I have fired 22 rim fire for years. I have five .22s' and none are as accurate as this gun. I have found that pellet guns are fussy as to what ammo they like. As one reviewer on youtube indicated "Crosman premier hollow points seem to shoot the most consistent with this gun." I've only shot about 200 pellets so far but I have not had problems with the scope that others have complained about. I might consider getting a scope with variable magnification. For right now though, it's fine. I got this for $129.00, on sale, which made the gun even better. I'm sure that there are better pellet guns out there, but for the money (even for more money), I am loving it.
Pros
Light
Easy to cock
Accurate

Cons
None so far
I ordered one of these about five days ago. First let me say that the shipping option I chose was 3-5 days. The gun shipped in ONE day and got here the next! I can already say that Airgun Depot is fantastic with customer service. I'll be coming back a lot more. Anyway, about the gun, it got here in perfect condition. Overall looked really nice. I took it out and put some Crosman Destroyers in it and it shot pretty nice. I can already say that the scope needed to be replaced. I already knew that though, as I have about four Gamo's in total and replaced all the scopes. I bought a 3-9x40 and it shot BEAUTIFULLY. It's accurate out to at least 65 yards, and that's the distance I took a squirrel from. It is fairly loud, but who cares right? Anybody reading this: Buy this gun AND a scope for it. You won't be disappointed. (For the record, the scope was only $35.00 so it wasn't bad.) Thanks Airgun Depot!!

Cons

Scope
this gun is amazing, very accurate and not as loud as others, but for the money it is a great gun,i live in the city and my neighbors havent complained yet, i was also hunting rabbits and drop a rabbit from about 45-60 yards away, any kind of pellets work, i use the beemen hollow point .177 pellets its great. the scope isnt so great but its not the worst
Pros
power
quietness
light weight
Cons
scope
Good gun, lousy scope. Trying to sight in the original scope was a nightmare. After replacing it with a tasco, it was sighted in minutes and shooting tight groups at 40 yards. When fired its about as loud as a .22. The stock is sturdy and the butt pad makes holding the gun tight to your shoulder easy. I would recomen loosening the trigger a bit as it puls kinda tight.
Pros
The power and accuracy( once the scope is replaced )
Cons
The scope. It is terrible.
it seems like a perfect gun 1,250 fps is amazing vilocity for a pellet rifle, also the performance and accuracy are persise and accurate, i defenitly recomend it to middle class shooters and for small or mybye midiam game hunting you might kill a deer if you headshot it for instent death thats my reveiw byeeeeeeeeee
Very accurate!
i bought this rifle becuese i live in the mountians a mountain lion was wandering in myy yard so i decided to test out my new rifle on it i shot it and i almost killed it highly recommended for hunters
Question?
Login to ask someone who bought this product.i own this gun and i can’t seem to figure out the best pellet to use with it what do you recommend
asked kieler krchmarDoes this require co2 and if yes, what kind? I'm wanting to buy it as a gift.
asked Brenda from USAThis rifle does not require any CO2, it is powered by a spring that is compressed when the barrel is cocked.
Scott from USAis this gun good for pet control
asked balinWhy are you killing your pets?
Larry from USA1250 feet per second projectiles will take any small game sir.
BRIANThe Gamo 1250 Big Cat is a wonderful rifle, but the 4 x 32 scope that comes on it falls out of adjustment every few shots. What is the best replacement scope for this awesome gun?
asked Frank ClemDoes this gun come with the scope shown, or a different one?
asked BrandonYes it comes with a standard 4x32 gamo scope.
MaxIs this gun ambidextrous?
asked tommyAnyone got a good recommendation on a scope for this gun? The cheaper the better!
asked RolfI put a barska 4x32 scope in mine it was 50$ from optics planet. Holds a zero and extremely clear view with the adjustable objective... Great scope for any Airgun .
Maxwhat would be the largest game to take with the gamo rocket 1250 rifle. i think the crosman hollowpoints shoot the most accurate out of it.
asked shawnHello, You could probably take out a raccoon with this gun if you hit it in the head. Accuracy is the biggest factor in taking out larger game with an airgun.
Scott from USAwould this be able to shoot a squirrel 150yards away with a big scope or should i just get a 22lr for long range
asked johnMost air guns will not get that range including this one.
Steve from USAWhat kind of group can you shoot at 90ft.
asked James WrightA buddy of mine gets 1 inch group off a bench.
ConorWhat do you think of the qulity of the scope? Also the finish of the stock?
asked James WrightYou need to upgrade the scope, and the stock is durable.
Conorim twelve and would like a high power air rifle before i get a real gun is this a good deal for me?
asked BraedenSure if you can cock the barrel.
Conor
