This gun is fantastic! It is rugged, dependable, very accurate and very well made. The fiber optic open sights are incredible, it's like little light bulbs leading the way to the target, even in low light. The power is quite incredible, almost equal to my .22 rim fire rifle. I believe the 1200 FPS is accurate. The shots barely drop at 60 yards. I have use several types of pellets and they all work very well. It is a bit heavy though (about 8 lbs.) and the cocking is stiff but fairly easy to get used to when you master the technique. With that kind of power, it is worth it. The gun is very quiet, and does not sound like a gun going off at all. It sounds more like two pieces of metal hitting each other, sort of like slamming a screen door. That is just what I wanted for backyard plinking in a neighborhood area and I am very comfortable and happy with the sound effects. The pellets penetrate a heavy plastic bucket, sort of like a 5 gallon pail. They normally get stuck somewhere on the inside, and sometimes go all the way through. I think it has gotten a bit quieter as I have used it more. It comes highly recommended, from me anyway. I have not mounted the scope yet. Read full review

Looks great, good quality gun. The downside is that it is very hard to operate the break action ( hopefully it will get easier with use) and I find it a bit noisy. Louder than I expected. Considering returning it or maybe selling it,

For the money the overall quality of this air rifle is above average. The all wood stock and the metal parts have a nice finish. It is easy to load and accurate once you find the pellets it likes best. The weakest part of the rifle is the fixed sights (have not mounted the scope yet) and the trigger pull is a bit long. They work but are not the quality of the rest of the rifle. The trigger can be easily adjusted after checking out some video's on adjusting trigger pull. It has more than sufficient power for its intended use listed on the factory box.

Tried four different types of pellets and found that the Crosman spire points were the most accurate in this particular air rifle. At 50 feet I was consistently hitting a quarter sized target. I only have about 60 shots through it. Break in is said to be 250. I can't wait to see how it performs at that time. The trigger is smooth and the included scope is easy to mount. You can't have nothing but fun with this air gun!

I haven't completely gotten my Vantage broken in yet but so far it is a great air gun. My last air rifle cost three times what the Vantage did but I can not tell much difference in the quality. I love the nitro piston. It is much quieter than a spring loaded gun and there is much less recoil. All in all the Vantage is a great buy for the money spent.
