You know, all the time I have been on this forum this has not been the norm for a comment... I think it is uncalled for no matter the age of the poster. :-|.
Does it realy matter how old someone is, people at any ages can have new and good ideas, its called thinking out of the box.
Plus good ,for Gamolvr and his parents Gamo on the part of listening to his parents, and the parents for paying attention to what he does on-line, we need more of that in this world.

Well said! PGSMITH. Some of us started young and some of us started to stay young. Either way we all share something in common and that's what we're here for...love of airgunning.
gammoluver1 let's see some of those pictures. I have a BC too. Out of the box it wasn't that enjoyable to shoot. Its called the Gammo twang. Save up some money and invest in a GRT or GTX trigger. Also unscrew the butt pad and stuff some foam or rags in there. It will conceal (not eliminate) some of the vibration. Perhaps a good project with your dad would be a Macarri spring and Apex seal. If your spring isn't giving you the twang this is optional and it will cost you about $35 for the materials. Problem is you will need to make a spring compressor to do this safely. Read up and don't try to do this on your own.
Again, let's see some of your pictures. Mine groups at 3/4" at 15 yards easy! Oh yeah, the stock scope leaves a lot to be desired...
-
I did the GRT trigger, new scope, and mount like I bought a new gun, I would like to make it quiter (urban hunting) but over all I am getting 10 shots in a dime at 10 yards.
-
OK WELL i stuffed the but days ago its awsome uhm my scope isnt to enjoyable to shoot ha thats why i added new post asking for any1 that had a old or un inuse scope better then mine =/ ha thanks for sticking up for me bro ill post the links to photo bucket
-
After I replaced the spring, seal and did lube tune it actually isn't that loud. More like a thunk. I shoot in the basement a lot with it now. Something I couldn't pretune. I was thinking of mounting an "LDC" but decided I didn't want to give up my new found accuracy. It did lose a little velocity. Gamo match were right at 890 fps pretune and are now right around 850 fps.
-
hey can you make a guide to safley take apart the big cat to lube and de-grease it please really indepth/really really detailed guide and heres the pictures
-
here they are bro
-
Not too shabby. If you can try to get as many different pellets because they make a world of difference. Mine actually likes the Daisy Premiers from Walmart the best. Your pellets should be tearing a cleaner round circle because I'm sure you've got some decent velocity.
Try this...artillary hold and light trigger grip. Meaning if you are right handed, just balance the forestock on your open hand. Do not grip the forestock. Optimal on the BC is 3-5" in front of the trigger guard. Also, don't jam the but into your armpit. It sWith trigger hand just barely hold the rifle. You want to gently pull the trigger. This all will be easier with an upgraded trigger.
-
hey do you have an msn or aim or facebook be much easier to chat please and i dont quit understand ya

Nothing will shoot out, just make sure that you use the correct torex bits, they strip easy... And the front screw on the trigger gaurd, when you put it back in be careful it only screws into the synthetic stock (also easy to strip)
-
What pellets worked for you?
-
What ammo did you use?
-
I've tried a whole bunch of pellets and believe it or not at 15m or less the cheap Daisy Precision Max pellets from Wallyworld outperformed Meisterkuglens and Hobbys. Also outperformed Gamo target wadcutters and Avanti Match Pellets. Out past say 25 yards...Crosman Premier HP from Wallyworld were also pretty good only barely edged out by CPHs. CPLs were just a tad less tight grouping than the CPHPs.
-
Now that's great!!! We all have a Wallyworld near by.
I also ended up using the Crosman Premier HP .
