    By RONALD from USA on 2008-09-08 11:38:10

    Things I liked:Very much fun to play with. I have reused the plastic shells over and over again with various loads--mostly 8 shot instead of 9--and cotton etc. to keep things together.
    Things I would have changed:Price <sigh>. (But whatcha gonna do about that except whine?) I remain very glad that Gamo decided to design and produce the Viper Express for me to play with.
    What others should know:As I have said, you can reload the little plastic shells with just about anything you want--use your imagination!

    Size/Shape Distribution:5

    By Dennis from USA on 2008-02-11 20:39:34

    Things I liked:GAMO shows a 12 inch pattern at ten yards. I found this to be consistently true so far. Each shell holds about two dozen # 9 shot. I found about 27% hit inside a three inch circle on each shot at a gallon jug full of water. The shot dimpled the inside back of the jug at ten yards.
    Things I would have changed:I would like to see a couple sizes of shot available. I would also like to see the rear translucent cup plugs made available so a person to experiment with different loads for different targets and distances.
    What others should know:Very similar to my .22 target with rat shot loads. Obviously less velocity, but still sufficient within 10 yards for soft targets and 5 yards for snakes and such.

      Things I liked:These are the best varmint ammo in my arsenal. I can pop a chipmonk at 50 feet with no problem. Pyramid haz the best prices on this ammo.
      Things I would have changed:Nothing, perhaps make a reload kit for the shells...
      What others should know:This is worth the investment!

      Things I liked:They are re-loadable and for their size do pack a pretty good punch.
      Things I would have changed:I'm still disappointed that Gamo has decided not to market reloading components for these shells.
      What others should know:Short range for any effective penetration. Most but not all of the shot will penetrate two layers of cardboard at 10 feet so you need to be close. Still a lot of fun. Try shooting a full water bottle with the cap removed.

      Things I liked:they load easy in my shaddow express. I haven't had much luck hunting with it though. I doubt this is an efective hunting round. it's more a novelty than anything else. These are what I use if I have nothing else to fire, and that's not likely. I stay well stocked.
      Things I would have changed:for the price, there needs to be more per pack.
      What others should know:these are a good novelty thing for gamo's shotguns, which I really don't take too seriously.

      Things I liked:That they are available at all, and they work better than pellets at short range on squirrels and other pests. Of course they're meant to be used only on Gamo's two air shotguns, since their barrels aren't rifled. Don't use these in your .22 rifle.
      Things I would have changed:We all wish they were less expensive, but if ever there was a niche product, this is it. It would be nice if Gamo would sell those white plastic rear seals for reloading, but I doubt that they ever will, since they will need to recoup their manufacturing cost on the shells.
      What others should know:The rear seal is a white plastic disc with seals that extend behind it, like an extruded can lid. While a Q-tip tip might work for reloading, something that seals better would probably push the shot out with greater force. I'll try foam board, which is thick enough to seal properly. I'll see if it's possible to make the seals by working the front end of a shell casing back and forth against the foam board. The front seal is molded into the shell casing, with three breakaway tabs. A Q-tip tip would work as a reloading replacement here, or another foam board seal would work. I took one shell apart and found that it contained 17 pieces of #9 shot. I'll try the same amount (by weight) in #8 shot, as well.

      Things I liked:I like how this shot shell is moderately effective on birds in close range (around ten yards), and how like a shotgun, you don't have to be the best shooter in town to hit a small target (i.e mouse, sparrows, and snakes). In summary I would use this (with my viper express of coarse) like I use 22 caliber rat shot, if anything this might be better since this uses #9 shot vs #12 shot.
      Things I would have changed:The price....Wow, I mean, this is highway robbery, I have no idea why this thing is so expensive, it's like buying silver plated bullets...I mean come on, why would pellets be cheaper and come in larger quantities yet this ammo is mostly plastic, yet it's way more expensive. I think the should be around a penny each at the most. Real 22 ammo is less than a penny a piece, yet air gun ammo is like gold.
      What others should know:Besides the fact that only one air 'shotgun' is compatible with this ammo...Nothing else.

      Things I liked:It's great for shoting small things.
      Things I would have changed:I think the price is a little to high. It should be five dollers.

      Things I liked:Very unique product, use it to control pests, including carpenter bees when you don't want collateral damage.
      Things I would have changed:MORE SHOT SIZE OPTIONS! (like #12) and plugs to help reload. I would rather purchase than reload, but I would at least like the option to reload (need plastic plugs, will try to cut off ends of plastic pellets)
      What others should know:Great product, but limited range, which is fine if you understand this.
