I had one, lovhing to death i shot everything from starling up through raccoon. then i traded it in for a beeman R9 loved that thing too(bigger pellet and more accuaratethan the gamo but it came with a heft price tag of about $400) then i sold that this smmer and bought a ruger10/22 and pimped it out. i still wishi never got rid of my gmo though.... loved that thing, wont do you wrong. Check out the beeman ram-jet pellets for it. I got my gamo to shoot 1" groups at 50 yards with em.

Oh yeah i forgot, unless they fixed it in the last 2 years you might wanna buy new scope mounts to go on your pellet gun.... the ones it came with sucked(kept sliding back even when tightened all the way. I'de buy some weaver mounts for it.

woe....no way dont even try to take an coyote with the gamo!!! didnt read that part before........ but no do not try it you will just piss it off if you want t kill coyote pick up a savage .22 magnum for $200 or i would even be hesitant to ay it but you might be able to do it with a 22lr. but i would go with the savage 20 bucks more and yu will have a sure kill. remember 22MAGNUM not longrifle.

funsupply.com Same guns just way cheaper. I have the b-19 and it is way better than that game 220. It is the same gun but its made better and it's $100.

We've found the 22mag to be a bit inadequate for coyotes, then again many of our shots are walking, trotting in front of dogs, but we've drilled some standing and not gotten them with 22 mag or had the dogs collect them up a good distance away. Juniorpc.
