Gamo Wildcat Whisper

[Wolfer]

Well got one great deal on the Wildcat Whisper today that I could not pass up. Cleaned barrel, mounted the cheap plastic scope that came with it, sighted it in at twenty yards and shot three dime size five shot groups honest. Have never had a gun do this before. Have about fifty rounds through it and will shoot more when done posting this. Did I tell you I got a great and I meen great deal on this gun. I have never had a Gamo gas piston gun and reading of the thousands of rounds that others have shot had to get one. Was thinking of a Swarm series but when I saw what I could get the Wildcat for I jumped on it. Great little gun and will up grade the scope in the future but really hate to mess with it the way it is shooting. Chime in if you have like stories with the Wildcat Whisper.Thanks.     Mike

Forgot to mention that I was shooting the cheap Winnie domes from Tractor Supply.     Mike

Gamos are diamonds in the rough. accuracy seems to be the problem seldomly. I have an old style spring whisper that is now smooth and shoots at 12 to 13fpe... silly accurate and easy to shoot. plus they are the easiest rifles to carry afield. 6 lbs seem to be light as air...

I have one and I love it. It was given to me as a birthday present. I didn't want it. I felt bad because the person you got it for me didn't know any better and they got me what they thought would be a present I liked. So I'm out of the included 4x cheap scope and used some leftover cheap pellets that I had. The only ones I had in 177 I think they were daisy and the gun shot really well.  So I took it and put a hawk 3 to 9 on it and it shot amazingly good. I got better pellets for it ( jsb,h&n,crosman box domed) , opened it up, cleaned it up and put a 10x 50 UTG fixed powered scope on it and added weight to the butt stock with lead BB shot and I also installed a GTR ( I don't think that is right) trigger I'm not sure what it was but it worked out amazingly well. I have five other break barrels, all heavily modified, and I can't get one to shoot as good as this one that I didn't want. I don't even like the stock or the feel nearly as well as my other guns. But when I get out and shoot on my 70-yard range the one that I can consistently hit Bic lighters and marbles with is this gamma whisper.

Just got a whisper fusion mach1  and so far so good.

Only things I found I don't like

Cat trigger ... I was expecting a bit more from it but???

Whisper muzzel thing ....  It's a 2 price inner baffle and I had to remove it( it's easy) cause  a cleaning patch fibers some how stuck in the seam or something
And it was dirty as well.

So be careful of the thin plastic "" fins" you don't snag on them or break or distort then cleaning
I seen some one Ina reviews or u Tube claim the pellets hit them and busted them up.

For all the gamo scope complaints mine doing good so far only thing is focus at 8-9 power don't focus well. To my eyes???

Any glad you seemed to of avoided the lemon and happy shooting

[Wolfer]

Hope that there are more Gamo Wildcat Whisper shooters out there. Chime in.     Mike

[A moron]

Man, sorry just a gamo shooter don't qualify!  I tried.

[Wolfer]

You qualify, just wanting to get more Gamo feed back. Really don,t care which gun you have.     Mike

[A moron]

It's like you show up with a gamo and it gets cold...lol

I had an older hunter 220 if my memory is right. I got it maybe around 2002 and only had it for a year before I deployed. I wasn’t a precision guy back then but I remember it was good enough that I don’t have hostility towards it like other brands I’ve shot. My accu was spot on. I sold it though and gave the guy my record book of all the groups I shot as I usually save all targets for each gun. My new CFR is getting dialed in. Today I shot .312 I think at 20 and half half inch horizontal and inch and half vertical at 50 but think I can do better with it. I too am now looking for a break barrel gamo. I think there’s a whisper silent cat that I hear good things about.

[A moron]

Gamo been having that bone collector on sale for 120 . May check gamo USA sale page.  Shipping is about 11 bucks for me fromthem .

I wanted a model with open sites  most gamos don't .  At least if the scope boinks I can shoot without untill...

[270windude]

The CFR is on sale too for 199 and I found one place that still has the accu for 199 which imo is a better deal.

[A moron]

I seen that cfr deal .it's a underleaver.
 If you don't mind that.

Looks like a guy can find some gamo deals . This mach1 was 200.

[Wolfer]

What would you upgrade for a scope on this gun? I have my idea but would like to here others.       Mike

[A moron]

Funny , I was just looking over and researching scopes .

Man you could take all suggestions  and read reviews and there all pretty much the same.
Any way if I had YOUR money that hawke has that airmax line thats a just made for air guns , there a tad pricey   ,but not so bad overall

Then you got the regular suggestion scoped like utg, and all in the -100 buck area.

In the end you see a 25% say there's was bad and 75% day works to great...lol.

So to me it looks like find a popular recommended by users pick one with the features you like ( retical ,mag power and what not ) buy it try it and hope you did not get the lemon.

That's about how I'm summing it up .

Not to say it the greatest but that gamo scope I got with!one is holding its own so far . It's got it's issues  and you can tell it's cheap but it's hitting well to 50 yards with near 2000 pellets so far.

But I'm still keeping my eyes peeled for a replacement if or when it does spit it's bits

[Wolfer]

The gun is so light and pleasant to shoot and carry I would like to keep size and weight down. Straight 4power AO would be great. Maybe the winchester 4AO. Bug buster? If you come up with more cheap,light ,clear scope ideas let me know.    Mike

[A moron]

I don't see anything wrong with any of your choices.

It sure looks like no matter what you go with will you get one that works and lasts or one the in 200 shots it's shot.

Them ones you listed I'd try and use if one had a sale or deal when I had to buy and I got them on my want list.

For a straight power the ugt 4x seems solid and utg brand is liked .

I think the Winchester is a daisy witch is gamo  the utg bugbuster is poplure and recommended or praised  I see , but I don't need or care for battery use scopes ( less gimmick= less issues )

I'm just seeing no what you choose it's coming down to is the one you choose going to hold up and last.

What I'd ask is what brand has easy warrantee. If it is a lemon  and you needed satisfaction

[A moron]

Just to add use the forums scope gate and you'll see plenty of suggestions and all on scopes from guy's posting ona what should I get or what's the best ,ect...

I have a swarm magnum.  Really like it but wish it had iron sites.  The inner baffles broke on the first day of shooting when a pellet must have tumbled or doing some weird gyroscopic thing. A few more pellets clipped and I had to use a Dremel tool to kind of smooth out the hole and then shake all the plastic out.  That was a bummer but otherwise the gun shoots fine.  I wish I had one without the suppressor on the barrel because it isn’t very durable.

That's sad  seen stories like yours with that.

I got a mach1 but there 2 roll pins I pop out and remove the baffel end cap and then remove that baffel for service/ cleaning.  So your mag don't have that?

I got a cleaning patch stuck in it and thought , darn, but seen it was a easy remove and service
