Hatsan Hercules Bully

If you you want guys a great rifle for hunting or plinking this is The one

Pros
The bullpup design is great and it's a really powerful rifle

Cons
It's almost impossible to find the rifle in cal .177 please fix that

This has the potential of being a great whitetail gun, but if you buy it be prepared to mold and size your own bullets or settle for round ball. You will be on your own regarding customer support and correction of rough machining and a picatinny rail made of soft material. I paid close to $1000 for this gun shipped which I would not have done knowing what I know now.

Pros
Powerful. Compact design. Well balanced.

Cons
Delivered to me with a bent picatinny rail, making it impossible to mount and zero a scope. Customer support non-existent. Rough action very difficult to cock. Trigger very heavy and will need adjustment right out of the box. Owners manual useless. No mention of bore diameter, leaving you to guess whether to use .452, .454, or .457 diameter bullets. Magazine depth too shallow and loading port too narrow to accommodate most .45 bullets. Primarily a round ball gun. Exceptionally loud. QE technology no help. You will need to add a suppressor.

I bought my bully in .30 and its a lot of fun. Had to clean the barrel before it would shoot straight. I ditched the fill probe system and use a Huma bottle regulator with a quick connect fitting. Its much more convenient. Reg set at 170 bar, shoots slugs or pellets over 900fps consistently. Likes JSB 44gr best but slings NSA hp accurately over 100 yards. Good medium quality airgun

Pros
Powerful and accurate if tuned for your specific ammo.

Cons
Heavy trigger . The fill probe keeps using o-rings. Gun is well balanced but heavy . Hammer spring adjustment is a pain.

Even is a Qe ia a loud gun,manufacturer can deliver together with gun supresor in order to reduce noise level.This is not a toy beeing ?i powerfull is deadly in all caliber,suggest do not allowed for kids to use.

Pros
In 25 calibre limited Sand color,Heavy,strong build turkish original Hammer forged barell.Very precise gun at 100m for sharp,shooter who know how to use the wind when shot,easy adjustable power,very powerfull.For precision need heavier pellets.Choose prosper caliber for hunting according with your needs.Original sighting and the scope delivered with the gun are not perfect but are good enough If you adjust and know how to use them.

Cons
A wallnuts stock was perfect for this powerful gun,degasing screw material of build poor quality steinless steel was perfect.

Not all pellets fit to shoot this gun so be aware of pellets length and It didn’t come with the sling that’s promised.

Pros
Powerful, and worked nicely

Cons
Had scratches on it right out of the box

I just received my Hercules Bully yesterday. Everything seemed fine until i took my first few shot which were very very powerful i might add. After a few shots the safety got stuck in the off position. I had noticed when i first opened the gun that the safety felt very stiff and hard to move. After it got stuck i took the stock off and found that i had to adjust the trigger linkage a bit to get it working. (overall the safety design is not great it definitely could be better) maybe i got a dud but no matter how i adjust the linkage it move quite stiff. (hard to flick off with 1 finger. I also was missing the sling that it is supposed to include. One call to customer service and they sent me a sling right away, and told me i must call Hatsan to talk about the safety issue. Overall the customer service was good. As far as accuracy i don't have an answer yet as i have only taken about 10 shots. This air rifle is very very loud. I was shocked at the noise level. Hover i don't have much to compare it to as this is my first big bore air gun. I would say it is a bout 60% as loud as a 12 gauge shot gun. overall I am enjoying that gun. I think some parts could have better quality for the large price tag however its not the worst.

Pros
- extremely powerful - feels balanced

Cons
- not the smoothest action (very stiff but hey its got a heavy spring) - the Safety is not smooth. Definitely needs improvements.

I purchased the 45 cal ,after a few adjustments like the trigger this rifle comes with a heavy trigger,I adjusted the power about 2 full turns clockwise and my God this can do anything from buffalo to dinosaurs. I recommend not to shoot this in your backyard unless you live in the woods.My next test is a target at 100 yrds we will see.Well worth the $ and This bullpup is more fun to shoot than any other gun in my arsenal.If you decide to purchase the 45 cal definatly get you a 90 cup ft carbon tank I get quite a bit of fills.Hand pump is not recommended for this rifle.This is a serious tool not the average airgun.

Pros
Super power, multie adjustable, durable, fun,plenty of room for attachments, many uses, comfortable, compact, easy to take apart and reassemble,super accurate.

Cons
I don't have enough pellets Time to go shopping. Can't find strong enough targets.At least a 90 cu foot tank highly recommended.

I bought one of these one purpose... Hunting... This will make short
work from anything from woodchucks to whitetails... Carries good when
stalking in the woods, great for tree stand hunting whitetails.
I prefer the open sights for tree stand hunting, but that's just a
personal preference... Red dots work good too.. Most of my shots are
anywhere from 25 feet to 30 or 40 yds... The 3 magazines are a plus.
Get a good bipod and choose your ammo...

Pros
Easy to carry, easy access to the magazines provided, easy to fill, easy to shoulder and feels very comfortable.

Cons
The sling is crap...

I have the Benjamin Bulldog and can utilize a wide variety of ammo,have the 357 Bully and have only a very few choices to pick from can't even load larger ammo manually.Very disappointed, with these limitations.

Pros
Light weight

Cons
Limited ammo,pricey,

From the time I opened the box. My grin was so big, I thought my face would crack. Power out the ying yang. Accurate, omg, 3shots I was zeroed in at30 meters. It 6 shots to bullseye 100 meters. After 30 minutes I was 10 shots at 1" group. I'm 63 years old, I haven't shoot like that since I was in the military. Love this gun!!!

Pros
I can t find any fault. Many a regulator and power wheel. A Bully 257 cal. Yea!! 8

Cons
None
