I went 4 stars on this because like others have commented, the trigger is horrible. creepy, unpredictable, and for me doesnt break the same way twice. It can be made a little better following the adjustment procedure in the manual but dont expect a match trigger.

Groups started out in the 4 to 5 inch range, and its taken a couple hundred shots to break in and get groups down to just under an inch @ 25 yards. Again though a decent trigger should help out here.

When ordering be sure to get a tube of silicone lube from crosman also, as there is none in the box. My copy was dry with alot of spring twang, and a bit of lube as outlined in the manual fixed that peroblem in a hurry.

The scope is so so, but in the long run plan on replacing it. paralax is bad on mine and cant be tuned out totally.

A better scope, and definately a better trigger, even if it raised the price some would definately get it 5 stars from me.

After unpacking and attaching the scope, reading the manual, tightening all screws, etc, I finally put several rounds though this rifle. First and foremost the trigger is garbage, affter those initial shots I started adjusting, though even with all i consider safe trigger adjustment, it drags, its creepy and doesnt break cleanly. A better trigger is definately needed.
Scopewise i can live with this one for a while. so far it seems to hold zero well, and i like the mil-dot.

The manual states around 100 shots may be needed for breakin, though i found it to be closer to 200. Groups were ranging in the 3 to 4 inch range at 25 yds. All of a sudden groups shrunk to about an inch and have been consistant so far, Though here's where the better trigger would help. Current trigger is around 5 lbs and creepy, not at all predictable. A good 2 lb trigger that breaks cleanly, would tighten up groups considerably.

When ordering be sure to add a tube of the silicone chamber oil also. The rifle comes without any included lube and in my copy was very dry with alot of spring twang. One drop as per the manual and it quieted down noticabily.

I recently purchased the Benjamin Titan GP in a .22 caliber from Bass Pro back in November. I purchased it for small game hunting since I've become a fan of air rifle hunting and it won't break the bank at 160 dollars. Its very affordable and performs excellent for the price after some upgrades. With the stock scope, I was able to zero it in at around 25 yards. This rifle definitely deserves a better scope. took it to the gun range with my brother and I was picking off clay pigeons at 60-75 yards with amazing accuracy! Trust me, invest in a good scope and this gun will hit just about anything. I am going squirrel hunting next weekend so I am very excited. I am extremely please with this rifle and the results after upgrading. It is a great buy!

Received my Benjamin Titan GP from my wife for Christmas and I love it. I mounted the factory scope and it shot four iinches low at 25 yards. 2 adjustments later and bulleye everytime. 3 different people shot a triggernd shot well. Trigger pull is very long, not sure why, but other than that 300 rounds later and i think its ae. great rifle for the price.

I bought this gun for my son for chrstmas. It is beautiful! It easily shoots through 3/8in plywood every time. I faithfully shot through the 100 round break in period and continued anouther 100 rounds. This gun is very inacurate. At 20 yrds i cant get a grouping better than 6in. I have tried two types of ammo and three scopes including the one that came with it. After 600 rounds, i am sendind it back. Very unsatisfied! Also the trigger sucks even after adjusting the pull length.

