Air venturi avenge x review
Please ...
As someone who hasn't even bought a PCP rifle yet, your channel has been _super_ helpful. Thank you for all the detail you give.
Steve;
I have been following you on both channels to find your videos superbly informative. Needless to say, you seem a knowledgeable, well-learned bloke in the air-gun genre. Thank you for all your expertise explained in a most jovial and structured format. Please, continue the great presentations, for you are a source of much needed information to me, a neophyte in the PCP community.
This video is almost meditative. Really enjoyed it.
Haven’t owned an air rifle since a Crosman I had as a teenager back in the 90s. Looks like there have been some crazy advancements.
Thanks for all your hard work and the free education you've been giving me Steve.
As always excellent work. In case you were not aware of it, 2 weeks ago Donnie (Baker Airguns) shot the Avenger in Central Ohio Benchrest competition. He came in 8 out of 21 in class. (I beat him @ 5th 😉). He beat a bunch of people shooting $2000 and up guns with his stock 22.
Thats amazing.
Holy crap. Was this like “stock stock” out of the box? I wondered about this. I always thought, these things keep tight groups. My Umerex Fusion will just about drop a bullet into a bullet at 20-30 yrds with the Crossman Premiums, I think, haven’t shot that one in a while. That’s using those air rifle targets with the, maybe 1/8” dots. No wind. I figured with some finagling I could get that out of my Gauntlet or the Avenger when I get that. I wasn’t sure that would be good enough to compete. Found a club in So Cal. Gonna see what they got scheduled out.
Haha wish I had noticed this before ordering an Armada in .25 & .22 Caliber. For hunting purposes though I’m still completely happy, and they both produce ridiculously good accuracy. It’s nice shooting these airguns in the backyard, the powder burners are just too expensive to shoot atm.
Ok
Yup Cheap Chinese junk still suks. 2nd place is still first loser! LMAO😂😂😂😂
😍 thank you. About 7 years ago I put out a review on TH-cam of the the hatsan model 95, which I have shot thousands and thousands of rounds through since then. It’s been an absolute workhorse but I haven’t kept up with the airgun industry and wanted to see what to get next and if prices have come down at all. I saw your review on the news hatsan flash models and was considering them, but now I think I may just get this air venturi. Thanks for the work you put into your videos to help us all make informed decisions.
Hi, I think this Air Venturi Avenger has opened the gateway for lots of folks with shallower pockets to enjoy and reap the benefits of latest pcp technology at affordable price.
Thank you for the wonderful introduction and review. BTW, I hope I am the winner of the giveaway :)
You did it again my air gun friend, I've ordered another one of your reviewed guns! Thanks for the great videos and keep them coming
You've quickly become my new "go to" for reviews on airguns that I'm interested in buying.
I placed an order today for this gun, on the strength of your review, and I cant wait for it to arrive.
Honestly I've heard nothing but good things about it all over the internet, so I figure I cant go wrong with this gun as my "break in" to PCP's.
Thanks for all your hard work out here...I got into airgunning about a year ago and unfortunately I dont know much.
It's from guys like you who teach me the things I need to know, and it's very much appreciated.
Did you buy it, is it worth it?
@@inevern8027 definitely is
Nice touch adding the tuning video, much appreciated !
No doubt Air Venturi has a winner there. That was a good review Steve !
Love your composite video @ 18:50 Been watching your vids since your day one and really appreciate your attention to detail and great info.
Great video! Very informative info and I find very valuable. Thanks for the hard work you put in on all your vids!
Thank you once again!! So happy I ran across your vids and channels.
✌️Brother
This rifle slaps! got mine last Friday and gave it a quick eco-tune. Plus put some hardware in space between the barrel and screw cap. Enough to get the bark down a bit. Poly pillow stuffing in the butt stock makes it sound less hollow and cheap. Got it zeroed in with 1 mag at 25 yards and at that distance it's boring accurate with the couple pellets I tried. No POI shift between different kinds. Thank you again for all the info and tuning specs!
