Reviews summary Gamo Hunter Elite
Things I liked:This air rifle is very powerful, I love the fit and finish. I think some people might object to the weight, but Im a big guy and I like it. It really feels like a real rifle. The scope is not worthy of the rifle so I replaced it with a leapers 3.9x50 this thing is dead on target. Things I would have changed:higher grade scope Things I liked:Good looks, well designed. With the included scope (which is excellent) this is a tackdriver of an air rifle. Like others have said, it takes a while to break in. After several hundred shots, this rifle delivers at long range-think consistently hitting a bottlecap at 50 yards.
Cocking is easy.
In general the gun has a very balanced, precise feel. Things I would have changed:The trigger is an obscenity. Get an aftermarket trigger if you want to even begin to tap the potential of this rifle. What others should know:This rifle takes quite a while to break in. Give it time!! It is well worth it. Pellet-wise I get the best results with Crosman Premier Lights....for some reason this rifle doesn't do well with any of the others I've tried. Above all else DO NOT use the PBA ammo in this rifle!!! I did, and within 4 months the mainspring broke. That stuff is bad medicine, and besides, it is capable of zero accuracy. If you're looking to shoot at long range (50yds+) with accuracy, this is the rifle for you. Of course it won't reach out to 100yds, but you will be surprised at what it can do if you give it some room. Just remember...NEVER, EVER use the the PBA ammo.

Things I would have changed:The trigger is not solid, but pressed steel. I would give it a better, solid "real" trigger. Trigger pull is fine, but I just like the feel of cold hard solid steel.
What others should know:If you are looking for a versatile, accurate hard hitting springer at a great price, buy it. It's great for anything from short to medium range target shooting to dispatching small pests at up to 40+ yards.
