Beeman Sportsman RS2 Teton .22

Beeman Teton 1052 .22


   I have had this since the beginning of June. I have around 350+ shots in. The first 50 shots using GHI 15.4gr to get some of the first shots out of the way. Caulking cocking kahking the air rifle is abit heavy, possible around +35lbs. Shot cycle has some buzz nothing bothering though. This Wood Stocked Spring Piston Air rifle is very good at 30 yards and 50yards. Soo far I have used Apolo Dome Heavy< ADH 16.0gr, the fit is good and consistent and does good.  I'll check other pellets at a later time.
  Handling Feels long and a little heavy. Nice open fiber insert sights front is a hooded red insert , rear is green insert with numbered click adjust. Smooth ball lockup, nice silver colored adjustable trigger. Nice Dark Wood Stock.
 The included 4x32mm scope is clear and holds zero very good. I mounted the scope around 200 shots in. Little to no smoke after the shot. I'll be mounting a Barska 4x32mm AO MD in soon time.

  I'm sure using lighter pellets the Teton would gain  +/- 1.0 FPE. I'll check other pellet performance at a later time.

 Not a bad gun, I cut my teeth on one,shooting higher power springers, prior think D24, learned to shoot it pretty darn good. I passed it along to my BIL to harass chipmunks.

 Back_Roads,
 
 I like this Beeman Teton.22 very much. I bought it from midwe stgunworks dotcom. They had a good low price and shipping that was at an acceptable price.
 Before beginning I had removed the stock screws to strengthen the attachment points  on the wood for the stock screws. A few applications of Superglue to bothe front holes and the rear screw hole. I also added blue lock tight to the stock screws. Later I will be getting more Chrono numbers, not sure which Airgun will be run through the chrono but I will see.
 Man I think I would very much like the .177 model.. but maybe at a later time.

  I tried testing CPiranha 14.3gr which most were a snug fit. The low was 690 FPS and high of 730 FPS. The CPHP had a lighter fit and had more consistency in FPS Spread.
I removed the included 4x32mm scope and continued with open sights.

Nice! The rs2 is the best higher power springer for the money, IMO.
I have a .177 rs2 Longhorn that I call 'The Starling Reaper'.
It puts out about 16-17ftlbs and is very accurate with Walmart crosman 7.9's.

PelletSport,
 It's good and fun but the best? Idk hard to pick a best of anything as each does something better than the next. I really like the trigger on the RS2. I Also have a B1074, switch barrel .177-.22. Synthetic stock, muzzle compensator on barrels, puts out 13.5FPE in .177 and around 14 FPE in .22- seems abit lower powered than what it should be, i have new piston seals that I would like to install im sure id get a small boost in power... But I still need to build a spring compressor.
 I think CPUM 14.3gr would do very good as they have a fit that is abit more consistent than the CPHP 14.3gr. There are a lot of pellets I can test but the early shots I like using lower costing pellets.
