So I have a few PCP rifles and just recently bought a HW97KT which I absolutely love. Not as quiet, light weight or powerful as the PCPs but really accurate and fun to shoot.
went to wallyworld and saw a few light weight Gamos there and thought I’d give them a shot. Even bought their 230$ in .22 and in 177. All together I tried 5 different Gamos. None of them I could get to group at 20 yards.
I thought it was the scopes so I took the scope off my hw97kt and tried that with no luck either. Put the Gamo scopes on my hw97 and they work great. Tried iron sights on the Gamos and same problem, no grouping at all.
Thank God for their return policy as they took them all back. I sure wanted to keep one of them to have laying around getting beat up in my work truck for those slow times.
Any input or tips on why this things are just not accurate? Or is it me not shooting them right? I can shoot pretty well with my HW97KT and I did try all kinds of different JSB pellets. Tried the 16gr, 14gr, 18gr, 25gr, crosssman Walmart pellets I think premier?! And a few H&Ns.
