun... I still love it though!
