Page 6 - Beeman R9 Reviews

ACCURACY, trigger, weight, feel, fit and finish. I have a beautiful RWS 48 that I've put a couple thousand rounds through and still haven't got the hang of how to get a decent group with it. This gun, on the other hand , is deadly accurate and I'm shooting single hole groups at 10 meters and dime to nickle sized groups at 30 meters. The blued metal and wood finish are exquisite and the mechanical operation is smooth, distinct and solid. The gun just feels good in your hands. Shooting this fine rifle is addictive, you just can't put it down.

Adjustable cheek rest and butt plate would be nice to have, but of course it would change the price point.

I've been putting mostly premium pellets through it and it does well with most. I generally shoot paper targets and lean towards wadcutters and get excellent results with H&N Match, RWS R-10. However, I also get pretty nice results with RWS Hobby pellets too. Many dealings with Pyramid Air and they have excellent sales and support. They make it too easy to buy all manner of air gun related products!

Gorgeous, from the checkered stock to the quality of the bluing. I got mine in .20 (which was to correct the mistake I made in getting my R1 in .177) and have been shooting JSB Diabolo Exact pellets. I also added the Leapers 50AO 6X32 scope with high Accushot mounts...an awesome combination.

For the price Beeman should provide open sights with this rifle. Maybe I'm just cheap at heart, but these Beemans command a pretty hefty price (which has gone up considerably over the last couple of years so you could have an option.)

Not too heavy, very well made, easy cocking, accurate and beautiful air rifle.
Get one before the price goes up!

This is one of the best shooting air rifles that I've ever owned. It's accurate, powerful, and easy to cock and load. It has a nice feel and is easy to hold. It's ambidextrous and I really like the adjustable two stage trigger.

I would use a standard front sight instead of the peep sight. I would like to see less of a recoil and perhaps a compensatore at the end of the barrell to expel some of the air thaT causes some shots to tumble. All of these aren't reasons to not buy the gun.

Weight wise this is a heavy gun so don't try to hold it for a long time before shooting. Also you might like using a scope instead of the regular sight. I do.

every thing

i would change just the safety

great rifle for long range targets shooting, and the most of all, fore hunting, 9/10 pellets kill, very accurate, and very good for crow hunting ( all my shot that i did with it on a crow, killed the crow with one shot from 50 yards +, then buy it, it'll make you happy !!

every thing, great hunting rifle, and great accuracy ( great for long range shooting)

the safety good but sometims you need to put some oil on it, one more thing is that the barrel get rust fast.

put the WD40 or what i really like "simoniz colour restorer" ( for car and it will be great for rust on the barrel or other part,
the most great pellets with this rifle is the crow magnum, (REALLY great accuracy and great 4 hunting) NOT rifle 4 beginners

Although I am relatively new to quality airguns, I have owned a couple of cheap chinese airguns, and believe me, there is no comparison! This is a quality rifle, beautiful workmanship and finish, worth the price.

Nothing.

If you are a first time air rifle buyer, just remember that you usually get what you pay for.

Very nice trigger pull. Beautiful wood and blue. Very accurate. 1 ragged hole group at 10 yards. Plenty of power. Ordering and shipping was easy and prompt from PyramidAir. Like other airguns, it is fun to shoot. I went through over 800 rounds over the course of a weekend.

I use heavy .177 cal. pellets.... Beeman Kodiaks and Crosman Ultra Magnums with very good results. Kodiaks have a very slight edge in accuracy with my rifle. I eliminated several Sparrows and Starlings from my garden. A well placed shot really makes a fast and painless kill. I plan on using it this fall for Squirrel hunting.
