You're right there are lots of guys and ladies in the industry who do a great job... However it's your videos that drew me back into airgunning. Keep up the good work.
Would love to see more of the pump platforms like FX's Indy. Not sure why this hasn't cought on more in the air rifle world. It's such a hindrance in the field to have to constantly refill and carry around an air supply. Looking forward to seeing your review.
I have the Nova freedom version and it is Awesome!!! It's powerful and accurate. I tested it against my .22 Gamo Swarm on a old washer. The Swarm takes 2 to 3 shots to penetrate but the freedom takes 1😊. I hope you review this gun for all the people who wanted the FX Indy like myself but couldn't bring themselves to invest $1,500 (like myself).
While doing research on this air gun, I found the "Seneca Aspen PCP Air Rifle, Multi-Pump PCP" in 0.177" (4.5mm) , 0.22" (5.5mm), & 0.25" (6.35mm). The 25 is pre order, that is the one I desire. Can you compare these two identical air guns?
Sounds interesting. Provided there are multiple shots. I'm a springer guy, no way am I doling out for air tanks etc. Yet the 392 clacking scares away game, for just one shot. So this looks promising.
In my country we call this pcp/pump combo, the "Gejluk" Rifle, has been around for decades, starts around 100-200 USD. lots of videos on them on RUclips
How does moisture affect this gun since there is no mechanism to remove water from humid air. Hand pumps and generators remove the moisture to pump in dry air, but this will pump in humid air into the gun. What will that do to the gun over time?
Wow this has me excited! Really looking forward to seeing your review. I like the idea of the PCP performance but I have been put off by the extra cost to fill them. So I have been using the Weihrauch HW95 .22. This sounds like a great gun that can be taken out in the field with no air supply worries.
already dragging a lot more than that around camping. also I don't know many people who need 20 plus shots hunting. ur not wrong its nice but also not necessary, mas well use a break barrel.
I don't use my air rifles hunting. Just shooting targets and I can go through a small tin, 100-200 pellets a day. This is slow shooting, over hours, not running through them in short order.
I have the .25 cal, the best SHTF gun, a little on the heavy side but with a bipod, and I had to mount on on the pump handle, beyond accurate, great side lever, excellent trigger, the scope is good enough although I had a better one so I upgraded it, put a Sumo DonnyFL moderator and budda boom an excellent gun...totally self contained with it's owm pump or can be filled by tank, or extetrnal hand pump, unregulated, 5 shots, 5 pumps keeps it regulated...you will not starve with this gun in a SHTF situation...as long as there is game to hunt.
I've got this barnett crossbow with a trigger tech trigger in it and I'm no expert but I'm pretty Freakin good and this is this best trigger I've ever pulled. I think it would be a perfect application for air rifles.
Most problems with the pump have resulted in not enough lubrication. Even the owners manual doesn't have the owner putting enough oil in it. Just like an ar15...this needs to be heavily lubed before shooting.
Any plans on reviewing the good old sumatra 2500 in the .25 caliber? Looks like it would be a great air rifle on an average hunter’s budget but there aren’t enough reliable videos out there to prove it.
Thanks Ted! Looking forward to your shooting this rifle! To me, I say, maybe! I plink and shoot paper targets, steel targets and occasional squirrel! Parker County Texas
Ted, Off topic question. I have a 1969ish Sheridan, Blue Streak 5mm pump. Where can I send it for repair? It just has not been used since the 90’s. Seals are prolly worn/dried up. Love your starling, pigeon and house sparrow vids. My guess is I was saving swallows from starlings with it before u were born? I slayed many a starling, sparrow, rat, squirrel, chipmunk, groundhog, pigeon, raccoon and muskrat in my day with it. I used to carry on my trap line in the late 60’s thru the mid 70’s. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Enjoyed watching and applaud your skills on the American Airgunner Challenge!! Bill
These are great guns for the month they endure. I like mine boucou, but, tho I babied it, two had to be returned because of the pump malfunctioning, and the present one became weak in velocity a few weeks after the warranty was over. If you want to become a super air gunsmith in one year, a Seneca Aspen is highly recommended.
Reports on the rifle are good, I have one in .22 cal. , and have heard from others that the .177 cal. is just as good if not better. Waiting to see what Ted can make it do :)
I was just curious, is this rifle shrouded for quiet pest removal? I'm really interested in getting one because not carrying a pump or fill tank around would be great.
it's also called the Seneca Aspen? it's chinese made right? I guess now manufacturers just rebrand Chinese made guns as their own to cut costs. It's a good air rifle. I'll add yo my collection for sure if it ever reaches my country.
Any guns that free the shooter from having to use an auxiliary power source, such as pump-up guns or break barrels, have an advantage. I wonder how long Nova-Vista has been around. Hope they do better than FX, as I've read that the Indy leaks air after being pumped up. Seems like a nice gun on the surface, looking forward to ur review.
