    The best pellet rifle on the market!?!... The Gamo Swarm 10X Magnum is advertised as being one of the most silent air rifles on the market while shooting a .22 caliber pellet at 1300 fps from the muzzle. On this episode of Hunt Shoot Live, I really put the Gamo Swarm Magnum to the test... can it take down a whitetail deer?

    I've done a bunch of penetration test with the same gun. The Rocket has good penetration, but the H+N Hornet is the ultimate 22 penetrator. At 10 yards it will go through 8 gauge steel or pass completely through a coconut with ease.

      @@HuntShootLive the Rocket would put a helluva dent in the 8 gauge, but not go through. In other tests the Hornet went through 2 coconuts at 10yrds but I was never able to replicate it. The best I got was passing through the first and getting stopped in the middle of the second coconut. But that tells me it would probably pass right on through a deer's skull at 20+yds. 🤠

      Anything is good at 10 yards. :) But I am with you with the Hornet in this gun. If you are good with springers and have a good scope, this sucker with that pellet is a 70-80 yard small game head shot gun. It flies as well as any great domed pellet, (to my amazement foe a tipped pellet), and the quality is fantastic. The Hornet skirts are thicker than the rockets and it is often I get a 200 pc tin with no dented skirts. The thin skirts are the downfall of the otherwise very good rocket pellet. This gun has enough pressure to blow up the Hornet skirt for a good fit with the riflings/barrel bore. The Hornet flies so well, I bought over 2000 of them,---then my gun broke.
      After you clean your barrel, make sure there is no oily grime under the magazine system and the breech face,---or the gun will get damaged. The plastic covers up the breech face, and it was out of sight, out of mind for me.
      The first shot I did after cleaning it dieseled and sounded like a .22LR. I found the pellet in the snow, (I think a JSB dome), and the skirt is blown up like a perfect ball room dress to .300" in diameter, (2mm larger than the barrel, from the dieseled pressure). I think that is the ID of the plastic muzzle.

    The rifle arrived today and I dialed in the scope just a couple hours ago th-cam.com/users/postUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL . I haven’t shot with a scope in probably 25 years. The X on the left was my target. (the shot almost in the bullseye on the right X was my father in laws first shot after I made adjustments) The two shots circled are my first 2 shots. Then I brought it down - shot once. Then brought it over to the left. From there zeroed it in to dead center. This all was from 25 yards out. Follow instructions carefully when mounting the scope. So far I'm very happy with the purchase.

I like Gamo because for a relatively small amount of money you get very powerful rifles. At a short distance, I get the deepest penetration with Gamo Magnum in 177 caliber with H&N Hornet pellets that achieve high subsonic velocity. With 22 caliber Gamo rifles also H&N Hornet pellets give excellent penetration. God bless!

      Better with a cross bow. Whether or not the air gun/rifle projectile combination penetrates for a kill, depends on the combined engineering of both gun and/or projectile/bullet. That is if they are meant to do so. Air guns are meant to be restrictive in killing power, that is by the powers that be. I have found over my 76 years, that hardened led balls work the best in the combination of penetration and energy transfer.

    When I was young a friend's family owned a local slaughterhouse, they stunned cows, and hogs with 22 short. After the slid to the floor their throats were cut, and they bled out. The animals never showed any sign of pain, much more humane kill than a center mass shot typical of hunting. The problem with hunting with a 22 short, or 22 pellet gun is getting that perfect shot between the eyes. Their are hunters who do use air rifles for wild pigs using between the eyes head shots, they are very successful. Even small pigs have a very hard scull, probably tougher than a deer.

    • @connerpellew2351
      @connerpellew2351 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I was like 15 and got sent to Pennsylvania to stay out of trouble and I worked at a dairy farm and every once in a great while a cow would step in a woodchuck hole and break its leg. The farmer was so busy that he didnt have time to deal with her so he said I could have her . so I got my family together and my uncle used a .22 and shot her between the eyes and it knocked her out cold. I jumped on her and cut her throat. The idea is that you knock the cow out instead of killing so when you cut the throat the heart will pump most of the blood out. Because there is so much blood in a cow. IV had people call me a lier and say that .22 go through the skull everytime but iv shot 3 cows with cheap federal brick ammo and it didnt go in the skull. I never tried .22 shorts but I'm sure it knocks em out cold just the same. But they damn sure dont suffer. I think that you would drop a smaller deer with this guys air rifle if you hit it in the head from a shorter distance. IV seen .22 shorts and .22 CB caps drop a deer from 40 yards with head shots.

    • @cadebeek3111
      @cadebeek3111 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah the .22 doesn’t actually kill them. It’s the knife to bleed em that actually kills them. It only knocks em out. Ive seen slaughterhouses where the guy was shooting a horse and on many occasions it would take multiple shots to the head before it would get knocked out or killed at that point.

