Beeman Chief III Plus‑S PCP Air Rifle Overview

The Beeman Chief III Plus‑S is a pre‑charged pneumatic (PCP) rifle offered in two calibers: .177 (4.5 mm) and .22 (5.5 mm). Both versions share the same core architecture, featuring a sidelever action, a rifled 25‑inch barrel, and an overall length of 42.5 inches.

The rifle operates at a regulated pressure of 3500 PSI (≈241 BAR), which allows up to 100 shots per fill. This pressure level is maintained by an internal regulator, providing consistent shot‑to‑shot velocity.

Velocity specifications differ by caliber: the .177 version reaches a maximum of 1100 feet per second, while the .22 version tops out at 1000 feet per second. These figures are achieved with the rifled barrel that stabilizes the pellet for accurate flight.

The rifle’s weight is 7.05 lb (approximately 3.20 kg), making it manageable for extended shooting sessions. Its synthetic stock is black, and the rubber buttplate adds recoil mitigation and weather resistance.

Capacity varies with caliber: the .177 model holds 12 rounds, whereas the .22 model holds 10 rounds. Both configurations use a repeater function, enabling rapid follow‑up shots without manual reloading between each shot.

Ergonomically, the Chief III Plus‑S features an ambidextrous grip orientation, accommodating left‑ and right‑handed shooters alike. An 11 mm dovetail rail is integrated into the receiver, providing a standard mounting platform for scopes, red‑dot sights, or other optics.

For aiming, the rifle includes fiber‑optic front sights that gather ambient light for a bright sight picture, paired with adjustable rear sights that allow windage and elevation corrections. This combination supports quick target acquisition in various lighting conditions.

The trigger mechanism is a two‑stage adjustable design, enabling shooters to set the first‑stage take‑up and second‑stage break weight to suit personal preference. A manual safety lever is present to prevent accidental discharge, and the rifle has been tested and certified safe for dry‑fire practice.

According to the manufacturer’s guidance, the Chief III Plus‑S is suggested for small‑game hunting and plinking. Its loudness rating is classified as 3‑Medium, indicating a moderate report that balances power with consideration for nearby residents.
