Ain't that the truth. We used to have BB gun fights. Half my neighbors would have been dead for sure.

I have a RWS that shoots 22cal 900fps punches holes through squirrels at 40 yrds. Gamo's are good my wife has one and so does my son.

The hunter in that video is named Steve Scott. That video clip is from an episode of Steve Scott's Outdoor Guide featured on the Versus Network in the Fall.He tested it out on 2x4's, paint cans, and finallya skull ofa hog beforetaking a shot on a live animal.Since this episode he has also hunteddove and coyotes witha Gamo.I work with Steve on his site and ever since I saw that episode I have wanted a Gamo.
