| You'll be ready to hunt small and medium-sized game and vermin with the Gamo Whisper! Plus, the non-removable noise dampener reduces the report (noise) up to 52%, which means you won't spook game while hunting. But, just because the Whisper is modestly priced doesn't mean you give up anything in the accuracy department! You'll be hitting your targets and making one-shot kills time after time. This just might be the ideal spring gun! We measured the cocking effort with the metal spring, and it was 35 lbs. (Gamo lists it at 30 lbs.). Velocity will vary depending on the type of ammo you use: .177: 1200 fps with PBA, 1000 fps with lead .22: 950 fps with PBA, 750 fps with lead (our tests show 720 fps with 14-grain pellets) Click on the AMMO link for recommended pellets and the ACCESSORIES link for safety glasses, targets & more. The owner's manual states that the scope is mounted and bore-sighted. It is not. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Reviews summary Gamo Whisper
Things I liked:I enjoy shooting this rifle - it has good power, and honestly is quieter than other rifles I have had in the past. I don't know if its the advertised 52% quieter but its definitely not as noisy. Also, I think the rifle is reasonably priced considering the power of the gun, decent sights, and durability of the rifle. All in all, if you're thinking about buying this gun, I can tell you I'm happy with mine. Things I would have changed:Not a fan of the scope/mount but in this price range, I don't expect much. Easy to swap for a better scope/mount or use the open sights. What others should know:Might want to consider the nitro piston version if you like the gun and don't mind spending a little more. Things I liked:I got my whisper around 4 years ago when they wer still fairly new with their noise dampener. It was the first airgun I had ever seen like this. Naturally I had to have one. The week after I got it I used it to rid my mom's stocked fish pond of a nasty muskrat problem. I was having a tough time getting the scope to stay put so I finally tore the one piece mount off the gun and used the iron sights to get the job done. Since then my gun got new rings a laser and a flashlight. I'm hoping to get a chance this summer to hunt with it again. Things I would have changed:Nothing other than the one piece scope mount. I'm not a fan. What others should know:Well built gun. Take care of it and it will last a long time.

Things I would have changed:Trigger adjustment screw seems pretty useless. In order to get to it without risking stripping it required removing the trigger guard. Turning it didn't seem to really do anything. Also, the safety placement seems really odd to me. I'd much prefer a button or lever that is more conventional.
What others should know:Accuracy and consistency are top concerns for me. The Whisper excels in that way. I get reliable 6" groups at 50 yards using H&N Field Target Trophy 8.64 grain round nose
