Reviews summary Gamo Viper Combo
Things I liked:The stock looks great & the bull barrel adds to the looks of this air rifle. It is light and can be taken in the field without worry because of durable materials used on it. Power is spot on for any pest bird and most fur covered pest as long as you keep shots within range and hit the sweet spot. Things I would have changed:The Scope and the trigger. I upgraded both on mine and it took this rifle from OK to Great. I will also add the nitro piston to this from PA when I get a chance. What others should know:This is a good rifle but a few upgrades can make all the difference. First GRT III trigger, a very easy and cheap install. Second upgrade the scope to something that can handle the recoil. Third use lock tight. Then skip the PBA ammo and try some of the quality pellets Mine works very well with predator and redfire pellets on pests. Match pellets are great (RWS) inside 20 yds. Heavy round nose pellets are better for longer ranges ( JSB 10.2 grain & Gamo Rocket 9.6 grain). This rifle will take a few hundred rounds to settle in and get best accuracy. I clean the barrel every few hundred shots or so and the accuracy has been excellent. I can keep shots inside a quarter at 20 yards and can hit a 16 oz plastic bottle at 50 yards every time as lonng as wind is calm. I do recommend this rifle. The small upgrades make this an awesome choice. Things I liked:great scope for an air rifle Things I would have changed:gun is a little loud, but you could go with the whisper if that bothers you.

Things I would have changed:when i bought it the scope would allways slide on the rail. i bought a scope stop it didnt seam to help. so i got some advice to put nail polish on the rail then tighten the scope down and let it dry. and problem solved i have it sighted in to where i can hit the same hole in the target at 25 yards.
What others should know:if you own a swamp cooler the gun will probably get a little surface rust it does not affect the performance of the gun at all but just looks a little ugly i got it right where the barrel cracks to load the pellet.
