    Gamo always do this to pretend their gun is the fastest. Newbies think faster than 950fts is what they need. Huge mistake!
    At 7:55 he admits he is using some 'pba free' pellet at 5.1gns. TOTALLY USELESS. 8gns for .177 is normal and you can go out to 10.3gn (this is a must for longer range)
    So what is the real speed of this rifle? probably right on supersonic where you don't want it (massive turbulence for a slug designed for subsonic speeds).
