New Crosman Vantage Plus Air Rifle Announced

1719417290975.png

The new Crosman Vantage Plus is a new breakbarrel air rifle that is fed by a manually indexed clip system for rapid follow-up shots. That’s called the “CLIP-fire” system.

The CLIP-fire rotary clip holds up to 6 pellets and is manually indexed between shots. The shooter simply actuates the barrel to cock the air rifle, advances the clip, closes the barrel, then fires the next pellet.

Product Manager Phillip Guadalupe explained to me that the manual clip system eliminates the need to dig in pockets or tins for extra pellets. It and allows the shooter to keep attention on the target.

Best of all it’s “jam proof” he said. Now that’s a really great feature for any air rifle!

While designed to operate primarily with the rotary clip, the Crosman Vantage Plus can also be loaded with a single pellet like a traditional break-barrel air rifle. The cocking effort is about 35 Lbs – that’s typical for a breakbarrel model of this power level.

Crosman has produced this useful video to illustrate the simple, yet effective, method of loading.

Nitro piston-powered, the Muzzle Velocity is up to 800 FPS with lead pellets, 950 FPS with alloy. (This is a .22 caliber-only model at the present time). That gives a peak Muzzle Energy of around 21 Ft/Lbs, making it suitable for pesting and hunting.

The Vantage Plus has an all-weather synthetic stock and built-in suppressor. It is supplied bundled with a 4 x 32 scope and carries the usual Crosman 5-year warranty. The Crosman model code is CVANP2X.

We use to crow hunt here when there were lots of crows to shoot .. never ate one though..🥴

Well all this talk about shooting I guess I'll go out fight off knats and Yella flies and do some of that then put up and cover up for the day. Maybe wount rain as much tomorrow.. never know around here..

Where do you live? I'm in Orange County California and we can't shoot crows, lol.

Good sir, you must have me confused with someone else, though I may have an air arms that the stock is already dented X3 and I also have an HW brake barrel that the stock is cracked, but I have no safe.

In other words, I shoot all my air guns in any and all field conditions. 👍

I have three others as well, but I don’t think I’ll ever have quite the “collection” that you have.
I get it man, I buy all my guns to shoot and use not keeping them in pristine condition. I don't go out of my way to bang them around or rough then up but I don't baby them either. That's what they're for right is to use?
 
I agree with others here that this design (Manual indexing of the "magazine" should be more reliable. I wish someone would be a "higher end" magazine break barrel out. This new Crosman reminds me of my brother's old Daisy 450 from back in the day https://forum.vintageairgunsgallery.com/daisy-air-rifles/daisy-model-450-air-rifle/
Doc

Doc, it costs a whopping $139. I think some members forget "price point" and "entry level" offerings are meant for newbie shooters and guys like me who love inexpensive airguns just to mess around with. It's all part of the hobby, and should be enjoyed. My two cents.

Oh not saying they shouldn’t make this. This is what it is. I was just wishing for a higher end (think Weihrauch) would make a repeater springer. And trust me I own my share of cheap air guns (5 Red Ryders lol). Some are way more accurate than they should be too.

I tell folks that I have a old worn red Ryder that shoots better then that at 10 m ..lol. ( When Im being hateful of course..)
 
Yes. Not currently in working order. I also have a good friend that does custom Daisy bb guns. He has one also. They aren’t powerful and neither was accurate. Its like Daisy tried to make a pellet rifle from a bb gun

When I was 12 years old I made a regular Daisy air rifle shoot .22 rounds with a muzzle attachment. Dangerous as Hell in retrospect, but equally fun for a kid! Used a lot of those Bird Shot LR rounds and got a couple birds. My dad took that toy away too, lol.
 
Hmmm.. I think I'd prefer a manual index clip then the ones with all the contraption stuff . Less chance of malfunction so I like that ..lol

But once again why no sights ? I just don't get it . Sorry , No sale..
Hateful, I read this article and the first thing that popped into my mind was, Hateful McNasty will love this with a passion. You know, not being PCP and all. Slow to load and cock, lower fps and ftp of energy. Hahahahahaha, guess you showed me I was wrong again.

Doc, is the Daisy 450 the one that kinda looks like the red Ryder, with the .177 caliber rotating mag that snaps in the side? I had one of those years ago, and I found it as impressive as a rubber band gun for power, but I did always hit what I shot at with it.
