My dude you're blessed not spoiled. Your viewers are slightly spoiled with the wealth of information you provide, and that's ok. Thanks bud.

This video explained exactly what I wanted to know about this gun. Thanks for the straight-forward review, and for the commentary on what you gain, and what you don't with a more expensive gun.

Thanks for coming back to our level

Thank you for giving this review but more importantly, your honest opinion on this rifle. I've watched your videos for a long time and trust and respect your insight knowing your own accuracy and overall experience with air rifles. Thanks again and love your channel!

After watching too many airgun videos I must say that your presentations are the most accessible, comprehensive, useful and approachable by amateurs like myself. Thanks! (Subbed)

Wow. Airgun Depot is showing this rifle for just $349 US. That’s an incredible value for such a capable rifle. When you said half the price of a dreamline, that would be $550, and I would have expected that to be a decent price for this rifle. At $349, that’s a no-brainer. At $1,150 the Dreamline is off of most Americans’ shopping lists simply because we don’t need licenses to own firearms, and $1,000 buys a heck of a lot of rifle.

You’re probably sick of hearing this, but what a wonderful job with this vid. Incredible content, excellent editing where you didn’t make your viewers suffer though the little insignificant footage of loading/shooting of the gun. Thank you. I’m a wannabe and trying to figure this all out without wasting money as a 1st timer.

It's awesome seeing you review a "budget" pcp like the Avenger! You're absolutely right that pcps with these features at this rich point are excellent for getting people into pcp air rifles. I could buy 3 or 4 of these for the price of my Maverick! Excellent job!

I was really excited to get your professional evaluation on a value budget PCP..Great review, as usual. Thank you, again.

If Matt and Ted give this pcp a thumbs up then I'm sold.

I'm so glad that you reviewed the Air Venturi Avenger. Thank you! I've watched your channel for a long time now to figure out what is needed to get into PCP shooting. BTW your videos are first rate! I pulled the trigger on the purchase before your review, mine is already on the way from Pyramid Air. Your take on the economics is spot on. I didn't want to purchase an expensive rifle and a compressor together because of the cost. You know politics with the wife! I didn't want a hand pump because, although my back is much better than it was for years, I don't want to put it to the test. Thanks again for your review. You've set my mind at ease regarding my purchase. I can't wait for it show up!

glad to hear your thoughts on this gun. I ordered it yesterday as my first PCP. I did get it in the .25. thanks for putting this out.

You have convinced me, buying now.jist received this rifle, and now a friend I'd buying one, absolutely love this thing, it has opened a whole new world for me....thank you for this video.

Its air rifles like this that help get people into the sport. Good for Air Venturi on getting an affordable option to those who can afford an expensive setup. The more in the sport the more it will continue to grow!

It's a perfect entry level rifle! Lately everyone has been going to bigger calibers & I wanted to see if I liked shooting. 25 cal without spending thousands! And I think it was the way to go because now I have a low power gun & a high power gun ...my .177 is tuned to 19.3 ft.lbs & the .25 Avenger is at 45.5, both using Hades pellets. Thanks for the honest review! Take care!

Loved the review. Not the product but your honesty during all your review. This too.

This has been the best pcp review i have ever seen. Thank you for the solid info.

Thanks Matt for the most honest and in depth review of this gun that I've seen. Unfortunately I am unable to own one here in the UK as they are over the 12ft/lbs limit that we have here but it would be on my list of I could. So I'll stick to my trusty old HW97 springer. I love the fact that I don't need an air tank an that it is easily maintainable. Love your videos , keep them coming.

So glad I got my order in on the .25 when they were in stock 2 days ago. They wont be for long after your video on it !!! :)

Thank you so much for doing a good objective video on an entry level PCP. You're so right that a lot of people can't afford something high end but would like to get into PCP. Well done!

this review has great timing for me, just ordered one on Wednesday as i was sick of waiting over 2 months for my maverick to show up

Thank you for what I have viewed as an honest review. I have subscribed to your channel due to this review alone. I'm considering this PCP for purchase. I'm not able to get hands on and feel you have given me a great visual and expectation without actually having hands on........thank you! I feel you have given a candid honest review as you see it, not trying to make the manufacturer happy but integrity to your viewers. Thanks again for this review.

What a wonderful review! Honest, complete and YES there are plenty of reviews out there on $1400 PCP's.

Thanks for the review... Would love to see you do more of the lower end stuff. Keep up the great work.

You should do more of these budget reviews! Awesome ep man

Thank you for a most enjoyable and useful review for this gun. After your analysis I decided to get one for pest control and fun.

Well done review and description. No yelling, hyping, but reasonably educated me on the rifle.

The Avenger has a lot of high end features like the adjustable regulator. Your ability to get 60 shots from the charge was really fantastic ! The accuracy of the rifle seems to be very good too !

