I actually found a web page that had the original instructions for this rifle. Look for the photo/drawings of the man pumping up the rifle and read the instruction on the right side of the drawings.
See the link below.
The Benjamin Model 310 air rifle is designed to shoot .177 caliber pellets. It is a multi-pump pneumatic rifle, allowing for adjustable power by varying the number of pumps. Always ensure that you use the correct type and size of pellets for optimal performance and safety.
1959
The first Benjamin model was the "St Louis model" made in 1899.

Which model. Benjamin made about 20 different models. Also state the condition of the rifle.
It all depends on the model. Which one are you asking about.
Unable to answer this question. No model number and no description of the problem.
Benjamin made a model 1300 air pistol not a air rifle. It would be worth between $130-$155 in VG shape They were made between 1959-1964 They did make a 3100 air rifle... If you have a 1300 rifle then I do not know the value.....

No. It's not designed to shoot them.
The model 3100 & 3200 were manufactured between 1958-85. The 3100 is a BB pump rifle.
It all depends on the make and model. Some are stronger than others. An example is a Benjamin Super Streak can easily shoot 1/4 of a mile and much further.
