Crosman Nitro Venom

hello this is a great rifle nice finish and weight for the money the scope is the problem you can not fix it you need to either get a new one or check your warranty I had the same problem with the scope and airgundepot.com send me the scope at no charge

Sorry, I don't know what a 100% soon stock is. But this rifle only shoots pellets and not BBs.

I am 70 years old with failing muscle , the cocking effort was 25 percent harder than my regular spring operated Gamo Rocket. The rifle would not zero with the scope supplied.

Silky

I have the dusk.22 and it likes the Crossman Hollowpoints.

I used Vortex Express pellets Only shoot around 100 rounds thru rifle seemed to do well all of a sudden started throwing pellets all over couldn't hit a baseball at 10 yards tightened all screws but same results im waiting on warmer weather to try again

Depends how far you are shooting your groups of 5 from... maintenance would just be cleaning the barrel every once and a while.

Grouping is dependent on shooter. Slightly less maintenance than a springer. Oil/ lube and pellets are the only consumables

Break the Barrel to load and cock the rifle. Hold the rifle barrel in the break position and hold it open with one hand while loading one pellet at a time with your trigger hand. Make sure the pellet is flush and close the barrel and it should be in safe position, ready to fire when the safety is pushed forward.

Functionally, it's like any other breakbarrel. all you need is pellets.

Gary, When the website says "Refurbished." Could be an item returned by a customer, could have been used for photography and/or could have been used for promotional purposes. Guns in this category may have been shot. May show evidence of handling and normal wear from use. Most are in great condition, comparable to a new one at a discounted price. Hopefully that answers your question. Sincerely, The Airgun Depot Customer Care Team.

The trigger on my Nitro Venom works well for me and I have no problem keeping the rifle on target. It is smooth and seems to get better the more I shoot it, but trigger feel is a personal preference and what feels good to one person may not feel good to someone else. The Nitro Venom is an excellent rifle for the money. It does not have the best trigger or the worse either. If you don't like the trigger, you can always change it.

The trigger is fair to not very good. It has an adjustment, but mine came adjusted all the way. It is a long trigger pull and a fairly hard trigger pull. I am going to put an after market trigger on mine eventually.

Typical crossman trigger-long and creepy and a little heavy . Havent done it myself but a charlie gold trigger seems to solve that problem.

I got rid of the scope and put on a better one. Can't remember if there was anti movement tape on the rings of the original scope, but even if there is, replace it or put more over the top of what is there. I use double sided sticky tape. It is hard to align your scope this way because once you lay it in the bottom rings with that tape, it won't move but that is what you want. Once you get it aligned in bottom rings and put the top rings on with tape, you don't have to overtorque the screws, just snug them up. Better on tube! That scope will NOT slip in the rings!!

Just the trigger guard is plastic. The trigger is a metal trigger with grooves in the front.

From what I know only the trigger guard is plastic. I love this gun so if a problem does develops I will have it replaced a metal guard at McMurray and Son in Gardena, CA..

The trigger and guard are not plastic. Some of the internal parts may be but I dont know as i have not removed the assembly from the rifle.

Yes, at this price.

No, the spring (or in this case, a nitro-piston), is maxed out.

Bro... You live in canada. We can't even buy this gun from here :/

This is about as quiet as you can get with an airgun of this power. The pellet hitting whatever your target is will be louder than the actual shot.

Concur with Daniel. Once you zero your scope, it's very accurate at 20 & 30 yards. I use cheap Crosman Premier. Hollow Point Pellets and get consistant group within 1". At 50, I'm not as good - I know it's me and not the rifle but like to hear my 4" spinner consistantly "tink" just holding it the rifle - no bench.

This gun is very accurate at 20, 30 yards. I have shot it at 60 yards using the 2nd mil dot on the scope and can get a three pellet grouping of about 1.5 inches. I am very pleased with the gun.

It has some power, but I wouldn't take a goose (providing it's legal), with this over 20yds.....head shot only.

950

Yes this would be good, but if you want more power, get the .22 version of this.

I'm very happy with my nitro crossman its very powerful and quiet. Friends that have used it are upset they didn't get the same one as me. The scope and scope mount are allso very nice you won't be disappointed.

I just purchased this gun for my son, and found it to be a great piece. The high velocity and good scope make it great for target shooting, small game, etc. The 1,200 fps muzzle velocity makes it a better candidate for longer distances. Real nice feel in your hands..

Accuracy is better with the Trail, value, about the same...

But the Trail XL series is a lot more powerful.

Hi, Shawn; The Crosman Nitro Venom series and Benjamin Trail series air rifles share the same internal parts. Same powerplant (Nitro Piston), same trigger and sear assemblies. The differences lie in the choice of stock, the configuration of the barrels (such as, whether or not they have muzzle brakes, shrouds, or barrel weights ("jackets"), and the type of scope rails offered (3/8" versus Weaver). The Crosman guns are marketed toward more budget conscious consumers, so generally will have less detail or fewer additional options, whereas the Benjamin branded airguns will have more "bling". Underneath, however, they work just as well. :)

Accuracy could be better, but an overall good nitro piston gun for $170

Very accurate. Every time I go to shoot it's just great. Doesn't make much noise at all. It was a good purchase for me

the shot cycle is short and rather quiet, the penetration with all pellets is remarkable, the trigger is not great but, it is an air rifle not an anti-sniper rifle. I have been able to shoot some 2in groups at 50yds with the benjamin hollow points. At 60yds it still blows through 1/2in plywood with ease. It shoulders well (a bit on the heavier side but a very solid gun. The 3-9x32 mil-dot centerpoint scope holds zero and is fairly repeatable. I decide on the venom model due to the scope rail being solid mount and many people complaining about the dove tail mount that many guns are equipt with. The Benjamin trail np is the same platform but higher priced, and have never been too fond of carrying a thumb through stock around. Now I need to figure out a good way to sling it..... I would definately buy again, tree rats at 40yds and under look like they have been hit with a 22LR hollow point. They do make an impressive hole....hehehehehe

Great looking rifle and the quality is very good. This thing has power, I'm shooting holes though half inch plywood @ 30 yards. I still haven't shot 100 rounds and the power and accuracy keeps getting better with every shot. If your just getting started and on a budget like me you can't beat the price for so much fun. The only thing I regret is not getting a case for it to protect the beautiful finish.

Yes, a lot quieter than a .22lr, or your average springer for that matter.

It is pretty quiet since it is a nitro piston, but still somewhat loud.

Steve is exactly right, and makes a good point: most of the noise that you, the shooter, hear from a spring piston gun is sound transmitted through the stock from the firing cycle. That is, the twang and buzz from an expanding and rotating metal mainspring, and the whack of the piston slamming into the face of the compression tube. The Nitro Piston airguns have no metal mainspring - so no twang and buzz and chatter - and the firing cycle is much more rapid than with metal. The shorter impulse, couple with the reduced noise, make them very pleasant to shoot. Bear in mind, however, that most of the noise your neighbors hear when you shoot airguns comes from the excess gas escaping behind the pellet, and from the pellet hitting the target. This noise is relatively identical, whether you are shooting an airgun with a metal spring or a Nitro piston. Additionally, remember that your pellet will make a surprisingly loud "crack!' if it goes trans-sonic (meaning, if it has a muzzle velocity of about 1100 fps or more at sea level)...

its not any quieter than any other nitro gun but there is no twang like a regular spring gun and the noise has quicker shot cycle than a spring gun, hence it seems alot quieter and the noise is directed away from where you are shooting so you hear most of the shot cycle not the prey. it sounds very quiet at 15yds down range and 10yds to the side of the firing line.