I appreciate this video man! I actually own two of the avengers one in .22 and the other in .25! I need to tinker with adjusting the reg pressure down a bit so I can improve my shot count and accuracy with both. They shoot a little hot out the box. Love the channel man!!! Looking forward to seeing more from you with this rifle!

Thank you for taking the time to explain in detail why high end is well worth the investment.

Thank you have made me pull the trigger and get into pcp with this rifle. Keep up the awesome videos. Gary in Texas

Thank you for reviewing some of the lower price airguns. There are a few that are worth a good review video.

Nice and honest review Matt. It's a great budget PCP, and your correct that it has surprised a lot of people. See you at the RMAC & PAC this year. Take care.

I bought myself and my son one because I heard a lot of good things about them. And I must say not bad for the price....now I just learned more about the slugs you should use....I appreciate the info 👌..keep up the good work 💪 👏🏼. Also about to buy the air venture compresser

Support your video. When I first came to South Africa, I saw your video, which made me own my first air gun, and then bought some more. I've been watching your video for three years. It's full of fun and learning a lot at the same time! It's a pity that our country doesn't allow you to hold guns. I hope you can come to South Africa more often and make such excellent videos all the time.

Thanks for the review and your hard work and I have learned alot from your videos , thanks again and God bless you and family

Very good review once again. Thanks for making it.

Its cool that your taking the time to step away from FX to help put this gun out there. I have the predecessors to this gun called the ATI Nova Vista Liberty/Alpha in .177 and in .22 and they have been flawless and incredibly accurate. yes...i have several other airguns that i have spent 2K$+ on yet they are not my favorites> I can take them, throw them on my quad bike and ride around and enjoy them like i can these guns. They are just s accurate out to 80 yards and on good days 100 yards. That said I'm happy to see you doing real world, average air gunner reviews again. Not everyone can afford 2K for an air gun and the support system required for them. Mad respect my friend. I really think it would be in all airgunners interests to keep our eye on Nova Vista brother, obviously they are airgun shooters. I can't wait to see what they come up with next truthfully. Looking forward to their version of a bull-pup. As always...we/I appreciate your blunt honesty and that's why we have the respect for you that we do. Honesty is real...people lie all the time to make a buck, you have maintained this attribute which keeps us glued to every word you say. Thank you for that, and God bless you for that. The truth always comes out in the end which is why so many have come undone. Always stay true my friend. Once you loose that attribute...you have lost everything.

Matt, great vid sir. I love mine so much i now have a 22 and a 25 av need a chrony to start tuning a bit for slugs. Cant wait!

Thanks for the unusual and extra-informative review. And little background music to hear thru. Fantastic.

I truly appreciate your honesty👍🏼

Very nice back to basics review. Thanks Matt

Great review. I have been interested in a PCP for pest control in an area around horses where the rifle I have arent suitable. Always thought they were too expensive, but this really sits in my realm.

Really good review Matt like you say not every one can buy a high end gun . All the best from uk

Great review ,its important someone to be honest like you.

Mate i am a high end pcp user, but i totally agree with you on this gun. What a great gun for the sport of pcp shooting. It will open the sport up to so many people. Well done mate

Thanks Matt, realistic review.

Spectacular review! I enjoyed it a lot.

Great review. Great price. I'm very happy with my CZ200 .177 for backyard shooting. The 10-Shot adapter makes it great. 13.5fps with JSB Hades.

Looked into these and did a lot of research because I thought it might be a good addition to my guns I use for pesting. The more I found out especially from people who already own one the more I decided to wait. There are just too many issues popping up and the less than great features you mentioned. The people who have one that works they work well but many are having leaks, loose stocks are other problems that shouldn't exist in a brand new gun. I might look at them again in a year or so and see if it is sorted out.

Such a high quality presentation.. thank you

My Avenger is in .22 and I love it. Regrettably my property doesn't allow me to reach out to 100 yds, I'm confined to no more than 75 yds. This thing is crazy accurate for me. After much experimenting with different pellets, mine really really likes the JSB HADES 15.89 gr.

Thank you. Was very excited when this gun came out and Ted B. was also. Have a Gauntlet as my starting point in pcp, then bought the FX Wildcat mk2. Can’t go back to entry level after shooting the mk2. If I was starting out, would choose the Avenger over the Gauntlet. Really considering the Maverick 22 for my next addition. Would love to see a full comparison of the Maverick to the Impact to help make my decision. Enjoy your videos.

Loved this review Matt, what you said is right this will get people interested in PCP.

Matt, thanks for reviewing this gun. Your opinion means a bunch!! I hope you'll consider doing a follow up after tuning the gun. Thank you

Excellent review, I would never have bought this gun using "you get what you pay for" but now I might, thank you.

I just recently subscribed, i love your channel and your approach. Plus your educational vids as learning tools are great.

