Guest's Review of Gamo Rocket
26th Nov 2008
Overall Rating
- Value for money
Great Consistancy
Heavy Grain 9.5 - 9.6
Excellent Energy Transfer
Hits like a Glaser .22
Bad Points
Some Pellets have deformations (like most that you buy)
Small quantity in can (150ct)
Not Supersonic (can be a good thig if you prefer "stealth" when shooting
General Comments
As for the price to amount comparison I buy my rockets at Walmart for 3.99 a tin/can and compared to the 80 count Gamo Armor Piecring or the Gamo PBA Raptors at 100 count priced at 9.99 each, that is a good deal that I get for the Rockets. Was looking into the "Hydra-Shoks" (Crosman Destroyers) but after testing the Kinetic Transfer , Accuracy, and Penetration at 30 yards the Gamo Rockets came out indefinately on top, the Rockets penetrated 7 inches of clear candle wax with a entry point of 5.5 - 6mm, Accuracy was at 3 rounds 30 yards grouping of 6mm difference. The Crosman Destroyers did create a slightly larger entry point at 6.5mm but accuracy was about 1.5 inches at 30 yards with 3 rounds, and only penetrated 4 inches of wax. All tests done with a Crosman G1 Extreme with mounting support & 3-9x44mm R/G Leapers Scope zeroed in for location, and 9-10 grains. I will be testing these out on some squirrels that have been terrorizing my cousins Pecan Farm in Georgia and will write up an AAR (After Action Report) for all to read.
