Hatsan Torpedo 100X Air Rifle, Walnut Vortex

I like the wood stock and the weight of the rifle. The automatic safety is located in a rather clever spot.

I do not think that the loading mechanism is going to consistantly return the barrel to the same spot over time.

It's got some power but the lack of accuracy makes it unfun. I could not get any consistant shots with my rifle.

Very nice wood stock.

Trigger, cheap plastic components such as the safety and the trigger guard. Loctite on sight screws and the retainer for the cocking lever would have been nice.

The trigger is horrible. It had so much side to side slop I thought something was wrong with the gun. Accuracy from the one I purchased is horrible. I have tried numerous brands of pellets and shot off sand bags and a lead sled to experiment with improving accuracy. Nothing has helped. I installed a Leapers 4-16x50 on this gun which was pointless the open sights are sufficient for the accuracy. Assuming you loctite the rear sight screw as it and the retainer for the cocking where loose and fell out. The metal edges are sharp and the bluing near the bolt handle on the barrel is starting to rub off. Pyramid Air was excellent to deal with, the rifle arrived a day earlier than I expected. I would definitely not recommend this rifle though. It does seem powerful, shooting through pine boards that I mount targets on. It arrived very oily from the factory which took some time to clean. It is also pretty loud, much too loud for backyard shooting or indoor shooting without bothering others.

I have had my HatsanTorpedo 100-x under-lever 22 cal. for tow weeks.Very impressed.I am a fan of vintage military bolt action rifles and the Hatsan 100-x under-lever has the look and feel of many in my collecton.Iike the bolt action loading port. Very nice walnut stock,good finish,very nice blueing.This is a very well made gun.This is my first air rifle.It is very powerfull and highly accurate.It has very good sights.I would highly recommend this rifle if your looking for a under-lever.

Nothing!

Hatsan torpedo 100-x likes 14 to 18 gr. lead pellets.

Very well built and powerful, nice finish and checkering.

The stock is not as well finished as the German guns, one side of the stock surface has an undulating wave and not flat.

Half the price of the Diana Mauser K98 (which has slightly higher muzzle velocity rating - 850 vs 800 for .22 caliber), but has more power and penetration.

Hard hitting,quality construction,good tru-glo sights,nicely balanced, lanyard swivels,brass operating buttons,nice stock,accurate ,nice trigger and not too loud

Safety switch is plastic and is the only part of the gun that feels cheap. Supplied bi-pod works but is basically trash.

Stiff to cock but not unreasonable,.This rifle takes 7 steps to make ready for fire....a break barrel only takes 3 steps. Don't forget to return cocking arm after cocking and ensure cocking arm is securely latched at muzzle end

The underlever, the weight of the rifle, barrel/bolt loading system. shoot great.

The front sight should be removable with the laver lock in place. The trigger has a lot of side to side slop, but it still works good.

Front sight may be seen in your scope!

Just shot my new Hatsan Torpedo 100x vortex. It was a bit heavy, which I liked. It was extremely windy on the range, since a storm system passed through previously. Wind was between 15-25 mph. I did not attempt to zero my scope but the rifle appeared to have fired great, with a lot of power. At peak winds I had less than one mil holdover at 50 yards. At that distance the pellet punched a devastating hole through a 1x2 target stand. I was able to hit a bowling pin at 100 meters in the wind, first shot. For that shot a had 2 mil holdover and 3 mil high.

I believe the power is great but the cocking effort is exhausting. After 20 rounds I was defeated. I should note that I'm in ok physical shape and I am an ex infantry man.

It seems like a good buy so far. Accuracy is on point at the moment. First impression I'd great. Let's see what happens.

It's heavy and the wood and metal are done well it broke in smoothly and i have had tons of fun with it

Get rid of automatic safety make front sight removable

It's heavy. Takes a bit too cock so not for small shooters mine prefers heavy or really tight fitting lighter pellets lock tight all screws especially the small screw that releases the under lever. Mine prefers to be held a bit tighter than most other airguns I own. But i really enjoy it and would recommend

I have the .22cal version and it seems well built, except for a couple of minor issues. Mine is actually fairly easy to cock, definitely easier than any spring gun or even a Hatsan Model 87 that I have. I find I can operate the gun easiest by holding the rifle with my right hand and loading/cocking with my left. It's a big gun, almost as long as a Mosin Nagant, definitely not a child's toy. Accuracy seems to be pretty good with the right pellets, but so far I've only shot it at 7 yds indoors.

The finish on the wood is more of a brown paint than shellac or polyfinish, and it scratches very easily. If you have a crowded safe like I do, it's going to get marked up. Also, the cocking lever holding pin needs some Loctite on the end cap. Mine flew off after about 20 shots and it took me awhile to find it. After putting some blue loctite on it, it's stayed put.

My gun fell out of the safe as I was opening the door, and the stock broke. After gluing it together, the stock rolled off my bench while trying to fit it up and broke into another three pieces. This has got to be the most brittle stock wood I've ever seen. If I had known the stock would be this fragile, I would have bought the synthetic stocked version (Torpedo 105x).