Mines on back order.... was slated for 10/20, now 11/9.... new to pcp arena. This video was what sold me on this model. Can’t wait. My bottle’s at 4500 and I’m counting down the days.
First class review as always Steve.Good thing this one is reasonably priced. People are going to be dishing out a LOT of 💰💰💰 on ammo!!
Absolutely one of the best “value” airgun PCPs I have purchased hands down. Nova Vista did a fast 1/4 mile with this one!👍💯🤷♂️ Same crazy accuracy as my Liberty .22 only this time with .25😁😊👌Fat high 5 Air Venturi!
Fantastic review Steve, also covering the Flaws and issues of the rifle that you found. Forever Honest with the consumer
I appreciate your presentation, thoroughness, and humor. Thank you for the deep dive!
Great video as always! Pretty astonishing quality for the price! Looking forward to getting these up in Canada!
Thank you Steve and Tyler for all the good information, I ordered the Avenger thinking last April and still waiting for it to ship. 🤷🏻♂️
There's going to be a long waiting line for this one. Just a fabulous review. No on does it better. Thanks Steve.
Glad I put my order in on June 5th.
👍july .25
Had mine shipped and in my hands only to realize it was a.22 and I ordered the .25😂. They said end of September...
Great review! Mine shows up in a couple of days. Am I the only one who was sweating through the entire video thinking he was going to knock the bipod off the table?
You make some very good points, I did a video at 25 yards with excellent results
Later did a follow up video at 50 yards and I was getting 3 inch groups. After viewing my video I was pretty sure we were shooting a bit to fast for a 14.3 pellet(880 fps).
Your video confirms that for me and I will have to revisit 25 and 50 yards with lower reg settings.
Thanks for your informative video👍
great information, thank you for sharing. Best, Steve
Good job on the review ,, glad someone come out with one that people like me can afford..Looks like its a pretty darn good gun for what i do down here in Oklahoma.. thanks for the review ..
I think you have the best airgun channels on youtube
Thanks Steve! I purchase this rifle in .25 and set it to the pro tune all based on your review.
I really expected this review!
As always IMPECCABLE work. Keep it up don't change a thing!
Thank you very much!
Greetings from Argentina
Greetings!!
Great review, best one I've viewed on TH-cam.
Beautiful photography towards the end. Thanks :)
I can't wait to save money for this puppy.
I just want to tune it.
Also I'm so glad .22 is getting some love.
awesome review.
As usual, awesome review and very useful and straight no chaser information. Thanks again
What a fantastic rifle for a steal price!!!
Thanks Steve. Excellent review. At this price I have to buy one. 💣💣💯💯
finally the review i have been waiting for thanks steve
This is the perfect rifle for someone like me on SS
When this man says," I go through your comments" he really means it .
Thanks! Great info! Now, I’ll go check out mine! 😊
Been thinking about buying a intro pcp. Was going to pick up the umarex gauntlet. But I think im going to get the air venturi. Seem like this is a better deal then the gauntlet. Thanks for the review made it clear for me on what to buy.
Great detailed review. I'm really liking this pcp.
Thanks for all of your hard work!
Yippee!!! Called PYA today and mine in .25 will be here next week! Finally. Man I can’t wait to see what is the same and what is different from my awesome Liberty’s. Thanks for all your hard work Steve. Your videos are really going to help. BTW if they can make this gun for under 100$ just imagine how bad we are being taken on other air guns that we are being charged so much more for. Thanks again God bless.
Well, point isn't that, lol. If they make it for 100, sell it to the distributor for 200, the distributor sells it to the retailer for $250 (and that's not including freight from China and then to the retailer)... I don't see anyone winning big except the consumer, unless they all hit volume. The boutique brands are manufactured WAAAAY better than this and are WAY better appointed too. They're quite costly to produce is what I'm saying 👍
Airgun Exploration & Advancement Channel I don’t doubt any of that. I still think we’re being taken for a ride with some of these high dollar pellet guns.
