Benjamin AKELA Video Review
- Thread starter Wingman115
- Start date
Great review. I’m hoping somebody will start making aftermarket barrel bands for it. I know I can’t lean mine up against the wall or it will change the POI.So I bought a case for it and that problem is solved as long as I don’t bump it kind of hard.

Thanks for your thoughts. A few things that will help you.
The bottom piece of wood between the bottom of grip and the butt plate is known as the "bag rider", specific for bench shooting. The wood stock Hatsan Flashpup is a gun that does not have a bag rider built-in.
The pellet shape is not di-Ab-lo...that is"devil" in Spanish. The wasp waisted pellet shape is dia-bO-lo.
Shoot'em good.

...my Cayden does not ping like that...that was one thing I liked right off...I don't hear any ping...
...I wondered if there was variation in that regard as my Airforce rifle seems to ping more loudly than ones I saw on YouTube...

...that is one reason I did not get the Akela or Kratos...I suspected the long thin unsupported barrels would be prone to that sort of thing...
...I liked how solid the Cayden felt enough to overlook some crudeness and excessive wieght...
...I have leaned it against the wall w/o issue, although I did wonder aboot that very issue...
...I thought I was having that problem with my Airforce TalonP with a long 24" barrel installed but it turned out to be my Hawke Vantage scope that was causing POI changes...
...a slight bump you might not even notice was enough to change POI...

After watching that video, I was about to go take a hammer to mine. lol Here's a real quick review. For the price, It's pretty good gun I like mine.

...they sold out...their flaws are common...
...unwanted Caydens are stacked like cordwood...

I could see a bottle gun and a bull pup but they already have guns like the Cayden in their lineup.
