Building some of the most accurate air rifles in the world is a major part of the Benjamin Airguns legacy. While every air gun we make delivers exceptional performance, certain models are especially appealing to target shooters and hunters who demand absolute pinpoint precision.

Whether you’re competing professionally or simply looking to tighten your grouping, there are specific features you should seek out if shot-to-shot accuracy is your highest priority. You can’t go wrong with any Benjamin, but if you really want to hit that bullseye every time, you’ll need to choose an air gun that’s outfitted with accuracy-focused upgrades.

It’s worth noting that precision is only part of the equation. After all, even the most accurate air rifle in the world will let you down if it doesn’t also have other critical traits, such as power, comfort, ergonomics, durability, and reliability—not to mention a distinctive style. At Benjamin Airguns, we consider all of these factors when designing and manufacturing our products.

Let’s take a look at three of the most accurate air gun options in the Benjamin Airguns catalog.

1. Most Accurate Overall: Marauder Regulated

The Benjamin Marauder PCP is a modern classic. It’s available in a wide variety of configurations, with the Marauder Regulated being an outstanding option for those who are on the hunt for the most accurate air rifle in the world. Here’s why.

Regulated Airflow

In order to understand why the regulated model is especially precise, you need to be familiar with how PCP air rifles work and what regulators do.

Standard non-regulated PCPs have what’s called a bell curve when it comes to their shot strings. This is when the velocities rise and fall with the pressures of the reservoir. When you pull the trigger, a hammer strikes a valve, which causes it to open and release airflow that launches the pellet. In the beginning the valve can only open so much because the air in the reservoir has full pressure forcing it shut. After taking multiple shots, the reservoir’s air pressure naturally decreases, while the hammer continues striking with the same amount of force.

This interaction causes the valve to open longer, releasing more air. When more air is released, pellets travel faster, causing your point of impact (POI) to rise. Eventually, the reservoir pressure decreases to the point of diminishing return and the speed of the pellet starts to decrease and your POI starts to fall.

The Marauder Regulated is one of the most accurate air rifles in the world because its regulator controls the airflow. As you can imagine, consistent airflow means consistent shooting. Therefore, giving you a flat shot string until your pressure drops below your regulated pressure setting.

Lothar Walther Barrel Upgrade

Besides airflow regulation, the barrel is another major factor to consider as you search for the most accurate air gun. Simply put, quality matters. The barrel guides the pellet out of the air gun, so if it’s compromised in any way, accuracy is bound to suffer.

Lothar Walther barrels are highly respected throughout the airgunning community. If you demand match-grade precision, upgrading to an LW barrel is a no-brainer.

2. For Large Game Hunting: The Bulldog Series

As you research the most accurate air rifles in the world, you might also be prioritizing power. If you want an air rifle that delivers both precision and power in spades, consider one of our Big Bore air rifles.

Both the Bulldog M357 and Bulldog .457 come equipped with rifled Lothar Walther barrels. Compact bullpup configurations are a joy to wield, and a Baffle-less SoundTrap™ shroud drastically reduces noise to prevent distractions when you’re focusing on the shot. The Bulldog M357 Value Pack is an excellent option for those who prefer to use a scope to improve accuracy.

3. With Mil-Spec Styling: The Armada

Part of finding the most accurate air rifles in the world is also finding the one that fits your personal preferences. Many airgunners appreciate Mil-Spec military-style air guns for their sleek, modern designs. The Armada PCP air rifle is a very popular choice among those seeking one of the most accurate air gun options with a military-style configuration.

The Magpul MLOK slots on the handguards for accessory attachment. It’s backward compatible with AR-15 stocks and grips, and the Picatinny rail makes it easy to add your preferred scope (the Armada Kit includes a scope). Additionally, the Armada has a choked, shrouded, and rifled barrel for incredible precision and shot-to-shot consistency.

Make It Yours

While these are some of the most accurate air rifles in the world, any Benjamin air gun you choose will deliver exceptional precision, power, and consistency. Our air guns are made to be customized and grow to fit the owner’s hands and shooting style.

There are many ways to boost your air gun’s performance. For example, some people use the Benjamin Single Shot Tray to prevent pellet damage caused by rotating magazines. Also, don’t overlook the importance of using high-quality air rifle ammo. Building the most accurate air gun is a fun and rewarding journey, so keep getting inspired. Get a Benjamin, and make it yours.
