Got to love the gamo big cat lots of stopping power. I've had mine for about a year now and the body list keeps getting bigger.I've dropped tons of english sparrows , piegions , grounds squirels and lots more. Its the most accurate pellet gun I've got .I also own a beeman rs2 very strong but the gamo big cat has given me more trophies then the beeman so that's why I prefer the big cat 1200.
THANKS EVERYONE AND GOOD HUNTING BE SAFE!!!!!!
Pros:The power is amazing its pretty light not hard to brake barrel accurate affortable dependable. Hope this helped out anyone thinking about getting this animal man handling beast.Cons:The gamo scope it came with had a defect to it I would set the elevation and windage to the max and it did not even move the crosshair a bit other then that hands down great gun thank gamo. |

This is a great gun! I spent half of an hour trying to scope it in, with little hope. I went inside and put on a crosman scope I had purchased for $50 and sighted it in within 10 minutes. It shot straight through the wood I was using as a backdrop for the target!!! Very powerful. While sighting it in I dropped a crow!
Pros:Power and noise.Cons:scope, just replace |

Awesome Rifle!

When I first got this pellet rifle on my birthday, I was really excited! The next day I went out and shot the rifle at a target. I was just high about four inches. I took it down five clicks. I shot again and was still about an inch too high. So I took it down two clicks. I shot and the pellet was about three inches off. But, the reason it did that was because the wind had blown hard. The wind stopped and I shot again. Boom, I was right on target. I took it out hunting. Plus, it comes with platinum ammo and use that because it is accurate. I used master point pellets to sight in the rifle. I shot a crow with it and killed it. I love this rifle. It is not that expensive for the quality and it has and the power. If you would rather hunt squirrels, rabbits, and ground hogs with a pellet rifle, this would be one of the ones you would want. I really enjoy this rifle. If you are looking for a nice pellet rifle, this would be the one you want for its quality, power, accuracy, and price. It is a very nice pellet rifle, and GAMO shows that.
Pros:I love its quality, killing power, accuracy, and price.Cons:Its scope is okay, but not the best. It's barrel is hard to cock at first. |

I have tested this air rifle with my crony F1 with 15.43 gr Gamo Match pellets avg-600 FPS=12.33 ft pounds, and with 9.4 gr Gamo Platinum pellets avg -875 FPS=15.98 ft pounds. Accuracy is good with the heavy Match pellets but very poor with the lightweight platinum pellets. The lighter pellets will also loss energy very quickly, I bought this rifle to hunt rabbits and smaller game. I am very disappointed with the misleading claims on speed made by Gamo. I will not use this rifle for hunting which is what I bought it for, due to it being underpowered for my intended purpose. I won't chance wounding game due to lack of either power or accuracy. If you are looking for a plinker to practice with, it doe's shoot well with the heaver Match ammo. If you are looking for a rifle to hunt with look elsewhere.
Pros:Accurate with match ammo.Cons:Underpowered for hunting Poor accuracy with light fast ammo |

Got the Big Cat delivered by FedEx (earlier than expected, nice job!) in the evening. Dialed in the scope the next morning. Bagged two squirrels before lunch. Both went down on the first shot, so my accuracy rate thus far is 100% on game and 100% on targets as well. After about 50 rounds put through it and playing around with the rifle, I do believe it'll stay that way for some time, if not very close to it.
This rifle is extremely accurate when properly sighted in, provided the shooter does his/her part when firing.
If you're looking for something to hunt small game wtih, this is definitely a solid choice. As others have said, the stopping power is amazing. The first shot I took after sighting it in, I slammed a pellet right into a squirrel's lung and you could literally hear the pop from 35 yards out, when it impacted. I was aiming for the neck on that shot, so I adjusted one click and it's been dead on since. My freezer is gonna be full in no time.
Pros:Look, feel, and construction. Stopping power. Ease of use. Perfect for small game.Cons:Lack of iron sights - not a deal breaker in any way, though. |

I am not to much of a small game hunter, and I usually use lower FPS air pistols. The Gamo big cat is great for a higher powered target rifle, with the .22 caliber it is extremely accurate with the right rounds. Buyers should definitely consider getting the tin rounds to help with accuracy, and to get the maximum power out of the rifle.
the one downside to the rifle is it is very loud, but it is so worth the trouble.
Pros:Good kick easy to operate. very nice scope for the rifle. smooth trigger action.Cons:fairly loud rifle. |

Very nice rifle ,but it does have a lot of polymer parts that aren't going to break but it sort of feels cheap. It has a lot of stopping power.

I got a Beretta elite 2 and that was alright, however, this was the main "package" and I couldn't be happier about it. The gun has a satisfying crisp pop when it shoots. The gun itself looks nice..... enough pleasantries... The range is pretty good considering how cheap it it. The glass bottle menace never stood a chance. This thing will not doubt eat a squirrel for breakfast. I got some hollow point 22's and I'm semi-scared of this thing. My last bb rifle (.117) shot at point blank gave me a wussy blood bruise. This thing would really hurt. I feel for the small game behind this barrel once the snow stops and I hit the forests. This gun was easily worth it considering the price.
My only complaint was lack of iron sights. I am slightly po'd it didn't have them, the scope is mediocre (what did you expect?) but it does the job.
If your looking for a cheap (in price) pellet gun to have a good time with, this would be it. Totally recommend this gun considering price and performance. I've had a blast with it and I will continue to do so. Also, this site has great prices (I cross referenced), so this is where to buy it.
Awesome gun. Can't verify the speed, but it goes through a glass bottle at 50 yards and then travels through a 1/3 inch wooden backstop... gonna need a new one hehe.
Very worth it.

I went browsing around for the best price/performance squirrel killing gun, and this is my ultimatum. I wanted the stopping power, I wanted the penetration, and I wanted the ease of use. The scope has been tricky to sight, but I got it really close. It took a long while, but everything's turned out completely fine. The gun is soooo strong. It kicks a lot, and you legitimately feel the power in your hands. The friction from the pellets being shot at such high speeds causes legitimate smoke. I've deduced that the oil on the pellets cause this. Great shooter overall, I feel like the price is right, and the power is really great.

Holy frick
I really underestimated this gun. While trying to sight it in the gun was able to kick back and cut my eye brow. I was holding the gun loosely and I was 2" back. I have never known a pellet gun to kick and wouldn't have believed that a pellet gun could if you told me. Still need to fine tune the sight but this is easily the most powerful pellet gun I have ever seen. This is the first week and will edit after a few months with the gun.

Nice Gun, Great Price

In short. Well Worth $140.
Very plastic feel to stock, but other than that, it feels very sturdy.
Surprisingly easy to cock.
No significant kick either, as I understand others with these velocities tend to have.
I had heard the .177 version is fairly loud, and was surprised that this is quieter than my CO2 BB pistol.
Scope is more than sufficient for < 50 yards which based upon what I see is effective range of .22 pellets.

Answer:
This is actually a pellet gun. It uses .22 cal pellets. BB's are .177 caliber. BB's will fit in .177 cal pellet guns. The bb's will mess up the rifling in the barrel of pellet guns.By Smittyd from Augusta, GA on December 3, 2011

Answer:
yeah the .22 is a factor to when it comes to small game hunting because the pellet can just go through anythingBy evan from Va on December 15, 2011

Also, what is the biggest thing this could take down a turkey fox racoon coyote?
By Staff on January 7, 2012
Answer:
The big cat .22 is better. It has a lot more knockdown power. We always recommend .22 cal and up for hunting anything bigger than birds, rats etc. for smaller pests .177 cal works just fine.Thanks