Ted what are your thoughts on using hydrogen or nitrogen in a pcp instead of compressed air. It seems like there are some videos out there claiming higher velocities, more shot count and more power if one uses these gases. Im sure if it was the real deal, you would be using these gases right?
I got my Nova Freedom .22 cal a few weeks ago, and love it! I just wish that I could have afforded to buy a small compressor to refill small tanks to charge it. Pumping is great, but, it also gets old fast when out target shooting all day long. I'm a welder, and have two giant tanks of 100% pure Argon sitting full in my shop - for TIG welding.. I was also curious if I could just snag some adapters / fittings, and use the Argon instead. Having an account with AigGas, it's easy to just swap out tanks from empty to full, and my buddy up the street is our local station, so if doable, and beneficial, that'd be great!
Helium not hydrogen I think. Hydrogen could explode. . The smaller the atom, the faster the gas... so He would be the best non explosive. Nitrogen would not be a lot faster than regular air because regular air is mostly nitrogen anyway.
At that price im already 90% sold always wanted an indie but the price tag and lack of updated revision kinda put me off .... hoping to see one with the new barrel and maybe the action of the wild cat ...?...
Is it quiet? I live where I can just get and shoot very accurate 22lr rifles for cheap but getting a suppressor would be expensive... Casting 22 bullets for shooting out of a pump gun would be interesting...
Shawn Weaver I think he had quite some stuff on his plate recently...his (broken)hand and of course the struggle with youtubue for the existance of his channels. Just guessing
The rifle arrived today and I dialed in the scope just a couple hours ago ruclips.net/user/postUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL . I haven’t shot with a scope in probably 25 years. The X on the left was my target. (the shot almost in the bullseye on the right X was my father in laws first shot after I made adjustments) The two shots circled are my first 2 shots. Then I brought it down - shot once. Then brought it over to the left. From there zeroed it in to dead center. This all was from 25 yards out. Follow instructions carefully when mounting the scope. So far I'm very happy with the purchase.
Ted, did you ever get one of these to test? Its been awhile since you shot this vid so I think with your ADHD, you have already moved on to Slugs, Scopes, yada yada yada…
Crap. I just ordered the Gauntlet. Well not crap really but more like "dang". I was talking about hand pump pop rifles with a friend and didn't hear of this until four minutes ago. Just another one to wish list is all.
What I meant in saying "wow" was it's surprisingly cheap for what it is compared to other self pumpers like say the Independence. Judging by the other comments here, I am not alone on this sentiment. Now with that cleared, I never knew Ted's channel was exclusive to high end viewers like yourself. Even if it was, you don't have to be such a sanctimonious douche about it.
First impressions , it looks good. But $400 US, Hmm by the time it gets to the UK and has been restricted for our laws i bet its £700+. But what i really want is a breakdown price list for the Dreamline.
Nova should put together a Prepper Package. Something that you can pump in the field and store enough air to empty a full mag what is not to like. Can't wait to see how it performs.
i got all excited when i saw this, but then i went to link and read the specs 1000fps max, same rating as a Hatsan gas spring break barrel 'viper'? no super PCP power here, maybe its more reliable ? maybe not ?
Ted likes his air guns in the 800-950 fps range because when they shoot too fast the pellet destabilizes and significantly loses accuracy past 50 yards.
deaczorz. Sarcasm does work on the internet. Ha! John Higgins caught you off guard with his sarcasm. For future reference (not "refrence ". Ha)up your goals to pay attention. Just so ya know
I bought one from MidwayUSA. They showed it with a scope for $299. When I got it it came with no scope or open sights. Don’t fall for MidwayUSA, BAIT AND SWITCH. This gun came with NO free shipping. What rip off !
You're right there are lots of guys and ladies in the industry who do a great job...
However it's your videos that drew me back into airgunning.
Keep up the good work.
So it's like a multi pump pneumatic/PCP hybrid?
Exactly.
Wicked looking rifle!! Can’t wait, love the idea of an onboard pump, great price. Thanks for the inside look Ted!
I have one & love it! It is my truck gun & have mounted a Bug Blaster scope on it. I'll also soon be shooting the JSB Hades pellets in .22 out of it
Would love to see more of the pump platforms like FX's Indy. Not sure why this hasn't cought on more in the air rifle world. It's such a hindrance in the field to have to constantly refill and carry around an air supply. Looking forward to seeing your review.
If hunting, all that pumping racket is a game spooker.
@@johnnybarbar7435 ,the gun provides 10 flat, accurate shots per 40 previous pumps. It's not a pump gun, but a self-contained PCP.
Nice to see u are alive ted
I have the Nova freedom version and it is Awesome!!! It's powerful and accurate. I tested it against my .22 Gamo Swarm on a old washer. The Swarm takes 2 to 3 shots to penetrate but the freedom takes 1😊.