Wow I just found this vid , don’t know how I missed. It was refreshing to see an Airgun god as yourself to make a video of a gun that is 1500 to 3000 dollars cheaper than some of the ones you own lol .I got in the pcp world with my nova freedom . I am just getting to want to do some valve work , change hammer spring , drill out high power side of power adjuster ,knob ,drill out air inlet on barrel and air outport hole to what goes to the barrel .the freedom has been in my hands for exactly 3 years so far , never had any problems with anything until a few months ago. I double load a heavy slug , ended up bending lever to probe connecting arm then breaking it in half and slightly bending the pellet probe. I just got the cousin to the nova liberty, vista and freedom and the famous air venturies avenger and aspen line which some claim a mind improvement to the ati novas . The novas have the better one piece valve block , heart of the rifle . The upgrade to both of these is the newest addition , the Umarex Origin !!!! It has the heart , the valve body of the AV avenger type , the cheaper made , I think not as durable and long lasting of the novas . While taking both rifles apart I noticed the barrel input and output air holes on the Origin is slightly drill a little bigger. This accounts for the 100 FPS gain over the two other models. The hammer spring seems much harder than my 3 yr old nova’s also. The thing I love about most is the AirTunes constant pressure in the origin ,gives better performance of shots and is easier to pump with the included Umarex air pump all at 299 plus tax !!! The accuracy from 0 to 100 yards is really amazing I also like fun trick shots from 1 to 150 yards and am trying to really learn the 200 plus yard style of shooting . The KZfaq channel “Air Velocity Sports “ shows how to modify for power , much more power , and build wooden stocks for them . He also talks about and uses parts from dark charisma “ DUY” which is awesome I have read for his upgrades ! I want to thank you Airgod for showing us your human side of us entry level pcp shooters lol ….you are truly a master at what you do brother !!! I am glad to be a long time subscriber of yours , GOD bless you and your channel !!!!

Amazing honest review ❤️❤️

I've just ordered the Air Venturi .25 bullpup and can't wait to shoot it.

Thank you mate for sharing the INTEL

A step down into reviewing a budget PCP is a huge thumbs up!! I would absolutely love to see you do a honest review on the umarex gauntlet 2.

Thanks Mate. Great review.

Nice job! Good yo see this content 😁

Matt, Thank you for taking the time to go through this in a very rational and realistic manner. I did purchase an Avenger in .22 and have never looked back. Using mostly Hades for rats on a dairy farm which it does famously with. The slug end of things for me is yet to come as I have difficulty changing a good thing.....anyway I now have yet another credible opinion that says go for it! My best to you sir.

THANK YOU ! I enjoyed the video.

Great job representing us common folks... down to the crappy cardboard box targets... Keeping it real as always!

I real like my Avengers .22 and .25. Thanks for your input.

Very useful video, Matt....thank you.

Excellent presentation .

I love mine, gave it a paint job, been shooting it out to 133 yards, it's nice. Appreciate the vid on the budget gun.

Matt, you were my second love (after Kenny...rip) when I discovered airguns in 2017. Back then you were shooting apples and eggs out the back of your truck in a field next to a stream and I was hooked! Alas you quickly became sophisticated and while I was buying $200 break barrels and $400 pcp's you were moving into $2000 & $3000 airguns. I wasn't and had to move onto SG, AEAC and some of the other 'common man' suitors :) While I still watch your very informative mil/moa instructions, your AOA bench rest reports, and other common info videos. I just couldn't relate to the fx guns, smooth twist, 500/700m barrel world. I wish I would of just saved up for an fx seven airguns ago but I am now looking forward to ordering the Avenger. This will allow me (my way too many hobbies) grandkids, fishing, golfing all in addition to airgunning. Really appreciate the trip back to the old Matt...thanks

I learned so much from watching this video thank you.

Great review..i love watching your videos.

All the videos I've seen on you tube of this rifle's accuracy and power has been unbelievable....in fact tiny little groups out to 75yds....not bad for a budget rifle!

Greetings from England , first can i say , whot wonderful weather your having . Suntan time . boy whot a great review , full of imformation . whot a great rifle this is , a good all rounder for the price . thank you for your work ... take care .... Simon from York England

what amazing timing for this video. as an avid marksman living in the united states, insane ammo prices have peaked my interest in PCPs more than ever

It's been 8 months since I last wrote here I absolutely love the .25 Air Venturi bullpup. I've since bought an AEA 9mm pro along with the .30 FX Dreamline bullpup I love them all and am not sorry I spent all that money on these guns, I just wished I knew about PCP more before I bought my 5 break barrels.

Hi Matt. Im new to the Pcp world. Almost 2 months ago i bought my first pcp. I just love your channels and appreciate all the amazing information you share with us. Let the "lood loop"

thank U!! great reflexion about that rifle. regards

Thanks for real world review.