Have mine for a week now. Thank you for the info. It’s one accurate pellet gun alright. Great gun for $300. Have trigger set at HAIR, the only way I lot it. Left pressure at factory specs buy maxed out the hammer spring tension- it hits like a sledge hammer. I lube it after each set ( roughly 50 rounds ). Bottom line is: a GREAT. purchase at this price point. I’m just hoping someone gets busy and manufactures a wood stock for it.
woodstock is out now
@@bushwhookie1334 I am thinking about buying it, how reliable is it and how bad is the stock? Did you have same problem asmentioned in the video (damaged o-rings)?Thanks
@@inevern8027 wait get the gauntlet 2
@@bushwhookie1334 Are you talking about Umarex UX Exclusive Gauntlet (Krale shop)?
It is 550€, Air venturi avenger sits at 400€, and Hatsan flash QE 370€. Wich one would you choose and why? (in .25 caliber)
Awesome shooting Steve very accurate air gun wow 👏thanks for sharing bsafe buddy 👍
Nice video like the fact you can adjust it and side lever
Yahoo its here i see the happyness on ur face about this gun thank you for the video
So it must be a good iguana hunting gun. Lol I might pick one up to see if I can take a few little piggies here in Texas. Good to see you back brotha!
Excellent explanation and review. Thanks !
I've got the Avenger in the bullpup configuration. Cleaned the barrel. Out of the box without any tuning it absolutely loves H&N Grizzlies. About a half inch group at 50 yards with an improvised rest.
I got this gun in .25 I love the light weight. power shot count and accuracy
Thanks for the great videos. I am looking for my first high quality air gun for plinking and taking out tree rats (squirrels). This seems like a great fit, but I too am not happy about the plastic stock. Even a high quality polymer like the lower of a handgun would have made this a no brainer, now I am stuck in analysis paralysis deciding on which rifle to get.
Steve I think the rifle is excellent, a comparison of others and what is more expensive.
the grouping with the ojibas fx spectacular.
Fabulous airgun video content. Thanks, Steve!
Great review. Looking forward to get one.
Great job Steven! 💯👍
New airgunner, your video got in front of me. Love the lab radar, love the data, prolly gonna have to pick on of these up. My wallet ?thanks? you? Yea it probably doesn't but hopefully this will keep the 'have to have the best' gremlins at bay.
Steve. After seeing your Instagrams posts, I was thinking this was the poor man's FX Impact. After watching this review, I think it might be if you follow your instructions and maintain the suggested maintenance schedule. Great job!
Lol, it ain't that, not even close but it is a lot of fun and does get the job done 🙂
Good
Steve as has become the norm your revives lead the league in info that goes so much deeper than most.What I think many of us would like to see you do is an occasional"Looken Back " segment on some of the guns you review. The real value in any air gun is how it holds up long term. A great price like $300 for this particular PCP is REALY only a good deal if it doesn't have problems down range after it has been shot for 2,000-4,000 pellets. There is a reason the price is only $300 .I'm not saying this gun won't hold up over time but getting some feedback from the field from 10 folks that have used it for a while would be of interest . I guess perhaps the Board Buzz on any air gun catches up with it sooner or later ,but when a breakaway air gun like this hits the market finding out how it does after the initial applause dies down is important.
What do you think about doing some follow up on some of the guns you review ?
Thanks for al the energy you put into your work.

Thanks for the nice note, I appreciate it. Being an industry reviewer has been great but one of the downsides for sure is that most of what I review goes back right afterwards. Also, my world now is "get it done and on to the next one" because the "gotta get to" line is long and never ending. Long term reliability reporting will need to be up to you guys and I've made peace with that... kinda like it even. In the years after the reviews, I enjoy reading y'alls shares & comments here and on the forums. It helps me to gauge a brand, which helps me know if I want to host another in the future. That all being said, I have held on to the Avenger, so perhaps I'll share some more about it down the road. Best, Steve
Awwww yeah been waiting on this 1👍👍
Great review. That’s so much gun for so little coin!
Nice job Steve! Now that Gauntlet and Liberty trio in my gun room don't make my eye twinkle quite so much.....hmmmm what to do? LOL
Wish list that one, when will it come to these islands, just wondering. Always great review. Keep it up.
Fully detailed review.