Review of the Benjamin Titan NP .22 Caliber
My shooting background consists of shooting a Remington VLS 22-250 caliber with hand loaded ammunition. I have killed 100s of hours at the shooting bench, 2 deer at 225 yards and 100yards with it. This rifle is capable of an average group size of .235” groups of 5 shots for 5 separate targets. All from a bench rest
Also I own and shoot a Remington PSS in 308 calibers, capable of the same accuracy. I have been shooting shotguns, pistols and rifles for some 50 years. I also have in by arsenal several other firearms. My initial learning curve came with a Daisy Red Rider BB gun. I have owned two of these in my early years and my children gave me another one for Christmas this year.
I am not a country boy any more. If I were I would be out in my barn yard shooting flies of the meadows muffins with a 12 gauge shotgun or a 50 cal. Barrett. I have been urbanized!! This brings me to this review.
About a week ago I purchased a Benjamin Titan NP in 22 caliber. I am pleased with the looks of the rifle and the Nitro Piston technology, and also the price was reasonable. The advertisement stated that it is 72% quitter than the springer guns in its category, thus lending itself to an urban environment. I have no experience with an air rifle, so I cannot verify the difference in loudness. After about 30 shot fired through the rifle it sounds similar to a pneumatic framing nail gun. According to the ads it should get quieter later. I am aware of the 100 shot break-in period.
I purchased a tin of inexpensive Daisy pellets with the intensions of using them for the break-in period. I fired a few pellets just to see what the rifle would sound like. The sound was no louder than the afore mentioned pneumatic hammer. I later decided to fire a few more rounds to find where the cross hairs were located. After several rounds the cross hairs were located and a few adjustments were made to bring them closer to the point of aim. At 10 meters the rifle was shooting very near the proper elevation and about 2 inch to the right. All in all, I had fired some 25 rounds through the rifle.
Now it is time to clean the barrel, which should have been the first thing I did. I secured my Otters 22 cal. cleaning kit and began the job of swabbing out the bore. I used the nitro solvent on the first two pushes through the barrel. OMG!! There was a mess of black stuff that came out of the barrel looking akin to Black Powder fowling. HMMM this is a pellet rifle isn’t it. Many more patches through the bore and after about an hour the barrel was clean. I did clean from the breach end of the barrel which meant when I closed the barrel it was cocked. Not knowing when my next shooting session would be, I load a pellet into the chamber and went outside and fired it. The sound had diminished slightly!
The next session with the rifle, I fired two shot with the crosshairs center on the target. My sights had moved to the left about 1 inch and the elevation had stayed, but the shots were in virtually the same hole. Ok. It is time for the math. The click adjustments are 1 Click is ¼” at 100 yds., 1/8” at 50 yds., 1/16” at 25 yds., and about 1/32” at 10 meters. So, I have to make a 32 Click adjustment at 10 meters. Shots 3 and 4 were dead on, again in the same hole. I was elated. Shot 5 was ¼” high. I allowed this to be excitement, not a fault of pellets or sight adjustment.
This rifle is very powerful. It is capable of sending a pellet 250-300+ yards down range. All fire arms safety rules apply to this weapon as well. You should be sure of your target, know what is down range, never fire the weapon at an unknown target. And for Heavens sake never point the weapon, whether loaded or unloaded, at a person.
Now, thing I don’t understand about the rifle. The mounting scope grove is advertised to be 11 mm. The rifle cones with a 4x32 scope and rings. If you pay attention to details you will find the mounting rings to be 3/8” dovetails. It is a wee bit small to fit perfectly on the mounting grove. There will be a small space between the locking plate and the body of the ring. The rings will tighten up, but this could be a source of scope error. This is just my thoughts.
Over all, I believe the rifle meets or exceeds all advertising claims. It is capable of being a very accurate pest and varmint eliminator, plus a very fun rifle to shoot.

This is a great gun. Shot 50 pellets then gave a good cleaning. Now it shoots 5 shots in a circle the size of a quarter. Use Crosman pellets. Tried Gamo TS-22 pellets and they were all different sizes and were not accurate. The Crosman hollow points shoot great. Gun is getting easier to cock and really packs a punch. At 100 yards it makes a deep dent in a steel 55 gallon drum and flattens the pellet totally flat. Pellets go through 1/2" OSB board at 100 yards. Great gun especially for the price.

Great air gun. But one thing . DO NOT DRY FIRE IN YOUR HOUSE IT IS LOUD. But when fired with a pellet its a lot more quiet
GREAT for small game.

Horribly inaccurate(3 brands of pellets, 200rds fired for break in), terrible trigger; this rifle looks nice. That is all it has going for it. I am highly disappointed in the second Benjamin I have owned in the last 30yrs. I would "recommend" not buying this air rifle.


JTS

i love the stoping power but i hate the stock scope i have had nothing but problems zeroing the scope

Best gun for the best price! The scope, nothing special for an air gun. But if you want to spend more on a scope for a air gun I guess that is your choice. This does the job but you will have trouble findind that spot on your targuet @ more than 60 ft. I wouldn't shoot anything farther than that if I can't be sure that I'll make a clean kill; wich is less probably considering wind, etc. So choose well your target. The slings mounts is your deal if you're going to be hunting. I set one on the stock and the top one on the right side of the wood forearm. I didnt want to compromise the integrity of break mechanism. And be Safe @ 90 ft the cross. hollow point were able to pass a 1/4'' plywood; @ 40 ft goes through rabbit skin and bones and there is no way to be seen in there.

I bought this a while back. I started with a Beeman grizzly z2 and took it back for this. I haven't been able to site it in yet but the gun its self is amazing it has power enough i took down a black bird that eats our crops from 55 yards out of a tree and it dropped like a ton of bricks. I would recommend every one to buy one it will take things out from birds to raccoon.

I have got this rifle from Walmart a couple weeks ago. I sighted in the scope and I got awesome groupings averaging. 25" a 20 yards birdsso got tons of birds and the "cheap" scope didn't seem bad but I am considering another one.

I just bought my new benjamin titan gp from walmart last month..cost me 158.00 total with tax..all i gotta say about this rifle is it really satisfy me..no regret for purchasing it the first place.. I hit every single thing i aimed at. I liked it very much so far its quit, very accurate as well. I shoot all day in my back yard without disturbing my neighbor a bit. My crosman stormxt doesnt compare to it. Im glad i buy this nitro piston..i might get the benjamin trail xl np when i get the money..so if any one looking for an air rifle!. Benjamin is the best i ganrenteed it will not dissapoint you. Thats why im giving a 5 star.

