i agree with this right here. only thing is finding them is pretty much impossible.

i bought a $250+ gamo last year and kept it for a few mths... it shot 1400fps and was louder than a real 22 cartridge. had other pellets i bought that were slower and quieter. i ended up trading it for a 30-06 remington.

the problem is it never was accurate shot for shot. one would go high then one low then one left then the next could hit a dime at 25 yds. it was so inconsistent and useless. i would setup targets at 75 yds and i would tear them up but it just didnt hold true. the best pellet gun i ever had was the old benjamin pump. always dead on and never had a problem.

i would NOT ever recommend a gamo spring gun to anyone ever! total junk. i also read review after review about the same problems with them. looked really cool though. theres a good chance that with new scope would have fixed the problem but i wouldnt wanna spend another $200 on an already overpriced toy.

in place of the gamo i bought my son a "cricket" and the colibri primer rounds. best purchase ever. watched my son nail his first bird with it.
