Description
The Gamo Wildcat Whisper Air Rifle features the Gamo Inert Gas Technology (IGT) piston to launch pellets for fast, more consistent shots. You'll notice that gas piston pellet guns are very smooth cocking, they function better in cold weather, and have a longer lifespan than traditional, metal spring powered guns.
With speeds of up to 1350 fps in .177 caliber and 975 fps in .22, this gun is ideal for your small game hunting and pest control needs. And because this gun is outfitted with the Whisper Technology, this ultra quiet rifle is less likely to spook your quarry and more likely to hit your intended target.
Smaller targets are easier to see with the included 4x32 scope.

Light weight balance good a little overated on speed more like 1050 with lead pellets a little disappointed
Things I Would Have ChangedMake sure that lead pellets work at speeds as well as allowy pellets do or. Boost pressure. Still like my blitz
What Others Should KnowThe scope takes a while to adjust still don't have it dialed in yet still 5 inches of center
Actually a great little rifle for the price. Reasonably accurate if you do your part (read below). Should be able to hold 2 inch groups at 50 yards with enough velocity to humanely dispatch small to medium pests. As always, shot placement is key.
Things I Would Have ChangedThe scope that comes with the rifle is not great. I immediately gave it to my child to pretend to be a pirate. Any name brand 22mag type scope would work - I opted for a 4x32 Simmons which ran $35. The trigger is also not fantastic, but workable. This will never be an ultra precise weapon, but is sufficient enough for the tasks it was designed for.
What Others Should KnowMake sure to break in the rifle, and be prepared to test a few types / weights of ammo. Don't be shocked by the results.
For breaking in, I fired 50 rounds, ran a bore snake through, 50 more rounds, bore snake, then sighted in.
I purchased expensive H&N 16.2gr pointed pellets that performed horribly. I couldn't hold a group and constantly got fliers.
I then tried some ultra cheap Crossman hollow point 14.3gr pellets ($7/500) and holy cow they were spot on nearly every shot. Shortly after dialing in the rifle, and took a groundhog at 50 yards with an incredibly clean / humane kill.
Overall, a great rifle, but remember the price point that you're purchasing into and don't expect miracles.

A nice handling .177 break-barrel, gas piston rifle. Holds a dime-size group at 50 ft (squirrel distance) once the proper pellet is found. It settled down after about 100 shots and the cocking became easier. Good value for the money and good for plinking and light pest control.
Things I Would Have ChangedI'm not out to win the Olympics so there's not much I would change at this price and performance point.
What Others Should KnowIf you look around at any air rifle review, you'll see that each gun is sensitive to the pellets used. I sighted in the Whisper using H+N hollow points at 50 ft (not yards) and will see what happens at 100 ft. My other UX .177 groups tightly with RWS wad cutters, and a 3rd rifle loves the JBS Match pellets. That's part of the fun, getting to know your equipment.