Aloha and God bless
Great review! Your the best!
Thanks for the video. I'm wanting to get into the PCP world but it's been hard to justify the cost since I already do very well squirrel hunting with a $150 break barrel. These rifles look like a great way for someone like me to experience a repeater PCP without breaking the bank
I really like mine. Steve
Nice review sir steve... it looks like an upgraded version of my nova vista hp900w 🙂
I think I just found my new air gun and great review 👍🏾
👍
Awesome review bud!
Finally, a good quality budget friendly gun.
Parabéns, sempre um ótimo review! 👏👏👏
Always great videos!
I like the face of steve when he is impressed by the performance of the gun ..haha
Nice information 👌.Seems like a winner at the price.
You convinced me,just ordered one from Pyramyd Air.
Great video, and a great rifle.
Great review as always 👏
Great review! Sad I missed the giveaway
:(. You should do a review side by of this and the umarex gauntlet as this appears to be a huge debate in the budget PCP category! Thanks for the video !
It's good to see the industry challenging one another 😊
Steve is the man to give you great useful info on any gin he reviews I admire the work he puts in on these videos the tuning video on the 22 avenger was the best I’ve seen on tuning an air gun I agree with most but I’m not sure if the 22 can make the same power as the 25? I have the 25 and shooting the 34gr putting out more than 43FPE which the 22 is maxed out but nevertheless the less Steve you’re the man on Gun reviews you can see the hard work you put into every video
The .25 has a larger transfer port and makes more power. We know this now 👍😊
Awesome info dude. This gun is a game changer, I think one of these is in a box behind the Christmas tree right now. I think it was supposed to be a .25 and has been pre-ordered for two months, it shows up early and she said she ordered the wrong one, lol. I'll see where this goes, I did want the .25, but I don't own a .22 cal airgun, maybe I'll keep it and order a .25 cal after Christmas, sounds like that may be a good plan, I mean, it's a .22 that I don't have and why would ya send back a perfectly good airgun, it may get damaged in all the shipping, nobody wants that to happen, decisions, decisions. ;-D
Steve, you do a wonderful job of reviewing, evaluating and explaining things. Based to a large degree on your review, I've bought an Avenger in .22, and am very happy with it :). I've followed your instructions for the Pro Tune and would love for you to do a video on how to tune a PCP. There are so many variables that I'm puzzled about the order in which to do things. I'm not even sure what I'm looking for with the chrony. How about a tutorial video?
Hi David. Check out my latest Vlog with PJ Clarke. I believe you'll find it emensely helpful. Best, Steve
yet another fantastic review
I love that gun. It is all around good gun I can't believe it's price
Awesome review and rifle greatjob
Looks like an awesome combination of features/power and PRICE!
Steve thanks again for the fantastic review gotta get me one ☝️
I was going to buy the gauntlet ,but this is by far a better rifle.
I bought the gauntlet in .25 and am modding it to be a 60+ fpe gun, and this will be my .22
Great review on a great budget airgun! "Entry level" keeps getting higher and more bang for the buck.
Noticed that you used a bipod on the plastic pic rail instead of your trusty front bag. Wondering why?
Also noticed a nicely detailed red vehicle with fancy wheels in the background of one of the pics. When is the auto detailing channel gonna be up and running?
Any news on AEAC merchandise?
Also, noticed all the crap(tripods, vid cams, etc...) that you have to haul out to the shooting site(and all the prelim testing). You should get an intern to do all the "grunt work" and free up your time so you could do more vids faster for us😜.
Keep up the great job; always enjoy your vids, Phil
I wanted to film performance with the accessory rail because it's a prominent feature of the gun. Also, narrow, tall, and light are miserable from the bags. Funny u ask about the detaing channel, Katya asked the same today... answer is not sure. Looking for the time, lol. On the merchandising, our prototype made in America t-shirts arrived just today. We're zeroing in on a final design and working on patents & copyrights simultaneously. Hoping we'll be ready in a month or two 👍
And, remember to put this meme “ You know the best way to thank them! “ on your merchandise.
The best review. The best.
