Got the .25 Cal thinking I would be able to defend my sheep from the feral hogs that have been attacking them. Needless to say I have pushed back the Beasts and got some food out of it ( Lamb flavored Bacon) LOL. 40 Yards Head Shot.
Pros
Powerful, Super Accurate, Quiet, and Best of all No Paperwork (not a firearm).
Cons
Heavy.
I shot my .22 caliber metal silhouette targets and it does hit hard! Very satisfying sound when hitting them at 50 yards too! Very satisfied to have gone with the Armada as my first PCP airgun!
Pros
Great trigger and it shoots a nickel sized group at 25 yards with Crosman Premiere 14.3 gr pellets. The Center Point scope isn't bad for this platform. I like the ability to customize it with off the shelf AR parts.
Cons
Definitely a heavy rifle but it shoots so well that I don't mind. Buttstock and grip provided are mil-spec per the instruction manual. Adjustable buttstock is loose / wobbly as prior comments have noted. I had planned to change it out for a stock that has a better cheek weld and rubber pad anyway.
This thing is beastly. I zerod the scope for 25 yards and put ten pellets in the same hole.
Pros
Everything. Literally everything
Cons
Haven't found any yet.
Pros
What a shooter! Once I got this dialed in 5here was no stopping it. I am shooting starlings at 50 to 70 yards with a 2 mil drop between the two. I have 5 PCP's including an FX but this is my go to gun. It's a bit heavy but that 's helps with stability. Be sure to match the right pellet to this gun.
Cons
A bit heavy,
Pros
What a super gun! I have the .22 and I am hitting starlings out to 80 yards. The accuracy of this rifle is amazing. I have 5 PCP rifles and this is my go to when I am not having to move around. It's a bit heavy. If you can only afford one gun, I would say buy this one. It's also super quite.
Cons
A bit on the heavy side.
I got the .25 cal and live it, everyone that sees it is like holy $4!t thats an air gun. My 1st shots sighting in the scope did a lot of damage. For safety reasons I mounted a 1/2" cement backer board and a 1/2" piece of composite siding to my 3/4" thick wooden fence. It cleared all 3 layers and lodged into a small tree trunk. I am amazed at the accuracy of this beautiful gun.
Pros
Almost everything.
It is so quiet for a .25 cal.
Cons
I keep spending more money for extra stuff to trick out the gun. LOL
Squirrels are taking over my property and my trusty break barrel broke. I decided to enter the world of PCP air rifles and won’t be going back. I once thought reviews stating single ragged holes at 30 yards were exaggeration. I was wrong. This Armada that I purchased is excellent. I like everything about it. Ordered it from Airgun Depot and it arrived a week later. Everything was double packaged (excellent) and I received everything I needed to get shooting. I immediately went to Turners for an AR style scope mount and a Magpul stock. Clamped a Nikon scope on the mount and was ready to go. Took 7 shots to zero the scope at 20 yards. Once zeroed, proceeded to spit pellets into one hole about the size of a dime. Moved back to 30 yards and had the same result. I ran out of daylight so the testing will continue today. I have no doubt that the accuracy will be outstanding at longer distances. As always, Airgun Depot was excellent to deal with and shipped my order the same day. Thanks AGD.
Pros
Looks, power, build quality, low noise, accuracy
Cons
Included stock rattles a bit. It’s completely functional, but it rattles.
Pros
This is my first pcp and I love it i gor it in the .25 call and i love the scope that it comes with it 10/10 i would recomend
Cons
a little heavy but it makes up for it for being quiet
This was my first air gun purchase. One of the reasons I bought this air gun was it was made in the USA. I was a little disappointed to find that the scope and the stand were made in China. I try not to give any of my money to China these days for obvious reasons. I thought the whole package was made in the USA. I would have paid more for a quality non-China scope and stand. I buy USA first, then any other country but China, and if necessary, then China.
Pros
Very Accurate, Quality build rifle.
Cons
A bit heavy but manageable, Not all included components are made in the USA.
Question?
Login to ask someone who bought this product.Can the barrel be replaced with a 700mm or a 800mm barrel.
asked HARRY from USAbest pellets for hunting and the best for target?
asked craig from USAIs the scope first focal plane or second focal plane?
asked Joshua from USAI read on different boards that on the earlier models stock is not aligned with the barrel and this makes zeroing in your scope difficult. Also, anyone have any issues with the pressure gauge? A friend of mine had his gauge broken right out of the box.
asked Xavier from USAWhat are the best ammo use in this rifle?
asked Sean from USAIn .22 cal, I recommend the JSB Exact Diablo Jumbo Heavy 18.13 gr. As well as the Air Arms Diabolo Field 16 grain pellets as my most accurate. The JSB 18.13 are almost impossible to get ahold of tho, so Ive been sticking with the Air Arms Diabolo Field 16 grains. They work quite well.
John from USAWould a air venturi g9 pump work on this Benjamin armada
asked William from USAYes, I have an Air Venturi G9 pump that I use to fill my .22 Armada.
John from USAIs there a suppressor available for this model?
asked John from USAThis model is integrally suppressed. There are seven removable baffles in the barrel held in by a screw cap at the front. You can shoot this either suppressed or unsuppressed out of the box.
David from USAGood evening, how many shots can be made with a single charge of a .25 caliber.
asked Marco from USAYou should expect 8 good shots from this rifle when you charge to 3000 psi. Since this rifle does not have an air regulator, you will have variances in pellet velocities as the pressure in the air reservoir drops. I installed a Hill Air regulator and I get 12 consistent shots per charge now.
Robert from USAis this the new model? or the older version ?
asked ANDREW from USAMine was the new model. Degassing tools are no longer furnished, nor required to bleed off the air in the air reservoir now.
Robert from USADoes it comes with a case?ammos? And how big the kick for this gun
asked Junfeng from USANo case or ammo. Comes in a brown box. There is virtually no recoil in small caliber PCP airguns, which is partly why they are so easy to shoot accurately
Val from USAI want to buy the 25 cal armada just want to know how it shoots out to 50 yards. Also can you upgrade the barrel
asked Rodney from USAShoots beautiful out to 100+ yrds with the right ammo and optics. I am striking matches and splitting toothpicks at 100 yrds
Tony from USAWhat Pump Would Work with this? A buy link would be appreciated
asked Tyler from USAI purchased a Yong Heng 4500 psi compressor to fill the tank in about 2 minutes from 0. From 2000 psi to 3000 psi takes about 30 seconds. The Yong Heng compressors can be found on eBay and Amazon for under $300.
Robert from USACan this Rifle use flip up sights ? what about the height ?
asked Scrambler82 from USAYes. But not if a scope is attached
Tony from USACan this rifle use hard sights ? Flip-Ups, standard open sights, anything other than a scope !
asked Scrambler82 from USAYes
Tony from USAWhat is the range with this?
asked Duane from USAI am getting groups of .5"-1" at 108 yrds

asked Ederaldo fromHow does a 2 stage trigger work? Which trigger final fires? If front trigger pulls first, which way do you push/pull it? Is it adjustable?
asked Pat
Pros
Thought it was a good gun, but it doesn’t hold air and it shoots crooked. I checked everything try to cite it in and it still shoots crooked.
