    Gamo Swarm Maxxim 22 pellet inconsistencies

    Looks like Tractor Supply sells a Domed Crosman, although lighter than the Diabolo I may try it. I'm thinking the gun doesn't like the lighter pellets or it doesn't like hollow points.. If it shoots a good group with the Diabolo I'm not sure it's a gun issue. I have shot a cleaning pellet...

    Gamo Swarm Maxxim 22 pellet inconsistencies

    I'm shooting at 20 yards. I may try and see if I can get the Crosman's to hold a pattern since they are so cheap and available locally. If not, I will probably just order more of the Diabolo pellets. I never would have thought different pellets would act so different. Thanks guys

    Gamo Swarm Maxxim 22 pellet inconsistencies

    So I bought my Maxxim as a package deal and it came with Diablo Field 16 Grain domed pellets. I sighted it in with these and they are very consistent. Problem is everything else I have tried is all over the place. 1. Crosman Premier Hollow Point 14.3 grain 2. Benjamin Hollow point 14.3 grain ...

    Good Scope for under $100

    What would you have done different? I'm open to suggestions. This is how this offset mount works and it comes with a pin that fits into the stock rail. Seems to be the only way to mount it to me.

    GAMO Maxxim Trigger

    I don't hardly thing a jerk motion is the way to go but here is a video that explains it. And yes, all it does is adjust the trigger travel length before it fires. It does not adjust the amount of force to pull the trigger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eH_Y1w0CAfQ

    I don't really have anything to compare it to but the gun works flawless and the scope is amazing. So Yep, I do like it.

    Gamo maxxim swarm mount question

    This is the mount I used. It's an offset mount. Works perfect. As you can see in the photo, hopefully, the scope is pushed all the way back in the rings also. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002TUSJRK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Gamo Swarm Maxxim initial impressions

    Got my Gamo a couple days ago. So far it's a great gun. I do agree the stock scope is all over the place. Swapped it out with a Bug Buster and the stars have aligned, it's a shooter for sure. Well, for me anyway. It's my first pellet gun. Have shot about 250 rounds through it. Louder than...

    Good Scope for under $100

    I just mounted the Bug Buster 3-9x32 with a UTG High Profile offset mount RGPMOFS38-25H4 and it works perfect, you don't see any of the magazine at all

    Which air rifle for target shooting only?

    I was on a $200 budget as you originally mentioned. I ordered the Gamo Swarm Maxxim in 22. Recommended by Pyramid Air also. Should be here tomorrow. I bought it specifically to get rid of sparrows pecking at my tomato plants. It also has a 10 round magazine. I have since also ordered the Bug...

    Just found out I need an offset mount for that Bug Buster scope, now I'm up to $80 for that scope. Hope it's worth it.
