Try various pellets and pressures - Final Update 11/3/2021: Wanted to give one final update after a few months. After putting around 1200 rounds through this rifle, I still maintain the 5+ star rating. I attached a picture of a dime-sized group I shot just today 4 months after I got this rifle. The only adjustments to the scope have been 1-2 clicks here and there to correct for some very minor drift which is to be expected. All I've really done is put 2 drops of PWS silicone chamber oil in the pump port every 600 shots or so and I'll put a little gun oil on the bolt. Other than that it is pretty maintenance free. Use the right ammo and pressure and you won't be disappointed. UPDATE 7/15/2021: I would give this air rifle 6 stars if I could. I've put several hundred rounds through it now and it is very consistent and accurate. I have not had to adjust my scope once I dialed in the zero at 20 yds. I come from a firearms background and recently got back into air rifles, and where accuracy is concerned, the ammo matters just as much (sometimes more) than the rifle. For those that have grouping problems, try different pellets and pressure levels. TLDR: - This rifle groups very well. I've attached grouping shots with ranges, pellet brand/weights, and pressure levels - Light pellets seem to like lower pressure, ~1900-2000 PSI. I got the H&N 7.25 gr Terminators to group well at those pressures. - Heavier pellets do well at higher pressure, ~2500 PSI. - Faster is not necessarily better. While the rifle can go up to 3000 PSI, I have read that the grouping might not be as consistent at those higher pressures. - Use pellets that fit snugly in the chamber so that the skirts engage the rifling well. I had some cheaper pellets that were somewhat loose fitting and they wouldn't group consistently at any pressure. Details: I initially ran a test of several different pellets at 20 yds and 2500 PSI and found that the lighter 7.25 gr pellets would not group well. I then lowered the pressure to 2000 PSI for the lighter pellets and they started grouping pretty nicely. I then tried Beeman Crow Magnum 9gr and H&N 9.57 gr pellets at 2500 PSI and you can see the results in the 2nd photo. I have had good results with H&N pellets so far and will stick with those. ------------------------ I am new to PCP rifles and previously shot a spring piston air rifle. After shooting this, I am going to give away my spring piston rifle because the Armada beats it in every way possible. Attached is a 5 shot group at ~12 yds with the rifle pumped up to 2500 PSI. I shot those using the included bipod. All 5 are within the outline of a dime. I have never been able to get that kind of consistency with my spring piston rifle. So far, after shooting several different times, the point of impact has not changed substantially so it is pretty consistent from what I can tell so far. The trigger is nice. Two stage with a 1.5 lb second stage. Very easy to shoot, no recoil at all. On top of that, it is quiet. The sound of the pellet hitting the back of my steel bullet trap is louder than the report of the rifle, by a lot. When I fired my spring piston rifle, I could barely hear the pellet hit the trap over the SPRIONG of the rifle spring. Some have mentioned that the rifle is heavy, but I guess it's all relative. I'm used to carrying a .308 so to me, the Armada actually feels light by comparison even with the scope and bipod. I'd say it is about 8.5 pounds if you take the bipod off. If you have the bipod on, you're most likely shooting off a bench or other support and the weight doesn't really matter. The scope is reasonably good. It is 2nd FP, but is totally fine for backyard shooting. It has a side focus/parallax adjustment knob, elevation and windage knobs with distinct clicks, 4-16x mag and keeps its zero as far as I can tell so far after shooting it for a week. For the range that I'm shooting (~20 yds), I just keep it at 8x. I like that the grip and buttstock are milspec. I happen to have an extra AR-15 grip and Magpul buttstock and put those on for better comfort. That said, the included buttstock isn't horrible. I shot the attached 5 shot group with the included buttstock before I switched it out. Also, the handguard is MLOK compliant so if you want to attach any rails or other accessories, that is also easy to do. This rifle is a bit more expensive, but to me was totally worth it and is a good value. With the current prices of ammo, this