Box to Bench with the New AirVenturi AvengeX Tactical Tube PCP Air Powered Pellet Rifle - .22 cal

- Congratulations in advance to @pyramydair I know there is a lot of anticipation for the release of this rifle based on how many folks watched our SHOT Show interview of Tyler Patner on the AvengeX, and I think you've delivered on the promises.
I think the new AvengeX, or Avenge-X, or whatever it's technical name is, well, it's going to be a hit. This airgun is everything the Avenger was, and more. A bunch more.
In this video PJ takes us from the Box to the Bench, showing you what you can expect from the latest offering from AirVenturi. You'll get trigger pull weight, a features overview, 32 and 50 yard accuracy without tuning, velocity without tuning and an overview of the features of this Tactical-Tube version of the .22 cal pellet rifle. I mention "without tuning" because just about everything that you'd want to adjust on this airgun can be adjusted...but a Box to Bench video is meant to show you what to expect on Day 1, and that's what this video is.
For those who are wondering, this video was filmed on a private range and all reasonable and necessary safety precautions were taken. The rifle depicted is a pellet gun, shooting .22 caliber pellets powered by compressed air. It is not a firearm.
Mounted on the airgun is an @Element Helix 6-24x50 SFP riflescope with @Leapers_Inc QD rings, and bipod duties were handled by a Scandanavian Airguns bipod. The pellets used were 18.13 grain JSB's from Predator International.
Best PCP value for money hands down.These rifles can hold their own against any brand regardless of price.I own multiple FX,Daystates and other top brands.
Another goodun PJ. Really enjoyed it. Very informative and a pleasure to watch. Keepem comin bud.
Thank you!
Just ordered an Avenge X .22 cal. I'm new to PCP air rifles but grew up with BB guns and spring piston air rifles. I had my heart set on a FX Maverick but it was just more than I could spend (maybe a good thing after reading some of the comments). Worth mentioning is a PCP has a higher initial cost because you need an air source of some kind. After much debate I'm going to use an air tank rather than an air pump. That cost as much as the rifle so I'm saving up for that now. Geez
@@ebikes2xs159 if you have ready access to a fill source the tank is a good way to go. I always recommend that people sort out the air source first when joining the PCP family.
You know I watch your videos all the time I live them because you tell it like it is
Thank you for watching!
Nice PJ. I have had a Tatsu on my Avenger 25 cal bullpup since i purchased 2 years ago. Hardly anyone uses it in youtube videos but it truly sounds like your impression, pfft. I don't think it gets enough respect! Lol. Great review on this fine rifle. Have an awesome weekend!
You too. The Tatsu is my go-to in anything .22 cal. Love that little guy!
Nice , one gun for everything . Airforce did this back in the day . Still have mine in all calibers . No magazines , not a problem . Sometimes magazines can distort the pellets making them inaccurate . Hatsan did this to although barrel assemblies were twice the price of the AvengeX barrels. Always enjoy your reviews .
Thanks. A multi caliber single shot tray would be pretty cool.
Yep I can see that ? About the only thing not included ? Ball dropped !!! 🙃🤣🤣🤣🤔.@@WiscAirGunners
Would be great if they made a dedicated slug gun with rifle twist rates optimized for slugs.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you get your wish.
Excellent review.👍
Thanks!
I noticed that the barrel thread protector was sitting on the bench while you shot. Did you have a moderator on the gun? I'm wondering if you need the thread protector to stabilize the barrel liner when shooting... just a thought. Thanks for the review. I'm considering an avenge x myself. Can't afford an FX.
The thread protector was off for a moderator. I’ve used a couple different ones and today have a converted QD FatBoy for testing with the Saber Tactical Chassis.
I'm trying to figure out if the avenge x scope rail is 20moa? Do you know the answer?
@@darrick1395 it does not have a 20 MOA rail.
You really need to think twice about spending the money on a FX that will have quality control issues almost guaranteed. You're definitely better off with the avenger and have plenty of money left over.
Lol why does everyone hate on the fx? I think I'm buying a panthera hunter or avenger
@@goldentrucker7921
What your hearing is the truth. I just bought an FX King which is an Panthera in a GRS Stock. Guess what, it has issues. I failed to listen to other and here you go. It may be like playing the lottery, you may get lucky. I won't be buying another.
@wsmc8275 just a little air leak? I had tons of high end paintball markers. $1000 to $2000 a piece. Sometimes you need to replace an o ring here and there. I'm looking at the avenge X, I'm trying to find a bull pup 25 cal. Around $500 to $2k max. 25 yards to 80 yards. Any ideas?
I am needing sponsor for an avenge x! I am young stud looking to do reviews for venturi!