Here is an update to my earlier review. I have now shot over 2000 pellets through my Titan GP. Still holds accuracy with no problem. I will tell you this gun has really impressed me. I have taken well over 200 squirrels with it and it is very fun to shoot. I would like to talk a bit about pellet selection for this air rifle. It is really powerful, so much so that smaller grain pellets don't provide you with that quick and humane kill that every hunter strives for. Lighter grain pellets pass through the body of small game so fast that the pellet doesn't have enough time to dump it's energy completely into the body of your intended target. What I have found is that if you hit a squirrel or other small game animal under 50 yards with this rifle using lighter grain pellets you get what is called a "pass through" or "through and through". This means the pellet zips completely through the animal and fails to dump it's energy. This also becomes a problem because depending where you are hunting, this pellet has the potential to hit something behind your target that you didn't intend it to. Heavier pellets have more of a tendency to enter the body cavity and not exit. This provides a complete transfer of 100% of the energy into the little rascal you just shot. End result, quicker more humane kill due to the shock of the impact. To remedy this I have moved up in pellet weight to the Beeman Kodiak .22, 22.14grn extra heavy pellets. This air rifle has no problem pushing these heavy buggers out there and I can still accurately and humanely take small game out to about 75 yards. The heavier weight of these pellets aids in transfering more of the pellets energy into the target for a quicker kill. I wish crossman would develop a extra heavy pellet for this rifle. My gun really likes the Crosman Premier .22-Cal Hollow Point Hunting Pellets. They are by far the most accurate pellets I have shot through this gun with the Beeman Kodiak .22 extra heavy pellets coming in a close second. As I mentioned earlier though, being a lighter grain pellet, the Crossman Premiers don't have enough time to mushroom and spall before they pass through the body cavity. I have lost several squirrels after a clean shot because they didn't receive enough shock trauma and were able to crawl onto a branch or into the croch of a tree. A friend of mine borrowed this rifle to scare off some problem wild boars that were rooting up his back yard. He managed to kill a young piglet with a single shot behind the ear using a Beeman Kodiak. I would never use this rifle for that purpose but you know when it is what you got, it's what you got . A quick note, because of the increased weight of the Beeman Kodiak's you will have to re-zero your rifle unless you have a milldot scope or are particularly gifted at kentucky windage. In closing I would like to add I'm a gun nut and have a wide selection of both regular firearms and air rifles to choose from when I go hunting. I find myself reaching for this rifle more and more when I go out into the woods squirrel hunting because it is quiet, accurate and fun to shoot. It does the job, what can I say. Great product. Still would recomend that crossman adds a set of sling mounts to this air gun and a better trigger would definatly make this rifle perfect.

BOUGHT IT ABOUT A MONTH AGO, THE 4 X 32MM SCOPE IT CAME WITH WAS CRAP. REPLACED IT WITH A 3X9 -32MM. ONCE ZEROED AT 30 YDS, GROUPS RAN ABOUT 1.25 IN.. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, AFTER SEVERAL HUNDRED ROUNDS, POINT OF IMPACT DROPPED ABOUT 5 IN.. IT DID THIS TWICE!! TOOK THE SCOPE OFF AND REMOUNTED IT (THIS TIME WITH LOC-TITE) AFTER SEVERAL ROUNDS AN ANOTHER ADJUSTMENT! IT IS FINALLY HOLDING ZERO, GROUPS RUN JUST UNDER 3 IN. AT 60 YDS. AND I TAKE ARIZONA SQUIRREL AT THAT RANGE OFTEN. ALL TOGETHER I"VE GOT ABOUT $230 IN THIS RIFLE, NOT BAD FOR WHAT IT IS CAPABLE OF....GOOD DEAL

very good gun, high quality. The only reason I gave it 4 is that there is a ridiculously L O N G trigger pull.

