Things I liked:First rate quality. Floating barrel and BSA's legendary accuracy. Shoulders very well and is a great hunter.
I like the adjustable power. Try finding a pcp with this much power for the price. I sure hope Gamo doesn't start skimping on the quality now that they own BSA.
Incredibly crisp two stage trigger with lots of adjustments.
Things I would have changed:Offer a synthetic stock option. Keep the Gamo name and inferior quality separate from BSA. Offer an on board pressure gauge, other than that....nothing. What others should know:This gun is loud...not condor loud, but not a backyard shooter. However, it is an incredible long ranger sniper rifle. It has effectively taken small game out to 120 yards (with proper placement). Gun shoots very well with Kodiaks and 18grain JSB's. Comments
The Scorpion does not have adjustable power. Please check the owner's manual, which is linked on this page. Show Other ReviewsCreate an online review and share your thoughts with other customers

Things I would have changed:There is a T10 version that is a 10-shot repeater....but not anywhere near the price this single shot version is selling for. If you can afford $900+, go for the T10 version.
What others should know:OK, I own the .25 caliber Lonestar, but is is a single shot and very similar to the Scorpion except is has the MMC cocking feature instead of the conventional bolt handle. Other than that and the caliber, they are very similar rifles. BSA rifles must be charged to 232 Bar to get the full number of shots, and power start sto fall off below 200 Bar. Because of this, you MUST get a pump that can supply the pressure such as the BSA pump mades by Hills or and FX pump made in Sweden. A standard SCUBA tank falls a bit short in the pressure department. Your pump should be rated to 250 Bar minimum if you own a BSA air rifle. I chose a BSA air rifle over an FX made in Sweden. Why pay more?
