Good Points: Very accurate
Bad Points: Slightly heavy ( we all knew this when buying it)
General comments: I have recently purchased a S16s, truly shocked at the power of this thing. killing rabbits at 50yrds+, didnt think it was possible, my mate owns a HW100t,177. nice gun, but nothing like the S16. very accurate. using air arms pellets seems to work well, and most of all NO JAMS.

The first air rifle I bought and it's the only rifle I ever had. Like what everyone says, it's very accurate and I find the rifle a really cool design. For an air rifle, this isn't expensive compared to most out there. If you buy this rifle, you got to get the Logun Penetrator pellets because they are superb, it's rock hard and guarantees extra knockout power.
A few bad points but I think the good makes up for it. It is very heavy and for an average build size person, you can probably hold it ...

I have the .22 version of the Logun S16s and it got mixed reports when it first came out. Its predecessor, the S sixteen, known as sweet sixteen, had made a place in the hearts of air gunners. The major problem appeared to have been the O ring, which seemed to wear at a terrific rate of knots. The other problem lies in the trajectory of .22 as opposed to .177, the latter stated as being 'more forgiving.' Having bought one I lubricated the O ring with gun grease, and regularly cleaned off the ol ...

This is the S shrouded model, looks good. I had early problem with pellets jamming and found the cause in my case to be the 16 shot magazine retaining rubber rings that should hold the pellets in place. I found that for me it was always the first pellet that jammed, so I did not load the first pellet in each of the rotating magazines and all was well, what was happening was that the first pellet was not within the shielded part of the magazine and the rubber retaining ring allowed the pellet to ...

A Pyramidair you can attach a CO2 adapter for $40 bucks and run it on paintball airtanks (co2/air). Pick your vice. Only jammed twice due to my ignorance on NOT properly cocking the bolt fully to load the pellets.
I can consistently hit a Gamo steel silhouette target at 45-50yrds with a steady hold or platform. Got lots of attention at the rifle range due to it's looks. Lots and lots of shots per airtank 4500psi PureEnergy paintball tank attached and or 16oz CO2 tank.

I have tried and owned allmost every pcp on the market ,but I was never happy with the longtherm accuracy and mechanical quality.
After a season, and having fired more than 7000 shots with the Logun s16-s I never had any problems (other than replacing the o-rings).
Now I can say, buy the best gun there is on the market. It may be a bit more expensive, but it's worth every penny.

All said and done, a brilliant all rounder. But friendly advice to anyone who has one of these without a cleaning kit and barrel rod, INVEST IN ONE! Because when it jams, and it will, a barrel rod will save you a bundle, 45 from my local dealer to get the breach flushed each time. But back to the rifle, no regrets at all. Thanks for reading.

Must buy a CO2 adapter from PyramidAir and use a paintball airtanks Co2 16oz. or 4500psi 45Cu PMI PureEnergy Carbon Fiber tank for versatility and 350 shots in one fill , BIPOD spring Harris style, 50mm scope, I use Crosman POINTED Pellets. Co2 gas is better for warmer days and airtank is better for colder days and or year round.
To prevent pellet jams....DO NOT double cock and make sure that the cock lever is fully set forward to lock the pellet load into the breach.

This is the first precharge I have owned. I was looking forward to an easy life of not having to break a barrel each time I wanted to pop a shoot off. How wrong I was. I got the rifle new but within 2 days I had my first jam. It has jamed on about 3 other occasions. The only good thing that has come from owning this rifle is that I'm now a profesional at stripping down and rebuilding it! My best time is about 20 mins. joking aside, when it does work, it's a top class rifle.

Spent the last 2 days trying to get ONE pellet to fire through the Logun S16s. Even after reading about the proper lever-cocking technique and proper pellets to use I still found myself tearing it down to retrieve the pellets jammed into the barrel. I'll give it one more try and have this one replaced by my dealer (in the USA).... but if the replacement misbehaves I'll have to find another place to spend $1000 USD.

Just started to play with dynamic pcp2 in 5.54 and i have to say wow . Made from tin i think do not need to worry about over pen because you will find that they hit pellet after pellet up to 50 yards no problem. Over pen on a rabbits skull never heard of it. + if anybody can tell me were i can purchase the correct size o rings from because logun want to much ££££££ cheers and happy hunting.

I bought this rifle with a scope for £370, and that was second hand, the thing that anoyed me was the fact that it kept breaking, it was in the shop a lot, they would fix it, and then charge me for cleaning tools, it was so bad they broke. Then charge me double what the tools cost. I sold the gun a month later but i only got £250 for the lot. I wouldn't recommend it but i am considering buying another, call me crazy . . . .

I've been shooting with an S16 mk1 for a few weeks now and fell in love with it. Unfortunately I couldn't source one to buy so settled on the S16s or mk2.
At first glance the shroud on the "S" model makes the gun look "chunkier" therefore heavier. It's not. Any weight difference is minimal and cant be detected in holding each gun in either hand.
The chunkier look is also made by a longer forestock being fitted. This longer forestock alleviates a niggle, that the Mk1 has, when using a bipod ...

I've had my s16 for a few months now and i must say what an amazing gun it is, I don't find it to heavy at all i can shoot all day with this rifle no problem. Many rabbits and wood pigeons have fallen at a good 40 yards with this gun. I haven't really had any problems with it so far, but this rifle feels so well built that its no surprise to me.

Find the right pellet and this rifle will not let you down. I found H & N Target Trophy to be best after spending ££££ on finding the right one. This also helped with the cocking action. I found it a lot smoother and moor accurate. Also napier pellet lube made a bit of a difference but generally ***** everything i wanted BRILLIANT

I bought this gun brand new despite all the warnings and bad press and....
Well it ain't half bad if truth be told sure its heavy and to some ugly but its such a tough little sod you'll never bend it.
It's also pretty darn accurate and nicely powered a clean kill at 40 yards isn't even fun its that easy.
The magazine is a nice feature too 2 separate 8 shot chambers fill em up rock n roll when one is empty flip it over n rock n roll again.
However if you don't pull the cocking bolt all the wa ...

Hi I have had the same problem with my Logun S16S
I continually argued with Logun over this, because with all the accessory's that I purchased with my Logun.
I ended up paying over £1250,00
Now on the last recall due to leaking they supplied me with 10 O-rings for the bottle & a small tub of SG-3 Logun assembly silicone grease & a note suggesting to use a small amount of this on the seal each time i replaced the bottle.
"Well thats the fix" i have been in hospital & recovering from a g ...

I have owned my S16s for around 2 months now and it has claimed the lives of many feral pigeons, magpies, crows and rabbits. I have fitted it with an AGS VIPIR 6-24-50 scope and the two combined look amazing. My favourite aspect of this rifle is how solid it is, there are no rattles or loose bits. The rifle is heavy at around 9 pounds with my scope on but it is very well balanced and doesn't feel as heavy as it actually is. This rifles accuracy is astonishing, and with Logun Penetrator 16gr the ...

I bought my S16 about a year ago because i liked a lot of points about it. After a lot of getting used to and getting over the double cocking which ends up jamming up to something like five pellets in the breach, i realised just what sort of power it delivers. An awesome bit of kit if you're in to that style of gun.
