Air Venturi has set the bar for inexpensive top notch PCP with the Avenger !!!

[Dan H]

i also got my gun from randy super good guy to deal with i ant shot mine yet what do you guys think mine can with a 2700 psi in gun so far ant leaked any air reg set at 2700 best i can tell will it be ok to just run gun at that reg preusure just going to hunt with it

Fred mine was set to 2900psi when I got it and there's no way that I could have gotten this many shots with the reg set that high, my hammer is turned all the way back too.



They're so darned easy to adjust and it was basically a no brainer for me

  Wayne ... my hammer is turned all the way out also , reg's at 2200 psi  880 fps 25.39   , where did you set  your reg at ?

[Wayne52]

Dan the regulator on mine is set for 1.9K, I check with the gauge that's on my fill adapter as well and it's pretty close to what the regulator gauge reads on the gun.

Sounds Good ... about the same as the .25 gauntlet , I need to go below reg pressure ,and double check it with my fill gauge to see if the gun gauge matches also ...

On the last turn going all the way out on the hammer spring , I lost about 5 fps  down to 880 fps ,so I left it there . I will have to try lowering the reg pressure ,and see what kind of reaction I get ...

wanyne thanks you and other guys for the replys i got jsbs in 25 grain and 33 and some hades and some poly mags i not shot this rifle yet but i am like you guys 2700 psi pretty hi i know over powering pellets makes group get big i never adjusted the reg let me see if i got this right bleed all the air out of gun then turn reg bolt clock wise then re fill and chack guage i wateing on some bursk disk my yong hen blowed a disk out other day

[Wayne52]

Fred the way I did it was like the manual said, first bleed the gun with the bleed screw, after completely empty tighten it back up then turn the regulator screw clockwise til it snug, fill the gun and then turn up the reg pressure back up in slight increments until you're happy with where it's at.

Hey Wayne, I still have some of your custom cast pellets that I will be shooting through the Avenger. But first I have to finish the Walnut Stock. 3 days so far and the inletting is complete. Once I have a nice stock I will stock for accuracy.

All the best!
Stephen

[Wayne52]

Stephen I've no doubt that stock will look really nice once you're done with it, I can't remember if I sent you the 26 grain or the 34.5 grain ones, either one works good in mine.  I tried the 34.5 grain when I first got mine and they were super accurate in the woods but didn't chronograph them.  That's when it was set for 2900psi.  That's to high IMO, I think 2500psi would be more like it and maybe even less.

The more I read these avenger threads, the more I want one! Are they still out of stock everywhere?

Yes still out of stock ...   I am waiting for my .22  from RL air gun supply ,,, the .25 is so good I had to get on Randys waiting list  at RL 

[Wayne52]

Here's a five shot group that I did with mine a couple of days ago at 50 yds.  I was using my cast 26 grain meplat NOE pellets.

There were a few still showing up online last week. You did not say which caliber had your preference.
New England airguns still had an avenger in  .177 available earlier today.
I'm sure there are still a few hidden on the net available for purchase.

Ronan,
Thanks for the heads up.  I have the 22 but want the 177 also.  I almost pulled the trigger on this morning after reading your reply but not sure.  Have you or anyone had any experience with NE Airguns.  They want 44bucks for shipping, plus not sure on the return policy.  Also if I have an issue looks like I will need to pay for the return shipping??? Not sure if I should get on a waiting list from another company I'm used to or get from NE Airguns

I sadly have as of yet zero experience in that area (returns, warranty...) as the first and only air rifle I bought new online is on its way to me right now. Additional shipping charges is a consideration to butt against the out-of-stock / pre-order alternative.

[Wayne52]

Well folks it looks as though Nova Vista didn't listen to people on the forums about they're faulty poppets because I went to mount a brand new scope on my Avenger and it was empty.  It's definitely leaking through the poppet too.  I wonder if duy is working on a replacement poppet for them yet   What a rotten thing and Air Venturi should have addressed to dilemma long before the prototypes (if any) arrived.  Well if and when duy makes a poppet for the guns I'll definitely be doing some mods when I take the gun apart because I sure the heck don't feel like playing the shipping game with this gun.

[Wayne52]

I just re-watched Stephen's video about his 25 cal Avenger and he said the poppets are the exact same as the ones that came in the Liberty, I lucked out because I bought two of them from duy, I still haven't used the spare yet so that will be going into this gun soon but I'll be taking it to the woods today and figure I might as well use up the pressure that's in it which I charged to 4K for sighting in with my new scope for it and get a little hunting in with it.

[Back_Roads]

 That is a bummer for sure, my original Liberty had the poppet let go this spring I have the stuff to make a new poppet, just have not had much time to tinker, I guess that is what the dead of winter is for in my case.

[tracker1955]

I got about a year out of my first LIberty poppet, tried to repair the one I had with Delrin with limited success, ended up just buying a replacement from Pyramyd air, it's still working for now but I know it will fail any time. The one I bought was for the Aspen but it's the same poppet.

[buddyb]

I'm looking at the Avenger as well. So how hard is it to replace a poppet since I've never owned a pcp gun before, and do they go out often?

[tracker1955]

A lot depends on what they are made of and the pressures they see, throat size etc. The one in my Marauder lasted about four years before needing to be replaced, my Liberty about a year. How hard it is to change differs with each rifle, consider the difference in working on one car compared to another, airguns much the same.

[Wayne52]

I ended up taking mine out in the morning to sight it in, I did get it really close and started heading for where I was thinking about hunting, about the time I got there I heard a hissing sound, sure enough, after sighting it in it started leaking really fast, I shot it several more times, it slowed down but by this time it was below the reg setting so I headed home, got the Liberty, headed back out there and by that time it was getting late for the good squirrel hunting and I didn't really see much but a couple of far off red squirrels.   I did get it sighted in with the 23 grain magnum hunters for the next time out, it seems to like them a lot.
