Product Description

You'll be ready to hunt small and medium-sized game and vermin with the Gamo air rifle! 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)...

Wow Very impressed with the power this thing has 1200 fps.With PBA's.22 long rifle rim fire 1250 fps. Air rifles have come along way since I was a kid this is definately an adult air rifle I pinned my 1st target to a piece of 1/2'' plywood it blew right through that next I tried a piece of 3/4'' plywood blew through that and stuck in the fence behind it a half inch in, if your looking for an air rifle to kill small to medium size game look no no further, in the wrong hands this air rifle could kill something larger I just can't say it, or even imagine any parent buying this for thier kids without supervsion while there shooting it. I'm not trying to bum anybody's high but this is definetly not for kids.This air rifle is constructed very well and appears to have been well thought out in the design stage. I also like the adjustable trigger, and scope. While I was shooting one of my nieghbors stopped by he thought I was shooting a .22 short rimfire so as far as the sound dampener is concened I may have got one that doesn't work so well or it's louder than I expected fortunetly all my neighbors are cool ( we're all rednecks) lets just hope the fuzz don't stop by for a visit cause they may want to shoot it too or take me to jail either way I'm very pleased with this air rifle and will probably sell a few more for Amazon. Thank You alway's remember safety first.

I see a lot of comments about the Gamo Whisper being "loud" and not quiet. It's NOT the gun that's loud, it's the ammunition you are using in it. The PBA Raptor rounds you guys are firing are SUPERSONIC rounds. The "crack" you hear is the PBA Raptor ammo breaking the sound barrier. Switch to a heavier, standard lead pellet, around 9-10 grams, and you won't hear that crack.

I have had a lot of fun with this gun. I have one of the older ones without the silencer on it that i gave my brother. He shoots the skunks and racoons that give him trouble around his house. 1 shot and they are no longer a problem. [he has to bag them up an bury them though] I thought the whisper would be a bit less noisey but still makes quite a bang. would buy it again if i did not have one.
