Awesome airgun. Powerful. Accurate. I selected this rifle over some of the more expensive ones because of the wide range of slugs it can shoot using the same magazine. And obviously because it is less expensive. ($2000 for an FX airgun is just a little too hard to justify. They are, after all, just airguns.)I have fired 81 gr up to 163 gr slugs using the original magazine. You can fire even heavier slugs with the addition of a single shot tray placed in the magazine well. I have seen slugs up to 220 gr fired accurately with this rifle.It is easy modify and upgrade this rifle yourself. (check out pit bull airguns for parts and service). It’s almost like they designed this airgun to be easily modified. Mounted a vortex scope, extended air reservoir and stronger hammer spring. Now I get about 15 shots before pressure drops to 2000psi. Still effective for small game at that pressure also. Simple to top off with air tank and back in business.Having received the rifle this last spring I have not had the chance to hunt any big game yet, but the destructive ground squirrels on my property have come to fear me!A little bulky and heavy towards the front of the gun. A bi pod attached to the included rail system easily fixed that issue.There are higher quality rifles out there for a much higher price. But I have not found any magazine fed airguns that allow the wide range of slugs to be used. Most use just 81.2 gr pellets. Which is fine if all you want to do is target shoot or scourge small animals. But the bulldog can, and has , been used for game as small as squirrels and as large as deer, antelope, wild boars, and larger African game. (Albeit with additional modifications.).I would like to see the cocking handle made out of steel rather than aluminum. With the upgraded hammer spring the aluminum handle works hard.Overall, very happy with the rifle. Good value for the money. Can handle almost all but the biggest North American game. With the 5 shot mags that change out quickly you could even give zombies a run for their money during the apocalypse.

This is my first PCP air gun, and it has been great. Been shooting with it for a couple of months, and it has been a real joy. I live in a pretty rural area, and have a pretty large back yard, so I'm able to make use of this at home.The good -It's a lot of fun, the noise can be listed as a pro and a con. A .356 pellet is basicaly a 9mm lead pellet. When you shoot, you really feel like there is a lot of power, so for things like target shooting for fun, this thing is just a hoot.With a Vortex scope I've been able to hold about 1" groupings at about 120'. So I think Accuracy is very good.The Power of this thing is just another part of the fun, I have been using old retired pots and pans for targets and this thing punches right through them. Wheel + Tire sets seem to have made pretty good bullet traps as well, the rounds will punch through the tire, but not the rim.I have not had any sort of failure to fire as of yet, the benjamin has been very reliable.Cons - Needs air. Pump sold separately.Limited shots without carrying an air cylinder or a pump. If you wanted to go hunting, you have about 11 rounds of air in the air gun itself. The magazines hold 5 rounds each, but special aftermarket magazines can hold 6!Actually filling a PCP air gun is kind of special. You can use a hand pump, which takes about 200 pumps, and that's kind of difficult, and then that gives this gun about 11 high powered shots. after about 10-11 shots your air cylinder will be around 1600-1800 PSI, at which your accuracy and power will decrease. So... Pump 200 more times, and your good to go for 10-11 shots more. A manual hand pump will also cost you 50-200+ Dollars, and you will need to remember to keep some sort of moisture filter system inline when you fill the air gun, because moisture will rot the inside of your air gun eventually.Alternatively, there are ways to make this process easier. They sell small compressed air tanks, or you can use a scuba tank or an SCBA tank. Refilling these however is harder than you might think. A home air compressor that you pump up tires with will only pump to around 160-200 PSI normally. To achieve a greater pressure you will need a special high PSI compressor. Getting one at home will run you (from what I've seen) 250-1000+ Dollars. So this is not as easy as just ordering the air gun and some pellets and going to have some fun. You have to figure out what will work for you. If you happen to have access to a scuba shop or a fire station, you can use Scuba or SCBA cylinders to refill the benjamin. You will need a special adapter/quick connect regulator with pressure relief to make this work. (Another $50). And high pressure is dangerous, so be careful.Noise, in the event you have closer neighbors and don't want to bother them with the noise of shooting, it is pretty loud. Without living in a rural place I would not be able to make use of this for target practice.Expensive: I think as PCP air guns get more popular cost will come down, but besides the air gun, you still need to spend extra before your able to operate it. Overall, I would definietly say that it has been worth it for me. But I can see it would be a deterent for others.