Have links?
@@senatorjosephmccarthy2720 ruclips.net/video/4QsSiU8rUm4/видео.html
Nice to see you back. Why aren't you doing many videos lately
How does moisture affect this gun since there is no mechanism to remove water from humid air. Hand pumps and generators remove the moisture to pump in dry air, but this will pump in humid air into the gun. What will that do to the gun over time?
Ted please give us more info on this new rifle. We count on your opinions before we spend our hard earned money.
Wow this has me excited! Really looking forward to seeing your review. I like the idea of the PCP performance but I have been put off by the extra cost to fill them. So I have been using the Weihrauch HW95 .22. This sounds like a great gun that can be taken out in the field with no air supply worries.
pneumatic pumps have started being added into packages on a number of pcp air rifles now.
Myname IsBob True, but you still have to drag it along wherever you go. This seems like a very mobile system for camping trips as an example
already dragging a lot more than that around camping. also I don't know many people who need 20 plus shots hunting. ur not wrong its nice but also not necessary, mas well use a break barrel.

please put the review, this is really exciting to see.
Very good... I'm looking forward to seeing the review. William C.
I hope you do the review soon for this P2 PCP looking forward to it
It's not doing so well on the Amazon reviews, I'll pass on this one.
I have the .25 cal, the best SHTF gun, a little on the heavy side but with a bipod, and I had to mount on on the pump handle, beyond accurate, great side lever, excellent trigger, the scope is good enough although I had a better one so I upgraded it, put a Sumo DonnyFL moderator and budda boom an excellent gun...totally self contained with it's owm pump or can be filled by tank, or extetrnal hand pump, unregulated, 5 shots, 5 pumps keeps it regulated...you will not starve with this gun in a SHTF situation...as long as there is game to hunt.
this is a configuration i have bin trying to keep an eye out for a while now . and for the price as well . look forward to seeing your review of it .
When are you going to do a shooting video on the .25?
Thanks i will put on my xmas list.
I've got this barnett crossbow with a trigger tech trigger in it and I'm no expert but I'm pretty Freakin good and this is this best trigger I've ever pulled. I think it would be a perfect application for air rifles.
Awesome airguns,us lives will best when have this guns..
Stoked 🤣
Most problems with the pump have resulted in not enough lubrication. Even the owners manual doesn't have the owner putting enough oil in it. Just like an ar15...this needs to be heavily lubed before shooting.
yes, plenty silicone oil, pump slow
Any plans on reviewing the good old sumatra 2500 in the .25 caliber? Looks like it would be a great air rifle on an average hunter’s budget but there aren’t enough reliable videos out there to prove it.
Any update on this? I reached out to the contact on the website about the price/getting my hands on one in the U.S. and never heard back.
Thanks Ted! Looking forward to your shooting this rifle! To me, I say, maybe! I plink and shoot paper targets, steel targets and occasional squirrel! Parker County Texas
Ted,
Off topic question.
I have a 1969ish Sheridan, Blue Streak 5mm pump. Where can I send it for repair? It just has not been used since the 90’s. Seals are prolly worn/dried up.
Love your starling, pigeon and house sparrow vids. My guess is I was saving swallows from starlings with it before u were born? I slayed many a starling, sparrow, rat, squirrel, chipmunk, groundhog, pigeon, raccoon and muskrat in my day with it. I used to carry on my trap line in the late 60’s thru the mid 70’s. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Enjoyed watching and applaud your skills on the American Airgunner Challenge!!
Bill
It's nice to see you again Tedd love your videos
When is the review of the WarCat coming?
When is the full review and testing bud?
So what ever happened with this?
These are great guns for the month they endure. I like mine boucou, but, tho I babied it, two had to be returned because of the pump malfunctioning, and the present one became weak in velocity a few weeks after the warranty was over. If you want to become a super air gunsmith in one year, a Seneca Aspen is highly recommended.
Sadly, the same problem - soon occurrence of pump malfunctioning - plaques Seneca's Aspen too, according to what I found on Internet...
Reports on the rifle are good, I have one in .22 cal. , and have heard from others that the .177 cal. is just as good if not better.
Waiting to see what Ted can make it do :)
I was just curious, is this rifle shrouded for quiet pest removal? I'm really interested in getting one because not carrying a pump or fill tank around would be great.
Hello from the UK please could you do more cooking episodes thanks
When is the review coming out?
it's also called the Seneca Aspen? it's chinese made right? I guess now manufacturers just rebrand Chinese made guns as their own to cut costs. It's a good air rifle. I'll add yo my collection for sure if it ever reaches my country.
That looks pretty damn sweet for a pump gun👍
Ted does a review of this air rifle, please.
For that kind of money id buy a gauntlet and a good scope !
Any guns that free the shooter from having to use an auxiliary power source, such as pump-up guns or break barrels, have an advantage. I wonder how long Nova-Vista has been around. Hope they do better than FX, as I've read that the Indy leaks air after being pumped up. Seems like a nice gun on the surface, looking forward to ur review.
Be interested to see your review. Able to do a side by side with the indy?
How to review it,Ted ???
Tony from ARP on Vimeo has one in hand and is two videos into doing a full breakdown.
Awesome!! Such a weird gun.
ya interesting rifle, hope it makes some nice groups. good to see you again .
Waiting on the review for the guntlet and hope to see a review on this one too i hope u do hunting videos with both guns yhank u
Really like your video. No bull.... like others
Great gun for excellent price

