Things I liked:The power is incredible; unless im mistaken when i used the ft/lb calculation, this gun is capable of delivering almost 20ft/lbs using a 8.8g crow mag and using the guns listed velocity for lead at 1000fps (will discuss this down below). Accuracy is insane for the price; using the tips and tricks how to hold springers from this site i can attain shots on poker chips out to 50yrds. Fits just like a real firearm rifle; it shoulders well and feels well balanced. It is capable of humanely taking my residential varmints (rabbits, rats, starlings, whatever) out to my propertys limits which is bout 50yrds
Things I would have changed:Lets adress scope creep; id change the scope mount to a weaver/picatinny or at least make an upgrade to that possible. this gun is way more powerful than the scope, id get an AO 3-9x or better. trigger is crap. the hole that allows for the trigger adjustment is poorly located so i drilled a larger better place hole, but why as the trigger adjustment is almost useless, get a grt III trigger.
What others should know:I would actually like to get some chrony data from pyramid or anybody concerning this guns actual potential as i am well aware that 1000fps is probably not a real life speed. Knowing this i assume that the gun will really push 900fps using an 8.8g crow mag. even that data provides nearly 16ft/lbs, this is only 3ft/lbs less than what my beloved benji 392's can generate using rated 685fps using 18.2g crow mag which is about 19ft/lbs and we know that 685fps is not real life speed so the benji will most likely at 600fps generate 14.5ft/lbs. but this is all guess work cuz i dont have a chrony. even so, this gun is very powerful and if u use the right round for the shot, the varmint hunter will please you every time.

Things I would have changed:Scope. First thing I did was change the scope. The gun has more range and accuracy than a 4x scope gives. Get at least a 3 x 9 x 40. Mil dots are great also as it eliminates guess work of the drop on longer shots.
Trigger. I put a GRT on it and it made a world of difference in accuracy. Went from 1/2" groups @30yds to almost hole in hole. 50 yds still 1/2" group. About every 4 or 5 shots I get a flyer. Can be off as much as several inches. Have not figured that out yet.
The laser was useless on the gun. The recoil kept knocking the laser off target. It works great on my .22 whoever.
What others should know:Mine likes RWS superdomes. Most of my shots are 40 + yard shots. At 70yds it will still go through 1/4 plywood. Out to 70yds very accurate with 10 mph or less cross wind. After that it drifts with the wind as much as 1 or more feet @100 yds. with a 15 mph cross wind 2 to 3 feet. You can't ask to much of .177 pellet so no big deal. With a light or no wind it will hit it's taget at 100yds.
I killed my limit this season shooting dove. Most shots were long, out to 70 yds, and I got one shot kills on all but one bird. Great gun for the money especially when you add the GRTIII trigger, well worth the money. I have now shot squirrels, rabbits, crows, dove, starlings and turtles, all with well placed, one shot kills. Great gun for varmints.

Things I would have changed:stock scope is crap
What others should know:This is an excellent value for the money. The stock scope that comes with it is crap though. I would not hold a zero. I changed it to a centerpoint 3-9x32 with red/green illuminated mil-dot reticle. Holds zero fine now. Only had a chance to do short range testing because of the size of my shooting area but the groups at 10 yards are nearly 1 hole with rws super-H point pellets. I put some blue loc-tite on the adjustment screws for the laser and it now holds zero much better. Overall, a great buy. Just needs a better scope.

Things I liked:Laser and light great for possum & racoon pest in my area, great take down power with the PBA Raptor. Easy maintenence and quick on the spot targeting with laser. I have 2 other rifles that i no longer use because this is my all in one, day or night hands down. Nothings better for crows, starlings, racoons and opossums.

I have 2 other rifles that i no longer use because this is my all in one, day or night hands down. Nothings better for crows, starlings, racoons and opossums.
Things I would have changed:I always seem to be sighting in my scope and laser every few days. Not sure if it's due to the gun or scope. Light is ok for closer targets but I would offer a more powerful upgrade. A larger 100yd. varmint light was put on by me and would be a great offer for Gamo to consider.
What others should know:Gamo has definately stepped up and always is a step ahead of the competition. You'll spend more on the PBA pellets but there's no better feeling when your able to take down a varmint on the first shot when a more powerful punch is needed.

Things I would have changed:I'm using the scope it came with - I don't usually use the Gamo scopes but this one is working really well. Changing any Gamo's stock trigger to a GRT-III trigger is a given. There's not much I'd change on this rifle, but open sights would be a nice addition instead of the scope since most don't even bother with the Gamo scopes.
What others should know:I too had an issue with the laser not staying true and it's a common problem with just about any springer due to the harsh recoil. I found a simple solution that's working for myself and others as well. First, change the mount position so the laser sits directly above your scope so it's centered with your receiver. Make sure you have access to the windage/elevation screws before clamping it in. Next, remove the little set screws, clean them and apply some blue loctite to them. Install them, let them cure for 24 hours, then make your sight-in adjustments. The loctite helps add friction to the screws so the laser stays true much longer. Also, make sure the slotted screw opposite of the set screws is well snugged. I've gone hundreds of rounds before having to re-adjust it again, and it's very minimal at that which is a huge improvement from before I added the loctite.

