    Good Points: Good penetration ant hit hard.


    Bad Points: HORRIBLE quality control and shoot like crap out of picky guns.


    General comments: These Gamo Rocket pellets are all over the place in my Gamo Big Cat 1200. Some slide into the barrel no problem and some are such a tight fit i give up and throw them away. They shoot fine in my dad's old Daisy pump but for some reason my Big Cat doesn't like them at all. I can't even consistently get them on the paper at 20 yards. I'm disappointed in gamo for the terrible quality control.

    0.22 cal
    14.5 gr

    An interesting variation on a sabo shot only with a copper bb round embedded in a standard diablo pellet. No plastic shroud to foul the barrel.
    Note as the business end is copper not lead, this is a high penetration, low distortion shot and liable to punch holes straight through stuff that would stop pure lead pellets. Accuracy appears pretty good.

    I posted an earlier review where I gave these pellets a10 but am here to retract that. These had been my favorite hunting pellet until this last batch. Some shot fine and some were so oversized that they were stuck in the barrel wich could damage a pneumatic rifle. I have NEVER witnessed such horrible quality control. I will never buy another tin of these for fear of damaging my pump rifles.

    Gamo Rocket is the best pellet that I can buy locally for small game hunting.I am not a target shooter or plinker so I can only speak for hunting and this pellet outperforms anything on the shelf at Wal-Mart or Kmart in my Remington Air Master 77.At 45 yrds I can hit 3 out of 5 shots in a kill zone the size of a squirrels head.I can consistently kill doves from 50 yrds and grey squirrels from 40,which is my personal limit with a pellet gun(for squirrels) I refuse to use anything else in my Air M ...

    they works good when i used them in my yard was shooting pretty good groups and having fun with them. but i took them hunting one day and shot a chipmunk with them and it run about 20 yds and down its hole.

    i wasnt to happy.

    so they work good might try them with my new bigcat to see how they compare to my new pellets.

    the pellets im using now are jsb predator polymags in .177 dang those things pack a punch like no other and are dead on accurate. but they are $20 for 200. you get what you pa ...

    AAR (After Action Report). I just got back from hunting (Varmint) in Georgia, I mainly used the Gamo Rockets but my longest range kill came from the Gamo PBA Armor Piercing (lighter supersonic version of the rocket) at 98-100 yards. The Rockets in my G1 Extreme from Crosman were highly effective at ranges up to 60 yards, total kill count in 6 hours of hunting was 8 squirrels 5 of them killed within 60-65 yards using the rockets, 1 kill at 100 yards using the PBA Armor Piercing and 2 kills at 15 ...

    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 ...

    Strong pellet shot from my Air Rifle at around 900fsp I took down a squirrle at about 10yds. shot it right through the neck and dropped first shot. so over all a great pellet for anything from Dove to squirrle to Rabbit. I would absolutely get these pellets again.

    OK! I got rid of the AirMaster 77 and bought a Crossman Storm XT. What a difference! These pellets are slightly more accurate than the hollow points I've been using but are probably better for birds (more penetration) than squirrels and rabbits.

    I have a Remington Air Master 77. These pellets won't shoot. I have to poke them out with a wire back into the chamber. I've tried pumping it up extra but no luck. Never had this problem with other pellets. I will need to return them.

    Extreme knock-down power. If you want to shoot something that would normally be hard to crack... this is the pellet you want.

    Killed a robin from 50 yrds. They are accurate and pack a hard punch. They are quite expensive though and thats the only bad point.

    I bought 2 packs of the gamo rockets. i thought they were going to be really good pellets because they were made by gamo. but the first rocket pellet i shot through my pellet gun it jammed up and didn't work...=( i shot a few more and some of them worked really well but others didn't even go 10 yards through my gun...

    I love these pellets this is all I'm going to buy from now on because they're the best pellet I've used. THe Gamo Rocket pellets hit very hard and have a lot of accuracy. The bad point is that you only get 150 pellets per tin

    Excellent pellet that I have found to be very accurate in most of my air arms. It is the most versatile pellet I have found so far. Maintains it's accuracy much farther out than most pellets I have tried. Has also been very consistent from lot to lot, which is not true for many other pellets and /or brands. Even so it may be best to buy as much of one lot as you can afford when purchasing. It is my "go to " pellet when experiencing problematic accuracy in any of my air arms. I highly recommend t ...

    The Gamo Rockets are great pellets. They are quiet, and super accurate.They have incredible knock down power. You should definitely try them.
