Light weight and accurate. Also packs a punch.
Somewhat heavy trigger pull, poor stock finnishing it scratches very easy.
If you want a great plinker and light hunter this Gamo Sporter 500 is the gun for you!
I love mine despite how many people rip on Gamo this model I think is well worth it. Its like a cheaper R7 only much more powerful. It shoots crosman 7.9 pellets at around 730fps.
I've shot many grackles and squirrels with mine. All kills were from 15yds + and humane. I've mounted a Simmons 4X scope on mine, but I think it's actually more fun to shoot the gun with open sights. At 25yds I can consistantly send shot after shot in the bulls eye. But I also tuned mine greatly so it may have an impact on accuracy. Well if you're looking for a accurate airgun that will last you years and years the Gamo Sporter is what you want!
