Overview
The Benjamin Kratos is an American pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle produced by Crosman under the Benjamin Craftsman Series brand. Firing .25 caliber pellets from a 10-shot auto-indexing rotary magazine, it delivers velocities up to around 900 fps and roughly 32 foot-pounds of energy from a 480cc air reservoir charged to 3000 psi, giving up to 60 usable shots per fill. Its choked, shrouded steel barrel provides integrated sound suppression and high accuracy, while the Turkish walnut stock and adjustable two-stage trigger position it as a premium hunting and pest-control air rifle.
