Hatsan Galatian Review

Now if you have been reading this site for a while, you know that I do enjoy Hatsan air rifles. They are a range of air rifles, spring cocked or PCP, from Turkey, that go way beyond backyard plinking use.

This time we will be looking closer at the Hatsan Galatian range, available in the calibers .177, .22 and .25.

Now Hatsan makes a lot of shotguns for the domestic and international markets, and these rifles look almost identical to those. I guess you might want to keep that in mind if you are doing backyard shooting in view of the neighbours.

The rifles available in this range is the Hatsan Carbine, or as the sales department calls it.This is a slightly shorter number with a synthetic stock and a built in silencer. Its bigger brothers are the Hatsan Galatian with a synthetic stock and the Hatsan Galatian with a walnut stock .

The stocks are, as always with Hatsan, exquisite. The synthetic stocks do not feel like plastic, it is more of a heavy rubberized material. The walnut stock is beautiful.

The rifles are packed in a nice sturdy hard cases, with loads of accessories and tools. There is the usual Hatsan sling and an extra mag.There are Picatinny rails on the front, sides and on the bottom, as well as an 11mm dovetail, so you can basically attach any possible accessory.The open sights are detachable tru-glo open sights. Very nice.The trigger is outstanding. Crisp and smooth. The safety is right next to the trigger.The rifles has a very nice double load stop, that prevents you from putting a pellet on top of another pellet. This could save you from some grief. A very nice feature.

Inserting pellets can be done with one hand. Very well thought out.

As for accuracy, with a decent scope I get amazingly tight groups. Benched at 25 meters I basically place all pellets in a half inch circle. Basically I just punch one big hole in the target. Very impressive.As for exit speeds and power, the Hatsan Galatian QE Carbine loses some speed and power due to the silencer, we are at approximately 520 FPS and 8.8 foot pounds here.

The bigger brothers are about 65 FPS faster at 585 FPS and impacts at 11.15 foot pounds.
