10 of 23 Gamo Varmint Hunter HP Reviews
Powerful, not to heavy or to light, design of the stock, likes most pellets I've tried, trigger was good enough right out of the box that I've never made any attempt to ajust it. Balances well.
Things I Would Have ChangedDrop the laser and light. Either put a better scope on it, or sell without a scope, and let the buyer decide what they won't. A way to install a sling like the benjamin trail would be nice.
What Others Should KnowI've had this air rifle about a year and a half now. When I first got it I had the scope that came with it on for about 30 min. and decided it wasn't going to work for me. So I installed a Center Point 4-16x40. A little big, but a lot better. It's very accurate. At 25yards I can shoot dime size groups. At 50 I get quarter size with an occasional flier. That's with 14.3 gr CHP's. My gun by the way is a .22 cal that for some reason you can't get anymore. Was worried about the plastic trigger for a while, but it has proven itself worthy. Don't expect this gun to be quiet. If you live in a rural area your fine. Anywhere else you might won't to find something quieter. The .22 can make a good bit of noise, I can only imagine the crack a .177 would make. This thing can try your patience at first until you learn how it likes to be shot. Mine had me about ready to beat it against a tree. Then I learned it's secrets, and it became my go to gun when I find an unwanted critter in the yard.
Light weight, not PCP (you will not run out out air), break barrel not too heavy, even my daughter can do it. Very good quality made. Like the green color. Very very durable and weather resistant. Shoot it at any condition (rain or shine). Once you've sighted it (it came with scopes, mounts and combination flashlight and laser), after you've pick the best pellet for it, you almost can't go wrong. Take it and your first shot is as good as your last shot (my experience was 1 year later), from the last time you've shot this gun.
Things I Would Have ChangedI wouldn't change anything gun design wise, but a little sanding off the sharp edges from the plastic molded stock can help.
What Others Should KnowI find the Gamo Master Point .22 1.05 g 16.20 gr to be very compatible to my gun. H&N field target .95 g 14.66 gr to be best for my gun. Comparing the price of both, why spend more for the H&N??? I find break barrel very practical. I have several PCP. The inconvenience with the PCP is you have to carry spare tanks of compressed air to have a full day of enjoyment. I get the same blast with my break barrel, especially this Gamo. Buy one for yourself, you will not regret it. I take it with me whenever I go camping. Just like what I said from the very beginning of mu review, YOU WILL NOT RUN OUT OF AIR.
Love the green color of the stock. Overall the gun is great, really has knockdown power. Cocking effort is effortless and pellet speed is good. The new SAT trigger is awesome. The Predator Polymags are the best and most accurate so far. 1/4 groups off of a bench at 25 yards. At 25 yards as soon as you hear the spring release the pellets already hitting target.
Things I Would Have ChangedScope that comes with it sucks. Get a different scope.
What Others Should KnowNot all .22 pellets fit this gun. Beaman crow magnums don't fit. Also Senco Newboy .22 hollow points don't fit. H&N hollow points a no go as well. Not sure why? The Predator Polymags are the best pellet so far. Afraid to purchase different pellets because they may not fit??
I must say this is a great break barrel air rifle very accurate and easy to shoot! I own a hatsan 125 sniper as well and spendmore time shooting my varnit hunter then any other gun I own. this thing loves 16.0 predator polymags at 30yrds it puts one on topof the other! this is by far my favorite air rifle I have right now of the 3 that I own. I would definatly recommend this rifle to anyone.
Things I Would Have Changedbetter scope do away with light and laser.
What Others Should Knowdidn't have to go through shooting a million different pellets to find one that works great for this air rifle.
Shoots hard with lots of penetration. Decent accuracy. Good value.
Things I Would Have ChangedPlastic safety needs to be metal. Offer without scope at cheaper price so you could by what you want. Wish the barrel was solid metal not plastic with a steel liner.
What Others Should KnowAll in all it is a good gun for the money. Great for taking small game, and just shooting in the backyard. It is a bit louder than I expected, it sounds like a framing nailer going off.
Good looking rifle, the flashlight and laser are fun but if you buy a new scope, it will probably not fit. Very powerful and quite accurate for a .22 springer. Light but solid, this is a great/fun rifle to shoot and thanks to the synthetic stock you don't have to worry about scratches.
Things I Would Have ChangedPlastic barrel feels cheap, no sights, so you will need a scope. Stock scope is good for beginners, otherwise it will end up in the trash.
What Others Should KnowRecoil is minimal when using a bipod. I found that the H&N Baracuda Hunter Extreme in .22 are accurate and fast. The stock seems to be beige on the picture, but in reality it is green. If you can, invest in a Picatinny rail - I installed a new BSA scope and I have to check the mounting screws after every 30-40 shots. The stock grooved rails are not the best.
The Stock and Grip are perfect. I'm 6' 200lbs and my hands are pretty normal for my size body....and the grip is perfect. My hand glides into it and feels very "at home" in the grip, I would not change a thing. The accuracy is amazing. I'll shoot through the same pellet hole at fifteen yards with ease......but the scope needs constant adjustment. I've heard horror stories about the previous trigger's, but the new trigger is very smooth....good job Gamo.
Things I Would Have ChangedI would offer the gun without a scope. Sounds like most people ditch the scope right off the bat.....I am doing the same. The Lazer and Light are trinkets that will never be used. The gun is VERY loud, but this is the nature of high powered springers.....maybe do a silicone spring wrap to help mute the spring slap? Maybe offer a Tri-Pod instead of a scope?
What Others Should KnowOverall, I doubt you can find a better gun for the price. Just be aware you will need to buy a better scope if you want to make consistent long shots. The negative comments I've made are probably due to in light of the things this rifle does very well, like if your seat isnt perfect in your BMW....you'll focus on that.
I have own the .177 and .22 models and both of them are very accurate and powerful. The .22 I just got had a bent barrel so I will be requesting a new one but even with the bent barrel, the gun was consistently accurate at 20 and 25 yards. I love the weight, feel, and color of the gun.
Things I Would Have Changedobviously I would opt for a bigger scope but to keep the price lower, the scope works.
What Others Should KnowThe gun is louder than many other springers but if you do not mind a louder cracking noise, then this gun works well.
The Varmint hunter HP is a well made rifle by Gamo nice weight good balance too. The gun shoots very well for a high powered spring air rifle.
Things I Would Have ChangedI did put another scope on the rifle that I purchased from Pyramyd Air. this is a great addition to the Varmint hunter HP. The Leapers 3-12x44 AO SWAT Accushot Rifle Scope, EZ-TAP, Illuminated Mil-Dot Reticle, 1/4 MOA, 30mm Tube.
What Others Should KnowYou know this is a serious air rifle as soon as you cock it!
I Have found it shoots really well with RWS Meisterkugeln Standard .22 Cal, 14.0 Grains, Wadcutter that I also purchased from Pyramyd Air. Buy three get one free!

Accuracy, feel of the stock, the rubber shoulder piece, the power.
Things I Would Have ChangedGet rid of the fluting, better trigger, offer with Nitro piston, scope will need to be upgraded.
What Others Should KnowAnything below 9g for .177 will likely have spotty accuracy. I can now shoot 3 holes in a dime at 15-20 yards with H&N Sport's Crow Magnum. This gun took a little while to break in, but once it was I was shocked at the accuracy for the amount of power you get.