Took delivery of the Avenger .25 few days ago,attached a Hawke Vantage scope,quickly zeroed,using a FX Radar.
First pellets I put threw chroney was JSB Exact King 25,39gr, rifle reg was maxed out of the box and average FPS was 944,so shooting hot.
Next up was NSA slugs,26,8gr average FPS was 902,so probably this setup suiting the slugs,will lower reg and HS to get the pellets around 880 FPS.
Overall the accuracy good,will improve with fine tuning and me getting used to the rifle.
From what I`ve seen with other reviewers and rifle reg pressure,dropping the reg to 2700 seems to give better air efficiency,without effecting FPS a great deal.
Quick update on fine tuning the Avenger in .25
Degassed and lowered reg to about 1600psi,using JSB 25,39gr was getting 791 fps,so quarter turn on reg and was getting 845fps,slightly less of a quarter turn on reg was hitting 872fps.
50Yard accuracy was sub 1 inch.
Getting 6 mags to a fill before dropping and I`m not filling tank to its max pressure,just filling to 4000psi.
Reg pressure is showing 2000psi.
Also quick update for Steve,not getting any POI from removing DonnyFL Sumo before refill,so happy with that.
These JSB Exact Kings are super accurate,don`t think I need anything else,but I`ve ordered some JSB Hades,for the time been I`m going to shoot pellets and get used to the rifle,already have FX and NSA slugs to mess around with.
How many shots are you getting with your .25 before it falls off the regulator?
@@aeropixx Depending on tune.
Getting 5 mags on slug tune,thats 2400psi.
Pellet tune around 1900psi getting 6 mags but I fill rifle tank to 4000psi so 500psi below max,I think filling to max mite stress my compressor even though it can do this pressure you don't lose much from slightly lower fill pressure.
For $300 this rifle punches way above it's price and is perfect for people who like to tinker.
What an incredibly good video.
Had the Averager for a while now and it's performing like a champ.
Favorite ammo Hades for Diablo style pellet.
Slug ammo I'm liking the FX Hybrids but be aware when pesting and you hit your target,you get a audible thwack/pop sound,which is telling me it's dumping that energy very well.
I'm using a DonnyFL Sumo silencer (awesome product) and I have to remove when refilling I'm getting NO poi but if your concerned about this Donnyfl does make a new adapter that solves this or you get a slimmer silencer which Donnyfl make and I believe 0-db make good silencers so a few choices are available.
Overall had zero issues,accurate out to 75 yards easily.
Get used to rifle tinkering youll need a chrony and have fun.
Wat threads do u buy it in to fit this rifle?
Great review a lot of gun for the mon!!!!!
More and more impressed every time I see this gun. I always love to see a product that makes the industry up its game...any numbers on the 25 caliber?
Not for me but others have reviewed it, Ted, Rick, etc
FYI The barrels are cut off with a Wire EDM Machine. like an Electric Cheese Cutter. The finish on the end of the barrel is the give away. The cut is as close to perfectly square to the axis of the bore as is possible so there is no need for a crown as all the lands and grooves terminate in the exact same place.
Very nice video. I have just starting to research this Air rifle. It is my fist peek into the Air game. Curious, that size game do you feel comfortable taking with it? Squirrels, rabbits, crows and ravens or ? What do you feel the optimum pellet-slug would be for you type of hunting? Also it has been 2 years, what are your current opinions on the performance and operation? Thanks
As usual great video. Very informative. Ps lube your o rings lol
Lube your rings!! Lol 😄
@@AEAC sorry o rings
This does it for me. I've been holding onto (6) $100 bills for months, unsure if I should make this purchase. Pyramid is supposed to have more .22 models in stock on 2-8-2021. I'm also going to get a yong heng HPA conpressor. Looks like $600 well spent.
Smashing, great value gun.
If only it were coming to the UK 🇬🇧 😪
Put a good word in with the manufacturer Steve 😀
Maybe join our IG life Friday and ask them then? 😊
Like the guy below me said this is definitely going to change the game for entry level pcps. Wondering could this be filled up with a hand pump? Love the review!
I do, to redline.