Great review, mate.

Steve from AEAC did a much more thorough review and got much better results with pellets and slugs.

Fairly new to air, had an American Classic .177 I found in a trash can and fixed. Secondly, bought a 2240XL pistol that is basically useless without sights (I put a laser on it) and you needed steel fingers to pull that trigger! I'm a pack rat, so I dug in my spring collection, found a lighter one that fit and hanged if it ain't nearly a hair trigger now! Sounds like the Avenger could use that mod too, but you're shooting quite well! Recently bought a Diana Stormrider rifle for my entry level and a laser plus 4x9-40 scope and I put the toys away!

I just bougght a Daystate Revere as an upgrade from an Umarex Gauntlet that I extensively modified. That being said I am going to get me an Avenger as a dedicated 40 foot pound slug gun. They now sell it with a wood stock and I think that will be a nice improvement.

Excellent Mat

Matt- I used to hand pump my guns. The Hatsan at 44 had a similar size air res, 35 strokes on the pump would take it from off the reg to full in about a minute. BTW it was just as accurate as my Cricket.

Success is always for chanel Mrs. Bang, I from indonesia

I trust Matt's reviews over most airgun channels. The reason being is because Matt uses them how most of us would use these air rifles for hunting and pest control not just tacking paper. I want an Avenger so I can tinker with it not ruining one of my expensive guns.

Matt, thank you for doing a review on the Avenger. It is rare that someone of your stature in any realm, would do a review for those who could not afford high end products. that being said I do enjoy shooting my Avenger .22. The Donny FL barrel adapter and moderator are a wonderful addition to this rifle. I find the Neilson Specialty Ammo Slug 23gr .217 shoot especially well in my barrel. I would love to try the Patriot's but not yet available in the states. no this gun is not of the same quality of my Impact mk2, but my 15 year old Daughter shoots my Avenger with near the same groups as me and my Impact at 50 yards! so it is a great family friendly shooter! I am very pleased with all of what this gun offers at such a ridiculously low price point. great review, thank you Matt.

I should add that since making this video, I have learned that the breech is not plastic, but rather metal coated in plastic. Why anyone would coat something in plastic, I don’t know🤔 But good to know that it is solid underneath. Same thing goes for the scope rail, but I would still recommend using picatinny instead of dovetail.

Got one in 25 caliber and love it. Paid US $ 250 18 months ago in Argentina.

Thank You for this Review

Hi Matt nice review. I have one to in .22. Did some work on it. For the price I think its a nice gun.

I am thinking of getting this rifles , good buy for the money !

Thanks great review I really want to acquire this air rifle as my first pcp and have researched all the pros and cons so atm the avenger wood stock in the regular platform is great but I feel the "Nova Vista Behemoth" is my first choice. What nobody has done yet is a complete tear down of the rifle to see what would be possible in terms of aftermarket plenum etc stocks theres a stabiliser for the rear end of the barrel as well as an O ring delete valve kit to stop air leaking past the probe as the regular O rings wear out faster and leak "apparently" because of wear and tear and of course the donny fl adapter is a must have. Those mods should give more consistent shot count FPS and stop clipping theres an aftermarket magazine too that is if a better quality than the stock issue. Thanks again please do a tear down video maybe looking at the available aftermarket mods to make the "Gun" more competitive which it is already but from what I have seen all the mods really help besides cleaning/polishing the barrel choice of pellet or slug so I would want to be able to do pest control mostly pigeons at a max of approx 50 - 100 yds or 50m's to a 100m's. Well hope that makes sense!! Avenger/Behemoth

I'm only 4 minutes in and already I love your review. When you said, "Let's clear the air first ..." and went on to explain this is not an FX, that was the honesty we love and need to hear. I was also thinking drill a hole and fill it with foam and you said it ! 16:25 your truck setup is BADASS ! That Air Club is heavenly ! 60 reg shots !

I still love to shoot my springers.... I have the Impact MK2 and really enjoy shooting it. Quite accurate....

Great video. It nice to see people reviewing and having some positives about entry level pcp's. People shouldn't be sold on the idea that you must spend big dollars to have an enjoyable experience. Don't get me wrong as I believe that you should purchase the best equipment you can afford without going broke in the process! I've started with the Hatsans, Krals and Avenger. They have been fun and a great learning experience. I did just purchase my first FX Dream pup in 22 and is quite a bit more refined than my previous rifles but still have and love my more affordable ones. With that all out of the way, I am experiencing poi shift with my avenger. Its a very accurate rifle and for no apparent reason it will shift the poi as much as a few inches at times. Not just one shot, it will start grouping at a different spot. I have the Donny adapter, checked all the screws and even swapped scopes but it always find myself chasing it around. Any ideas??? Again great video and very informative...

Bravo!!!, good explanation!!