I purchased the Titan NP at Walmart for $148.00 and tax. It has been a great investment. First, the rifle came properly packaged with foam to protect it during shipping and transport. The rifle was free of any damage when opened. The scope included was easy to mount and zero. One caveat, the included hex key wrench did not match the phillips head screws used for the scope rings. An issue easily remedied by a SOG multitool. Once the scope was mounted, it was time to zero. I zeroed the rifle starting at around ten yards then moved back to to 25 yards. This turned out to not be needed but is always good measure in case the scope is way off. I used the shoot-n-c targets and everything was grouped in the ten ring when using the hood of my jeep as a benchrest at 25 yards. This was before the so called break in period. This rifle was a tack driver out of the box as soon as the scope was zeroed. My wife also enjoys shooting it. She says I can let her have the Titan NP and I can get another rifle that I want. I think she is trying to sneak one by me. I would strongly encourage anybody interested in an affordable .22 caliber air rifle to consider the Titan NP. The nitro piston is in fact quieter than a spring or CO2 type rifle. The thumbhole stock is very comfortable and works well left or right handed. The safety is very easy to use. The only things I would change would be the addition of iron sights and a metal trigger guard. I plan on fabricating a metal trigger guard for this rifle. This rifle is easily the best bang for the buck as far as .22 break barrel rifles go. Nothing comes close. Anything else is going to cost over $200 and not have the same power as this rifle.

Bottom line. Great purchase with no regrets.

Love this rifle , nothing but good things to say about it, a couple hundred rounds to break in. Hitting quarter sized targets at 50 yrds , with a replace scope of course, using a center point 3x9x32 with illuminated mildot reticle. This rifle loves the Crosman Premier HP , Predator Polymags, and Beeman Crow Magnums.
Will recommend to every serious small game hunter or target shooter, Real powerful , NOT FOR KIDS.

Am an old man now, 52 yrs ago Dad got me a
Crossman pump pellet gun, carried it all over the woods in upstate NY, had to pump it 10x to get enough power.
Now got a Benjamin break open Regal NP, what a difference, one pump and it's ready to kill and that's what I got it for-squirrels in the bird feeder, tree rats I call'em.
Rifle is accurate and more powerful than old Crossman, still have 50 yr. old Crossman pellets and they shoot fine but new rounded point ones are better.

This air rifle is not a toy. It is quite powerful enough to do severe bodily harm or cause a fatality if not handled responsibly.

I recently acquired the Benjamin Titan GP from Wally-world to eliminate some pesky squirrels that were molesting my bird feeder. I had considered Gamo's but didn't like the price tag. I am an avid shooter and hunter have owned many different air rifles over the years. While making my decission on purchasing a new air rifle I researched the web (youtube) and watched all the reviews and this rifle stood out to me as a good value and adequate for the task. The thumbhole stock is very comfortable to hold and helps to add to the weight of this rifle. It is heavy, which aids in accuracy. The Nitro Piston has a very short and fast stroke and there is very little recoil. I recomend that you become very familiar with the artillery grip as this rifle's accuracy increases as your front hand gets closer to the trigger mech. It takes very little effort to break the barrel over and cock the rifle.

After unpacking this rifle and purchasing a Leapers New Gen 3x9x32 CQB scope with ilum., mildot recticle (#SCP-M392AOLWQ) from amazon along with the UTG rail adapter I had a pretty accurate squirrel denial platform. I sighted the rifle in at 35 yards and using the Crossman Premier .22 hollow point pellets managed to get 6.0mm sized groups consistantly.

I have zapped many squirrels with this air rifle out to 75 yards using the mildot recticle to adjust for windage and elevation. I have found that 75 yards is pushing it for this particular air rifle. My rifle loves the Crossman Premier hollow points and the Beeman Kodiak heavy pellets, @75yrds I can average a .75" group consistantly. As for the Preditor Poly mags save your money. Their skirts do not fit snug in the chamber and accuracy suffers because the skirts don't expand enough to grab the rifling well. I do not own a chronograph but there are plenty of chrony tests on youtube on this rifle with different mnfg pellets to satisfy someone who is a stats buff.

In closing this review I would like to say that Crossman has built a very nice, inexpensive air gun in the Titan GP .22 air rifle. They could have made it even better had they included pre installed sling studs on the butt and hand guard. My next purchase will be a Marauder (.25) PCP rifle.

I would have to Rate this rifle 4 3/4 stars. I would have rated it a solid 5 star's if it had the sling mounts pre installed.

THe Titan is a very well performing rifle. I would have given it 5 stars if the cutaway stock was larger. It's kind of small for my hands and makes a sore spot after about 20 shots. Otherwise, a fine rifle.

Great Rifle.......no second thoughts

i own a titan .22 and must say its so much better than my quest 1000x. ilike my quest ,but when i used my titan it is so much smoother ,less recoil,quieter,eaasier cocking ,and seems to send pellets out and hits real hard.the stock is another plus easer to hold on target . ive shot mine about 175-200 times and its getting broke in .the more i shoot it the better it gets. so far i belive the nitro piston system is the future of spring break air rifles . now crosman design a pistol in nitro,id be first in line to buy 1. id recomend a titan to anybody and if they want to try mine well come over and we will shoot it and we can compare it to my quest .the quest is a tck driver ,but the titan does it lots easier. BOB

I love this rifle. No regrets
