Description
Awesome power is what you need to hunt successfully, and the Gamo Big Cat 1250 has it!
From the all-weather synthetic stock to the bull barrel, these rifles are bound to please any shooter who aims to take game. For more precise shooting and to get the most accuracy from the gun, our Big Cat comes with an upgraded 3-9x40 scope and mount.
The Monte Carlo buttstock has a raised cheekpiece on each side, making this gun ideal for right- or left-handed shooters. It also has the Shock Wave Absorber (SWA) to reduce felt recoil. Shoot either lead pellets or PBA ammo to attain your hunting goals. Of course, you don't have to hunt with the Big Cat. These are fun plinkers and will give you hours of shooting pleasure.
Your Gamo Big Cat may come with a 1-piece mount or a 2-piece mount. Gamo uses them interchangeably. Both types will securely hold your scope in place.

The lightness in weight. Feels well balanced. Easy to hold and shoot. Price. Good medium power.
Things I Would Have ChangedNothing. I knew how it was equipped when I purchased this.
What Others Should KnowThis Big Cat 1250 is .177 caliber. Bought this rifle abou 3 years ago, still equipped as bought. Very accurate. Five shots with Crosman Premier Hollow Points 7.90 grains averaged 899 fps. Five shots with Crosman Premier Point Hunting 7.40 grains averaged 942 fps. Five shots with Crosman Premier Ultra Magnum Domes 10.50 grains averaged 751 fps. The weather temperature was 45 degrees at 200 feet above sea level. Consistently hitting 2 and 3 inch targets easily, with room to spare, from 80 and 90 foot distances. For the 10.50 Ultra Magnums I do have to make about 2-3 clicks elevation adjustments or 1 mildot to compensate for the heavier grain weight. No flyers, no deformed pellets. I am not concerned about weighing and grouping pellets that are maybe off by a 1/10 of a grain. I take the manufacturers claims. As I stated above this air rifle is equipped with what was in the box as purchased. No loc-tire, I just check all screws before shooting. I recommend this rifle. Woodys World.
Weight and feel of rifle, accuracy
Things I Would Have ChangedScope quality, trigger pull
What Others Should KnowExtremely pleased with purchase, the value for dollar is great! I am making quarter size groupings at 30 yards now that break in period is done. I have been using crosman pellets as the Gamo seams to like them better than their own for consistent shots. Groupings are made from a bench but I can consistently stay tight at a standing position. Trigger pull is a little heavy but getting used to it. Scope as always could be better but for the money, this gun is awesome,

What Others Should KnowThis really is a good shooter. I did not purchase it from Pyramyd Air, because I found a clearance sale somewhere else. This .177 is the most accurate Rifle I have shot thus far. I was shooting dime size groups at 25 yards. No joke. I own a Umarex Octane, a Gamo Whisper Fusion Elite, a Walther Terrus, and a cheaper Crosman Air rifle. This has the accuracy of the Walther Terrus. Once you get use to the trigger pull (which really isn't that bad for such a cheap rifle) you will be driving nails with this gun. I got mine is .177 and I am currently shooting H&N Baracuda Match 4.50 head size, 10 grain pellets. This gun would literally almost be perfect, with an upgraded trigger. Gamo have always been great air rifles in my experience.
Gun seem to be fine.
Things I Would Have ChangedScope is not good! Can't get gun to group tight. Shoots all over the place.
I like the consistency of the shot placement. My shots are always in a nice tight Group. I have shot at four ground hogs and three of them are no longer with us.
Only minor adjustment needed to scope on first shooting... Easy to load and fun to shoot...
Things I Would Have ChangedTwo for one would be great.. ha ha Nothing needed.
Value for money