does anyone knows if they're going to produce a .25 cal version ?

Made in?????
I’m still waiting for the review on the Gauntlet!??

- Me Three.
And I
Same here. I'm guessing he wasn't impressed if it didn't make him want to grab a camera and show it off.
Shawn Weaver I think he had quite some stuff on his plate recently...his (broken)hand and of course the struggle with youtubue for the existance of his channels. Just guessing
Cool looking gun. You are awesome Ted.
Ted, what about barrel? Is is ST or ST-X one?
You should always have iron sights.
Nice blog sir

Would be good to leave at the rice paddy in the Philippines. Rat and birds, maybe a cobra ?
like the cross man only on steroids I bet it doesn't hook left or right like the one that shoots bb's
Thanks Ted nice gun
waiting for the Gauntlet review .
Been 8 months. Where is the review?
What ever happened to this?!?!
FPS ?

I got mine for $295 delivered. I got the .22 Nova Freedom.

dang it, man, I'll feel bad for you guys if it gets to that point.
Very interested in this gun. That would be the cheapest way into PCP's.

a refurbed crosman wildfire and an ebay handpump is the cheapest way into PCPs.. ( 160 total ) (-'
This Aspen.
June 2020. I never saw a review of this and the website is out of business.
Sign me up!!
How about buying this gun in the UK with all our Nanny State Rules! Sandy Mackie
think I missed the video of you reviewing this.
THE pellet SPEED
The rifle power and hammer spring are both adjustable; 900+ fps in .22 doable.
Nothing like a bit of exercise when shooting..
Im still waiting on the review of the warcat!
Bro the hunting videos were life where they at tho
When? Where, Brand? I want to know more! Semper Fi!
check Pyramid Air, $299 Seneca Aspen
The gun stock is too big, looks heavy, seems build quality is too bad
I might have to get one of these, if it gets your approval. Take it to the Philippines. I need a rat rifle there.
Nova should put together a Prepper Package. Something that you can pump in the field and store enough air to empty a full mag what is not to like. Can't wait to see how it performs.
wow price is good cant wait for a review
This could be great if it''s consistent, even for half a dozen shots.
i got all excited when i saw this, but then i went to link and read the specs