Things I would have changed:The scope really needs an upgrade! I would put a variable power scope, which I plan on doing in the near future, either a centerPoint or a Leaper.
The laser is good when it doesn't wander. For close in hunting ay night the light works great! It needs better pressure switches, both of mine stopped working. The trigger needs an upgrade.
What others should know:It's good small game gun. I wopuld be a great gun if you tweak it with some upgrades.

Things I would have changed:The laser moves around alot from recoil (although I've never had one that didn't). I removed the sighting adjustment set screws and replaced them with M4x10 bolts...now I can easily tune the laser to the scope quickly and easily without tools.
What others should know:Forget the PBA raptors...I found them to be inaccurate...but they are fun to impress your friends with their supersonic crack. If you plan to buy this and use the raptors for pest control in a close neighborhood, forget it and just use a .22...it's almost as loud. With the crow magnums, it's much quieter...the thud of the target is almost as loud as the gun. :)

Have not shot beyond that but I can hit a pellet can close to center everytime at 50yds. I put a Center point 3x9x40 scope on mine. Light is good enough to see eyes out to 30 yds.

Things I would have changed:Scope is just adequate at best. Trigger like most guns in this price range is cheap. Get an after market trigger for better feel and accuracy Laser will only stay on center for one or two shots at best. I took mine off as it was a waste of time.
What others should know:For the money it is a good gun. WIth a tune and different trigger I get consistant shots right at 984 fps with CPHP pellets. For Varmint hunting this is a good gun for those of us who can't afford an air arms price tag

What others should know:I only shot mine about 1200 times till one day the damn thing snapped in half on me because i had the old version without the bottom brace and different receiver cap. Also do not use pba ammo it sucks at acurracy even though it is faster you dont need more velocity the gun is quite fast
I only ONLY use gamo rocket ammo it is a heavy ammo with a copper bead in the tip

Not too heavy, but heavy enough to offer good stability.
Things I would have changed:A bit noisy when shooting. Might like to see something a bit more quiet. Would like to have seen the scope on raised rings and open sights beneath. The pressure switch for the laser went bad about 1 hour into use. Just replaced it with the switch that came on it and it works fine. With the scope sighted in, don't need it anyway.
What others should know:Overall a very good gun and value. Bought this for pest control in an industrial facility. Guys that have other brands actually prefer the Varmint Hunter over their personal guns.

Things I liked:compaired to other airguns i have owned in the passed the varmint hunter has a very good feel about it. The weight of the rifle is formitable and it has an incredibly realistic recoil. I would find this rifle to be a perfect gun for target practise in suburbia. The power of this gun was surprising for the price at point blank with the light pba ammo (crap only good for short range) it went 2/3 the way threw a 2x4 and at about 10 yards threw a racoon. At close range it is very good at taking care of all those unwanted pest around the house the laser was easy to sight in and is great for close range.
Things I would have changed:the scope is crap the flashlight is poitless and the triger has a very slow action to it

Things I liked:Power, Looks, Is quite accurate once you get the scope zeroed in. I can hit something consistently from 75 yards away. Laser sight is easy to adjust to the cross hairs too. Flash light is pretty powerful for its size but I don't see myself using it often.
Things I would have changed:Manuals, pressure switches.

Things I would have changed:Manuals, pressure switches. The gun I have is the fluted barrel version. Comes with pressure switches which I consider useless, but the gun did come with on off buttons on the laser and flashlight which I like. The manual for the scope is actually wrong which would probably solve most peoples scope problems. The elevation is actually on the side and the windage is on top. not visa versa. I found this out after actually looking at the knobs, which have text saying left-----> on the top and up-----> on the side knob.
What others should know:The gun is pretty loud and I'd suggest taking it to a range if your ieven in a suburban area and don't have a few acres. The barrel is incased in a polymer like plastic material so the actual barrel itself is not fluted. The barrel inside the plastic is about an inch and a quarter in diameter.
This gun is incredibly powerful, and can ricochet all over the place when shooting at different targets. So be careful. I'd also suggest using a heavier pellet such as the beeman kodiaks to lower the fps. The pba pellets loose accuracy after about 40 yards due to there light weight but they do rocket out of this gun.

Things I liked:Great amount of power for a break style gun. Accurate at 40 yards.
Things I would have changed:The light is useless -- it only projects about 15 yards.
It would be nice if they could require less force to pump the rifle, but still retain the power.
What others should know:Overall a solid airgun and
