Hi just.neil. I've tried using the quote button but it doesn't work for me for some reason. LoL. Anyway, you may have already thought of these things but I thought I'd offer some ideas that may fix the problem with your Benjamin Trail NP. - Crossman puts pretty cheap scope mount rings on...

I have the Benjamin Trail NP XL 1100. It came with a terrible trigger. After a trigger job to shorten and lighten the pull, about 200 rounds with 13 different types of pellet to find the right one, and now mine is a straight shooter. Maybe I just got lucky and got a good one - other than the...

I know how you feel EssexAirHunt. I recently took a very large squirrel with what I thought was a very well placed headshot. The kill was not instant and required a follow-up headshot after he had fallen from the tree and crawled about 30 feet. It really had an affect on me. You did the best...

Hi Tim. What rifle are you using? A nice PCP rifle will outshoot most other rifles. I can only shoot to 30 yards in my backyard and I'm shooting dime sized 3-5 shot groups with my Benjamin Trail NP XL 1100. Even with the best pellets for my rifle, I'll get at least 1 or 2 flyers with a 10...

From my experience, I have found that a heavier pellet will better withstand wind deviation resulting in better groups. As far as breaking the sound barrier - I used to own a Ruger Air Magnum .177 rated at 1400 fps and when I shot it, it was just as loud as my Ruger 10/22 rimfire rifle. It was...

I agree, Kim. Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. If a shooter is practicing bad techniques over and over again then they are going to consistently get poor results. Many things can affect accuracy: - Quality of the rifle/pistol. - Pellet being used. Even while...

Very nice production! Pretty darn good for just playing around.

Hi all. I'm Greg and I live on the eastern shore of Virginia. I'm 45 and a retired Navy Chief, thus my user name RetiredChief. I grew up shooting and hunting with air guns and fire arms. A had a Sheridan Blue Streak chambered in .20 for many years but I am by no means an airgun expert. I...

Rocky, I'm using Crossman Premier Hollow Points (14.3gr). I've tried a bunch of different stuff and I get pretty good groups with those. So, I imagine I'm getting the same FPE that you mentioned above. I grew up hunting squirrels and rabbits with air guns. I used to have an old Sheridan...

I'm in VA and though I appreciate the invite, it's a pretty long drive to TX. I do remember commenting to myself how heavy the squirrel was when I picked it up. I don't know about calcium but I definitely think he was using steroids. LoL. It was definitely one of the biggest one's I've...

Thanks for the replies guys. Rocky, my rifle is a nitro piston (version 1. The older one). I'll do some testing to check my POI but considering that I hit that squirrel right where I wanted to I don't think the tests are going to tell me much. Still worth a try. I've been wanting a...

Hi all. New guy checking in and I have a question. Hopefully, you can share your experience with me. I have a Benjamin Trail XL 1100. It's rated for 950 fps with a standard lead .22, 14.3gr pellet. My rifle is a couple of years old and I probably have only about 200 rounds through it. I...
