Which .25, Kratos or AV Venturi?

Jump to latest Follow Reply
I shoot two guns from that Kral family...the Puncher Breaker and the Knight. Both are very comfortable shooting lefty. I have always shot right handed actions...but cannot shoot a dedicated right handed stock.

The bottle is NOT removable while it is pressurised. The Knight is shooting about 120 shots from a 250 bar fill. From 200 bar, arou d 3000psi, I get 55-60 shots.

For my personal use, I much prefer the wood stock to the feel of synthetic. The Beni-Kral have adjustable cheek rests for customer fit to your scope. Yes. That makes a huge difference.

The AV has more adjustments available if tinkering and never being satisfied is your thing. Some guys want all the knobs and switches, I dont need em.

To be fair, I have never held or shot the AV gun.

I’ve got two, a .177 and a .25 Avenger on backorder. I have or have had all of the high end euro guns. I just want a couple of inexpensive loaner guns that are reasonably accurate my buddies can shoot.

I’ve had Marauders in all calibers and generations. Great guns. For me, the jury is still out on the new generations of Crosman guns. The “furniture” of the guns to me isn’t a deal breaker and I’m sure the bottle can be unscrewed. Not sure why you’d want to. 


my suggestion? If in the budget, order the Kratos if readily available and keep the Avenger on BO just in case the Kratos gives you buyers remorse.

I would buy the Kral from Crosman with its 5 Year warranty. It's a no brainer even anyone with a LOW IQ can figure it out. (well maybe not all low IQ people).

ATI Nova Liberty selling their version for only $100 as-is in their returns department are KINDA proof how well they are made (no not Crosman's Kral).

Check AoA first including their shipping cost compared to buying from Crosman Direct at MINUS 25% off retail using AGNATION discount code and order Friday morning or FREE SHIPPING FRIDAY.

I would buy Crosman Kral guns any day over the Marauders as a personal preference shooting perfect straight out of the box and I do own a variety of Marauders and Krals.

I have the Avenger .25 ... and I would not cancel my order if I were you ! in fact I would order another in .22 👍 like I did with Rangy -RL airguns .... the Avenger that I have performs fantastic inside a dime size circle at 50 yards all day long other than the plastic stock it has the benji's beat ... 4350 psi fill , adjustable reg, great trigger after you lower the pull weight adjustment , side lever works fantastic like more expensive guns , metal pic rail , twin pressure gauges , and another BIG ! area this beats benji out in is the 6lbs weight , for myself the gun shoulders perfect fits my body like a glove ,and I don't mind the plastic stock it keeps this gun around 2 lbs lighter than the benji at the Avengers 6lbs .... so for about the same price as 1 of the new benji's you can buy both the Avenger .25 , and the .22 ..... or if you have the cash buy the Avenger's , and the Kratos go for it , if you end up not liking the Kratos you can send it back .... out of everyone that I know on the forums that have bought the Avenger's I have not heard 1 person that was un-happy ,and wants to return a good working Avenger back in , its just crazy good that you can get that much gun for 300 bucks ! ...

I absolutely love my avenger in 22. My only gripe is the plastic stock but everything else is great.

I think we will have a boyds or maybe richards micro fit will do ,and inlet- lets hope ...😄 . I know I can get richards to do a qb inlet cut ,and is what i used for my .40 XP badger it gave me a good start to cutting it to fit the badger , The Avenger I think would be a close match for the QB air tube so you would then have to cut out for the second air tube going back to the action plus trigger cut out gauge areas cut to fit along with air bleed ,and reg adjust holes ... I use air driven die grinder with a nice carbide tip + a large up right drill .....press with machinist vice ... pic is the badger with richards apache gold thumb hole laminate ...its really worth the extra work once its done ...

im really trying to figuer out if i should wait for the avenger for a month? at least. or just get a kratos or an akela? the only thing those are really missing is a regulator which u can get aftermarket right? i think i read that the kratos/kral, the way the bottle is setup, it basically acts like it has a regulator? something along the lines that the shots are so consistant you can't really tell it doesn't have one. so really whats it boil down to that i would be missing out on with the avenger? accuracy better? better with slugs or certain pellets? more FPE?
