Gamo Red Fire, .177 Reviews

Effective on feathered and soft skin creatures like bunnies and squirrels . Good penetration but falls short compared to the Hornet or metalmag.Good value for money. Prefer the .22 over the .177

A bit more weight would be a plus

Work very well with all my air guns! My Diana 34 Loves them!

Same as everything else, Price! But not at the cost of changing the pellet.

For some strange reason won't fit in a Stoeger s-3000c???

these pellets are the only one that shoot good from gamo fusion gen3 rifles.i like the 10 shot mag,make sure to buy enough pellets you will fire 50 shots in no time.

Gamo red fire pellets need to made better the tips come off in the tin about 8 or per tin.

They fly straight definitely worth buying hit hard easy small game nailer I liked them

Metal tip

Pretty good for the wildcat

Accuracy, uniformity and lethality. Performs well in my Gamo Hunter Sport.

Tins of larger quantities and include the weight, in grains, on the tin.

These load consistently well because of their uniform sizes. Best pellet offered by Gamo.

Cost, accuracy.

Wish a little heavier so i can run in my Gamo magnum. Would love a 9.5-10 grain pellet.

Loved the Red Fire in my Benjamin BB, and bought 4 cans for my new Gamo magnum. Only to find out they are too light and break the sound barrier. This affects accuracy and NOT BYF. I now use the Gamo Rockets which are a 9.5 grain pellet.
I still run the 22 cal RF pellet in my 22 Magnum.

Quality is nice

Print the length of the pellet. Doesn't fit in the Umarex Airgun Pellet Mag., 8-rd,... Umarex Airgun Pellet Mag., 8-rd

Accurate at close range, but not very accurate beyond 20 yards if you are using a high FPS gun. I gave an average review just because they are probably fine for anybody with a slower FPS. The Magnum is rated at 1650 FPS with similar lightweight pellets.

A heavier pellet option with this design.

With the Gamo .177 Magnum, these are not the best pellet for such a high FPS rifle. They are so light that they tumble and accuracy suffers at anything beyond about 20 yards. They are also very loud. My pellet gun sounds like a regular firearm with these because they leave the barrel much faster than the speed of sound. If you have a .177 with high FPS rating, get a heavier pellet to slow it down and it's less likely to tumble. It will also decrease the sound by about half. I wish I would have read a review like this before I purchased them.

Price

Make sure the diameters are all the same trere is done variation from pellet to pellet and can to can

Accurate and dependable, awesome pellets.

Price but nothing else.

Both 177 and 22 calibers work great

Excellent product, accurate and fit my .177 cal rifle perfectly in the chamber.

Nothing

High quality and accuracy.

Easy to put into the Gamo gen2 10x clip. They are pretty accurate

Actually have some penetrating power. The Crossman 7.9 hollow points did way more damage to the wood backing. These did very little

Hope they work better against the varmints than they did against the wood, which was nothing. Some did not even penetrate the wood at all and the red tips were just laying on the ground still pointed and looking like they did prior the shot, minus the hallow point behind which was only 1/2 way into the wood. Quite disappointing, I was expecting a lot more from these.

Extremely accurate. Groups routinely consist of one hole at 20 yards using an RWS 48 from a bench. I've tried lots of brands/types of .177 pellets: cheap/expensive, heavy/light weight, different tips, etc. and the Gamo Red Fire are the most accurate in my RWS 48. Not sure about varmint stopping power, but for target shooting this is the best high velocity pellet I've tried. Consistent sizing. Makes a perfectly round hole in paper targets. Easy to load in poor lighting conditions. They look cool too.

A bit pricey, but worth it.

Light, high velocity pellets usually aren't very accurate. Gamo Red Fire is the best blend of accuracy/velocity I've found in a .177 pellet.

wonderful for a break barrel or a single shot rifle, not the best for a repeater or a rotary mag like hte umarex ruger 1022 co2. that ruger is my squirrel hunter and pest remover and i use gamo lethal init. these are my go to pellet for all my gamo and umarex break barrel and single shot guns. great performance and superb penetration.

better side skirts and maybe an alloy mix. they bend and defore in the rotary mag of my ruger making them useless. break barrels love this tho.

nope, great pellet that sucks in repeaters but is in the top 3 pellets for break barrel.

Did not preform in my gun

They shoot fairly accurate and load easy enough fancy plinking pellets

Maybe reduce the lead collar around the poly point giving it more of a piercing point.

Using a Gamo Maxxim Hornet at 20 yds. they only piss off the squirrels not enough penetration

Accurate and deadly on small game. Quality pellet and very uniform in size.

More pellets per tin for the price.

So far these have been very accurate and consistent. I have gone through 300 so far

nothing, good quality, very few have damage

Good pellet, wish you could buy tins of these with more in them like 300-400 instead of the 150.

Accurate and a solid kill shot - heart or head on squirrels. Buries game, drops, and no exit! Light for wind? I switched to Gammo pro-magnums -.177 on a light wind day.

Heavier? Not sure. As I am one years experienced here and into this with a G2 Whisper!

Pricey but for 200 pellets worth it! Your first varmint kill shot will have you a return customer.

I used these pellets in the Daisy powerline 880 shadow kit and worked way better than people say about them. They are dead on accurate so I will be buying more these are my favorite pellets. They will work for pest control and hunting but when you go hunting I would not use on anything bigger than a raccoon with a head shot. Extremely accurate at 15 yards.

Nothing

A little expensive for plinking because you only get 150 pellets