gives me an opportunity to target shoot for cheap and I don't even have to drive to the range. I just shoot out my back window into my target holder/bullet trap and no one even knows. :-D Review: No More Rats 😎🀘🏾 - I LOVE this thing. Im a firearms enthusiast and have some amazing rifles and pistols (300 blk, 12 gauge, 5.56, 9mm). I raise chickens and rats started living under the coops and running around my backyard at night. I don’t do poison, and they stopped getting caught by the live traps. So I bought the Benjamin Armada in .177, an inexpensive pcp rifle compressor with auto shutoff, H&N baracuda hunter extreme pellets, and an infrared night vision scope. This thing is ridiculously accurate. 10 round, dime sized groupings at 60 feet. Every night Id take out 2-3 rats till they were all gone. Now I just shoot targets on a pellet trap for fun. But if the rats come back, Im ready… ## Features - PCP-POWERED .177-CALIBER AIR GUN – Great for target shooting and medium-sized game hunting - REVERSIBLE BOLT-ACTION – For right and left-handed sportsmen - MODULAR DESIGN WITH RIFLED BARREL – Quiet and versatile with on-board air pressure gauge - 10-ROUND ROTARY CLIP MAGAZINE – Multi-shot capable, delivers speeds up to 1100 fps - 4-16X50 mm RIFLESCOPE - With a multi-coated lens for accuracy downrange - MACHINED RECEIVER AND 5-INCH PICATINNY RAIL – Add your favorite accessories - BIPOD - BENJAMIN - A True Original ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00WNH1S7M | | Air Gun Power Type | PCP | | Barrel Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Best Sellers Rank | #470,549 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #232 in Air Rifles | | Brand | Benjamin | | Brand Name | Benjamin | | Caliber | 0.18 | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 out of 5 stars 35 Reviews | | Frame Material Type | Metal | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00028478146457 | | Included Components | gun^manual^magazine | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 46"L x 4"W x 10"H | | Item Type Name | Benjamin Armada BTAP17SX PCP-Powered Multi-Shot Bolt Action .177- Caliber Pellet Hunting And Target Air Rifle Kit | | Item Weight | 12.3 pounds | | Manufacturer | Crosman Corporation | | Manufacturer Part Number | BTAP17SX | | Model Name | Benjamin Armada BTAP17SX PCP-Powered Multi-Shot Bolt Action .177- Caliber Pellet Hunting And Target Air Rifle Kit | | Model Number | BTAP17SX | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 46"L x 4"W x 10"H | | Rounds | 8 | | UPC | 028478146457 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | Limited 5 Year Warranty | ## Product Details - **Air Gun Power Type:** PCP - **Barrel Material Type:** Alloy Steel - **Brand:** Benjamin - **Caliber:** 0.177 - **Color:** Black - **Frame Material:** Metal - **Item Weight:** 12.3 Pounds - **Product Dimensions:** 46"L x 4"W x 10"H - **Rounds:** 8 - **UPC:** 028478146457 ## Images ![BenjaminBenjamin Armada - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61OY0+ZhmXL.jpg) ![BenjaminBenjamin Armada - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/619loIEYI2L.jpg) ![BenjaminBenjamin Armada - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ZT0uW-BEL.jpg) ![BenjaminBenjamin Armada - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61YURd8EeHL.jpg) ![BenjaminBenjamin Armada - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QLi7XZD3L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: would you say that the gun is good for hunting** A: I’d say more like 50 to 75. **Q: Does this rifle ship with the shown scope and bipod?** A: the rifle does ship as shown **Q: Does anyone try to put on a standard AR15 stock on this air rifle?** A: I installed a Magpul MOE SL Carbine Stock (milspec) on my Armada. It fits much nicer than the factory stock and does not rattle at all, very solid. I also installed a Magpul MOE-K2 Grip which is a bit more upright than the factory grip and is more comfortable with the short length of pull of these rifles due to the short stock. Make sure you get the milspec stock, not the commercial stock. **Q: The bolt on my Armada requires hard pull to get back, and when it is the bolt pertrudes slightly in the gap, is that normal or is mine defective?** A: It's normal with the newer bolts, they are slightly longer. You have to hold the bolt back to get the magazine out ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Accurate, Consistent and Quiet.