For the price of an FX I can see expecting nothing but perfection out of the box but I also know there are a ton of moving parts and I wouldn't be too concerned with having to replace an o ring or something simple. Shouldn't have to but things happen. I have always wanted an impact but I can't justify 2k on an air rifle.
Good Review. Woodstock and Tactical..... Which one is more stable in long range accuracy, has anyone tried ?
I expect the wood stock to be a little more stable for bench use. The Tactical’s pic rail connects to the barrel, and depending on how I mounted the bipod I found a little poi shift.
The original Avenger really liked the jsb redesigns 21g
I haven't seen a 21 grain Redesign. Do you have a secret source for prototypes or did you mean the 25 grain ones?21 grain would be an interesting weight!
@@WiscAirGunners what I and probably others would like to see are 18.13 grain .22 Hades and a .25 cal 34 grain MK2 Hades.😉 Wish they would come out with them and soon!
Now that’s BFE. Love it.
"Built For Everyone?"
@@WiscAirGunnersexactly 😂😂
Have the X arriving tomorrow in .22. What fps do you find the best accuracy with on this?
I like 880 for 18.1’s and Hades. You can push faster, but that’s usually my target speed to start.
Hi .... have a question, avenger x clasic or tactical, which one is more comfortable?
Hmmmm…the Tactical feels lighter and slimmer. I think I prefer the feel of the bottle version of the bullpup to the classic rifle configuration as far as the wood stock variants go. I also prefer the lines and feel of the synthetic, bottle rifle to the wood version.
@@WiscAirGunners thank you so much, greetings from CostaRica!
107% going to be my next purchase. Wood stock classic version.
22 cal.
I like the way the stock sits on the tube version.@@joshuagibson2520
I received my Avenge-X classic wood stock in .22 cal this past saturday and I am planning to start the tunning process today with my chronograph but from my experience with my other first generation Avenger wood stock the first thing I will do is degassed and set the regulator to 1 bar only around 1500 psi to start from there. I only shoot with relative lightweights pellets my lightest are the crosman 14.13 and the heaviest are the JSB exact jumbos in 18 grams and also shoot with the 15.89 JSB the FX and the air arms diabolo fields 16 grams. I don’t shoot with slugs because they are not as accurate and precise as the pellets especially is we compared with the JSB pellets. The sweet spot to reach the best groups and consistency with all this pellets is to tune this airguns to shoot between 870 and 890 psi, this is the same tune I use in my three airguns including my Kaliburgun cricket II tactical .60 and use Arkens SH-4 second generation FFP 4-16x50 scopes with Arkens medium size rings in all my airguns with great success.
How did you manage to remove the baffle from the shroud with out marring up the steel end cap? I have tried and also tried to remove the barrel from the shroud so I could clean and polish and can't get those caps to budge. The end cap come off nice no problem so I was able to mount my moderator but no luck on the others.
There was no need to remove the baffle stack so mine is still in place. I think it might be epoxied in there.
Removing the barrel from the action is pretty easy, just two set screws. I've not had a reason to take the shroud off of the barrel, so I'm not sure how that would be done.
Removing the barrel from the shroud makes it easier to clean and polish the barrel....I polished the barrel in my .22 avenger and made quite a difference in accuracy. Thanks for the response anyway.
is it possible to change the buttstock to folding one
Updated 😀
I ordered one Avenge-x tactical and mine came out with defective stock where the buffer tube connects to the stock, it will crack in half. if your stock flexes, send it back,
I ended sending back two tactical models and I send a Notice to maufacture & AitgunDepot to recall this model with tacticaal stock.
Between AV and your retailer I'm certain they will take care of you on that.
Awesome💯💯💯
Thanks!
Nice bro can the trigger be adjusted
Yes. There is a thorough description in the manual on page 12.
Also it fits the Armada tactical
First pcp gun for me. Having trouble to find the good tuning
Where did you start...what was the tune like out of the box?
What is your caliber? What speed are you trying to achieve? Where are you now? What pellets are you shooting?
220 bar regulator /hammerspring max out of the box.
.25 cal , 25,4 gr king pellets.
Now at 165 bar, looking for 850 fps . Got to much up and down spikes .
@@bertdefauw have you watched the AEAC video?

Hi... Perhaps (hopefully) you can help me with some information about this ?
I've been reading about the Air Venturi PCPs and within the information text on the Avenger, this was part of the text : "The Air Venturi Avenger is a powerful PCP air rifle with moderating fully shrouded barrel and a maintenance free synthetic barrel. "
What sort of synthetic material are the Avengers barrels made of since they're "maintenance free" ?? I'm used to steel barrels as well as barrels made from lightweight steel/aluminium alloys, having carbon wrapped around for rigidness and stability, but I can't seem to find any information on the subject of this so-called "maintenance free synthetic material" used for the Avenger rifles.
