Go online to Cabelas website. You can get 'refurbished Gamos and RWSs' for about half the going price. Mine shoot excellent. I bought a Gamo Hunter 220. Then go to the Charliedatuna.com website. He explains everything you ever needed to know about springer pellet rifles. He recommends a midweight pellet based on gun speed. Spend $30 on one of his triggers, dial in the gun but pay attention to the scope. Springer guns are hell on scopes and it takes serious tourque to keep one in place. May have to upgrade scope mounts for another $15. Mine will kill squirrels out to about 30 yds. or so.
