Crosman Benjamin Bulldog Value Pack 357 Caliber 10 Rounds

About this product

This listing is the Crosman-made Benjamin Bulldog .357 caliber value pack — a pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) big-bore air rifle bundled with a complete accessory kit including a scope, hard case, sling, and bipod, priced at $989. Despite the "caliber" and round-count language in the title, this is an air rifle, not a firearm and not conventional ammunition — it fires .357-caliber airgun pellets or slugs powered by compressed air rather than a gunpowder cartridge.

What is a PCP air rifle, and why does .357 caliber matter here?

Pre-charged pneumatic air rifles store high-pressure air in an onboard reservoir, charged in advance from a hand pump or carbon-fiber tank, and release a metered amount of that air behind each shot rather than requiring the shooter to pump or cock the gun before every round. The Bulldog's .357 caliber puts it in the big-bore air rifle category, built for hunting medium game like hogs and coyotes at air-rifle-appropriate ranges, delivering up to roughly 800 feet per second and up to 200 foot-pounds of energy — genuinely serious output for an air-powered platform, though still well below a firearm cartridge of similar bore diameter.

What does the bullpup design and included gear add?

Crosman built the Bulldog in a bullpup configuration, placing the action behind the trigger to keep overall length shorter than a traditional rifle layout with the same barrel length — useful for maneuvering in brush or a blind. The sidelever bolt is reversible for left-handed shooters, making the platform genuinely ambidextrous, and the steel barrel is shrouded with Crosman's baffle-less SoundTrap technology to reduce report. This value pack bundle adds a scope, rifle case, sling, and bipod on top of the rifle itself, aimed at buyers who want a complete hunting setup rather than sourcing optics and accessories separately.

How many shots does it get per fill, and what's the magazine like?

The platform is multi-shot and magazine-fed rather than single-loading, with a rotary magazine, and delivers roughly 10 usable shots per air fill before velocity starts to drop off meaningfully — a number PCP shooters plan their hunting or range sessions around, refilling the reservoir between outings rather than mid-session. Confirm the exact magazine capacity included with this specific value pack configuration with our team, since Crosman has offered the Bulldog with different magazine options across its production run.

Does this require any special purchasing process?

No. Because this is an air rifle, not a firearm, it does not require an FFL transfer, a background check, or a waiting period in most jurisdictions — it ships directly to the address on your order like any other air rifle or sporting goods purchase. Air rifle regulations do vary somewhat by state and locality, particularly for big-bore models capable of taking game, so it's worth confirming your local hunting regulations if you plan to use it for that purpose.

For a shooter looking for a complete big-bore PCP hunting setup without assembling the accessories separately, this value pack bundles a genuinely capable air rifle with the gear most buyers would end up purchasing anyway, at meaningful savings over buying the rifle, optic, case, sling, and bipod as separate purchases from different retailers, and without the guesswork of matching an aftermarket scope and mount to the rifle's rail yourself, since everything included is pre-matched to fit right out of the box.