Hopefully you'll be able to clarify this matter to me 😊
I’m not sure where that quote is from, but the Avenger and AvengeX barrels are made out of steel.
@@WiscAirGunners Thanks for your quick reply 👌🙂
it's in the information segmentet about Air Venturis rifles on the Dutch firearms webshop Krale.
@@jakupmadsen490 interesting. I’m guessing it’s an error in translation. Steel barrels.
@@WiscAirGunners Yes You're probably right...
Btw, do you know what the easiest way to get in contact with the marketing department of Niksan Defence? I've seen many of your reviews of Niksan PCP's and price taken to consideration when seeing how well they apparently shoot, then I'd really like to acquire one of the Niksan Ozark-TW rifles, but finding dealerships here in the EU who have them for sale is really difficult.
I did get my own birthday gift it was the gauntlet 2 22 and the gauntlet 2 30 caliber one day I will be able to inter the compatible air gun shooting but it will be in the handy cap level because i,m blind in one eye and almost blind in the other one but I have a scope to help me with that problem and I have to have a hip replacement some time soon so I can try to get to the airgun shows and games maybe I will get to met all y,all one day so keep shooting and making videos and stay safe your friend and fan
Like Your Stuff, Like Your Tec Stuff, Like Your Real Airgun Stuff, Like ( "A Question" by Don Pixel ) Song @ end of Video.....Franky
Thanks!
How upgradable is this...barrel and transfer port ? Valve seat..? Power plenum ???
I will have to let time and other tinkerers answer those questions.
I’m certain with access to appropriate funds, tools and materials all of the above could be modified to a certain degree, though to what level of performance improvement, if any, only experimentation would say.
@@WiscAirGunners levithan got to 980fps with a 34 grain .. if this can do that... perfect
Very nice 👌 👍
Thanks!
Your gun is shooting with pretty consistent FPS, while other reviewers are getting some significant spread in their fps. Any idea?
Not sure. I filmed this one as it came to me.
Since filming I dropped the reg pressure a little bit and backed off the hammer to bring the velocity down just a tad. It was easy to do and the re-tune only took about 10 minutes. It's a tunable airgun, so spending the time to find the right balance between the reg pressure and the hammer spring tension will be the difference between a consistent tune and a "bad" one.
Please share a review of semi bullpup wooden stock bottle version
Let me see what I can do. What specifically do you want to know about it?
Sir can you explain what the significance of a stainless steel regulator v/s I would guess brass as a standard regulator please?
The stainless part equates to rust and corrosion resistance, something brass does naturally but mild steel is pretty bad at. Steel is harder than brass, so more resistant to deforming or scratching. Steel will expand or contract less with temperature variations. Which could effect performance. It’s also harder to machine, which effects cost.
Were can I buy one
That depends on where in the world you are located. I think there are some markets AirVenturi services directly through their retail channel and other places where they have dealers.
Hey PJ did you notice any reg creep ?
I just walked over to the rack to take a peek. It's sitting exactly where I left it after filming.
@@WiscAirGunners thank you PJ
How many shots are you getting on average?
I haven’t done a full string yet on the tune, and it will vary widely based on how you tune it, but I have a future video planned where I’ll discuss shot count.
I have a effecto zeon BP wich cost almost the same like this in europe i think this is more expensive (tbh you can tune better with this rifle)BUT it is all about hitting bullsey...Hmmm nah i dont give up the zeon for this TBH..dont get me wrong you can tune the hell out of this rifle..but hitting rats hat at 30 meter's 98 out of 100 hmm..But i like your clip allot thumb's up..P>S you tune this gun for 50 ?because it was better then 30?afcoase you dit rofl.....No doubt..last group your tune was epic ..admit
We don’t see many of the Effecto’s here. Interesting looking rifle. Thanks for watching!
wear can u site inn if u dont have land live in oshkosh have 8 dif air rifeles
I’m pretty sure Winnebago County has a public rifle range. If not, I know there are several in Fond du Lac County.
Im curious why between the groups the impact point is different especially the 50 yard target?
At the 50 I was shooting at different intersection points. Meaning I didn’t shoot too left and top right along the same lateral line. Confusing on my part. Thinking back, I can’t explain why I decided to do it.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks!
also, those guns usually ship with a lot of protectant in the barrels. First cleaning shows a lot on the patch
I don't normally clean for this type of review, but will get around to it eventually.
yeah, I think it will get even better after cleaning and break in @@WiscAirGunners
