Gamo Hornet

Have only shot a various group of air guns and have to say this is some serious power. The sight I can see being in question however have refined it and now have been shooting in in 2.5 inch circle diameter at 30 yards 50 percent of the Time and just outside the other 50 percent. However in saying so you really have to be aggressive with it or it will take you for a ride....in my opinion.

Pros
Power,look, feel,

Cons
Sight could be better

love mine, it to came with a bad scope so i called gamo and they said send the scope back and they will send me another. it shoots great now and its been over a year. its lite and very accurate, it loves crosman hollowpoints, good luck.

My father in law has this gun, and i ddnt really know the make or model, until i spotted it on this website. I ddnt know the specs. Without knowing that it shoots at an impressive 1200 fps, i couldve told u it was powerful. Just yesterday i shot a possum in my back yard with it (it ddnt flinch!). These animals are tough skinned! So i kept walkin about its business. I thought id missed but 15 ft later down his stroll his hind legs were just being dragged along by his fron two lol. I was impressed that I'd hit this thing with a scope that at 10pm wasn't showing anything due to lack of lighting. But even more so with the power of it . Great gun.

I am disappointed with this Gamo Hornet Air Rifle with the 4x32 scope. I am an excellent shooter and I have fired 20 rounds of Gamo Pellets into a target and adjusted to every 2nd shot. It shoots 3 to 5 inches different each time?? I have checked the scope mounts and everything is secure. I don't know what to do with it except NEVER count on it if I was to run up on a large snake.Also a very poor quality scope.

Cons
Does NOT shoot consistently and has a very poor quality scope.

Ken if u owned the gun u should know the gun has power I can drop a duck with the right pellets

I have owned a gamo hornet for a little over a year, I haven't been able to get it to shoot consistent. I use the artillery hold while shooting, have 3 different AO rated scopes and numerous different pellets The gun will not even shoot through one side of a coffee can. I will not purchase another gamo again.

Pros
Looks good, easy to load and cock.

Cons
Doesn't shoot consistent and has no power

mine likes crossman 10.5 mags also changed scope to a centerpoint 4x32 at 90 feet or better shootin tops off standard size pill bottle ,sited in perfect small game wath out!

Pros
accurate plentty ot power !

Cons
scope is crap,i recomand it be changed 1st thing!

Powerful rifle great accuracy. I am shooting 50 feet for now holding tight groups thinking about buying three more .

Cons
Everyone has been right scope is junk I put a 3x9x40 tasco on Mine now the grouping is tight.

I use this gun primarily for small game hunting and it works great.I put a 3-9x40 scope on it from center point and It works phenomenal the scope that comes with it is crappy I used that as a spotting scope. it drops rabbits and squirrels out to 60 yards with ease. any pellet works. I would

Pros
accuracy weight fps stopping power hunting

Cons
scope that comes with it

I chose this gun to take back my yard's territory from ground squirrels who's tunnels were weakening the integrity of large hillside. After failed attempts of peaceful negotiations to get them to move out, the Gamo Hornet using the RWS Superdome .177 cal pellets were employed. I don't have much experience with scopes as far as quality/features go, but it magnified my target well enough for me to shoot it and once sighted in, the scope hasn't moved out of alignment. Perhaps it is because I used thread lock on the screws as the instructions suggest. In any case, this gun is a true value for the price!

Pros
Price, deadly accurate at 40-50 feet (limited to shooters capacity), comes with a scope that works in the general sense, the scope also comes with covers- one of them is tinted yellow which helped keep the glare out, plus the gun just looks cool and is fairly light to hold.
