Good Points: Good handling.
General comments: Does not group well when my old pump daisy can drive tacks.
Pattern worsens with PBA ammo. Tried lead and is more accurate but still not great.
Would not feel confortable hunting due to poor accuracy.

I bought this gun last week and it hasn't given me any problems. I can shoot squirrels from 35 yards, accurate everytime. I love this gun!

I got this air gun for Christmas and is by far one of the best gifts I have ever gotten. Very accurate and powerful.

I was shooting a target in front of cinder blocks and took chunks out of them with the PBA pellets. Good power!!

It is a pretty good deal for the money. I use my gun almost everyday it is a cheap, convenient hobby. The hunter sport is a practical way to control unwanted pests around the farm.

This rifle would be a great candidate for a good open sight of some kind. I have found that many of these somewhat inexpensive break open rifles with good open sights are equal or superior in accuracy to the scoped versions. With the natural limitations of humane kills to approx. 25 yards with the 177 pellet, open sights are of no handicap to the shooter. When shooting paper the scopes are only of value to see the shot placement but do not seem to increase the inherent accuracy potential and can ...

The Gamo Hunter Sport .177 Combo 3-9x40 is a nice gun but bad scope as it started to lose its power after 500 shots.

As I read in another review, do not shoot this type of air rifle by resting the forestock on a steady rest as you would a normal rifle. If you wish to use a rest hold the rifle normally and rest your hand on the rest. I thought something was wrong with the weapon at first, 4" group at 35 yards! After I saw the review about not working well off a bench rest I went back and tried again shooting as I suggested above; 3/4" groups at 35 yards. Plenty good for popping local varmints.

I purchased the hunter sport combo to replace my Crosman G1 extreme with the cheap plastic stock that broke and I am very satisfied. the cocking, and firing are both very smooth functions of this air rifle. It's also very comfortable to shoulder and sight. The BSA scope seems to be of excellent quality. Overall I am very satisfied.

The Gamo Hunter Sport is an overall great pellet rifle. It has the power to go through 3 pellet cans and the accuracy to hit, if you do YOUR job, 3 shot 1/4" groupings at 25 yards with RWS Superpoint Extras standing up. You should NEVER expect the scope that any pellet rifle comes with under $200 to actually last. I already had a BSA 2-7x32 AO Air Rifle Scope so I just put that on and it is even more accurate with that! I highly recommend getting that scope for this rifle because it is fairly in ...

I bought this gun because I wanted to move to a higher power rifle with a scope included. I chose Gamo because I absolutely love the quality and workmanship of their rifles. I ordered the gun from Pyramydair.com and the scope was included.
At first, when I saw the quality of the gun I was greatly pleased. The wood is excellent quality and the barrel and scope are also excellent quality. The scope that came with it is a BSA 3-9X40. The only problem I had was sighting in the scope. But ...

Only had the Gamo Hunter Sport for a couple days, 100150 rounds so far.
Very accurate rifle shooting off a sand bag I've had 5 shot groupings of 12" @ 25 yards and sub 34" groupings at 35 yards.
I have shot many rifles who claimed to be 1000 FPS and could never get the penetration that I'm getting with this rifle into soap.
The gun isn't dieseling I have not had a chance to chrone it yet but it definitely goes "supersonic" with PBA pellets. Will keep abreast of how the gun handles as ...