    I have this gun. It is a 100 yard gun, (but not much energy left that far out). When you get the technique down for shooting a springer, (basically, don't touch the gun at all,--lighten the trigger cause a gun just floating on your hands is easy to move.), you will get those groups at 80 yards, (if the scope and all is working properly).
    The gun shoots a lot of good pellets well, but I found most of the H&N pellets to have the best quality, (no dented skirts like those rockets, that's a 20fpe difference), and those Hornet pellets with the metal tip fly as well as any great domed pellet I have used. Accurate enough for head shots to 70 yards on small game,---if your not touching the damn gun! :) PS, when I took my cheek and shoulder pressure off the stock before pulling the trigger,---groups got smaller.
    Can't get parts easily from Gamo though, so I will buy an extra gun.

    In the video titled '177cal vs Deer Headshot Point Blank & 20yd' the guy shows that a deer can be killed from a distance of 20 yards, even with a slightly weaker type of Gamo rifle in caliber 177 (I mean, slightly weaker than Gamo Whisper, a lot weaker than Gamo Magnum). There are more videos on youtube where they kill wild boars and domestic pigs with 177 caliber rifles weaker than Gamo Magnum (guys in Brazil shoot domestic pigs in the head with air rifles before slaughtering pigs), kill coyotes or pierce the heads of deer and wild boar. And they do it all with break barrel air rifles in 177 caliber. There is even a video on youtube where a guy in Brazil kills an ox with a shot to the head with a .23 caliber brazilian 'CBC nitro six' break barrel air rifle before slaughtering an ox and there is video where the guy kills a cow with CBC nitro x 1000 air rifle in 22 caliber (CBC nitro six and CBC nitro 1000 rifles are slightly weaker than the Gamo Magnum). I have some of those videos saved. Today’s Gamo air rifles really aren’t toys.

But it's like a moped and fat chicks, fun to ride but you never admit to it, let alone brag about it! Number #1: Never diesel an airgun, the seals weren't designed for that much pressure. Number #2: Never brag about it's accuracy, Crosman barrels are sourced from China and are extremely inaccurate because of the crown cutting. Number#3: Step up to a 22caliber, are you trying to kill mice? Number #4: at the bare minimum spend atleast $300 on a springer to even mention it in a forum. And I'm not a purist, I started off with crap guns too, but I knew better than to brag about them.

    FYI -- I also have the Gamo Swarm Magnum Gen 2 .22 cal. (27 FPE). It's a good break barrel, but the scope is not. I also have the Umarex Gauntlet 2 .25 cal. (56 FPE) which can place 5 rounds within a nickel diameter at 60 yards with a 6-24X Hawke scope (which costs 1.5X more than the Gauntlet 2). Penetration using JSB King Heavy 33.95 gr pellets at 60 yds will pass through two 3/4-inch pine boards. The Gamo Swarm will just +/- pass a pellet through one 3/4-inch board at point blank range. Gamo Swarm = No Deer, No pigs. You would need head shots with at least 50 FPE for small pigs, and 100 FPE with a .30 cal. pellet or .22 cal. LR for a medium sized deer in order to be humane.

      @@HuntShootLive That is another good thing about the Hornet pellet, with the sharp metal point, it will stick on some angles that domed pellets would deflect off of. I think that Hornet is the best skull shot pellet for that gun period, and it really is accurate enough, like 1" groups at 65 yards. I think that gun is probably in the top 3 for a flat pellet trajectory for a break barrel gun, (and better than some PCP's). I like to sight mine in at 40 yards, use one mill dot at 65 yards, and another 90 yards, with the 16gr Hornet, (865fps). A 18gr JSB, (835fps), took 3 mill dots at 90 yards, sighted in at 40. So I use one mill dot about every 24-25 yards with the Hornets. My old Hatsan .30 cal. (585fps) Break barrel was the other end of the spectrum, at 8 yards per mill dot, and there were 9 of them on that scope. You get lost in the mill dots with anything over 5 I found. :)

      Yes you are right. At my begining deer hunting with airrifle, i never get one frontal shot. After gun upgrade( heavier pellets more speed up to 30 Joule in 0.22 calibre Pcp, better accuracy ( under inch group at 35 yard distance) results improved. Not recomended shoot beyond 40 yards distance, if posible 25-30 aim on eye when deer is in angle and if its side shot, two inches behind eye to ear, drop instantly.
      Neck shot not recomended and lungs or heart its sure, you never find that deer. Hogs are in my area rare, not had oportunity test them. Fox are little bit tough even headshot, if they come close on mouse sqeeking.

I have had it for year's but, for some reason...was not using it. It is reliable, easy to clean and needs little to no cleaning. The accuracy in every AR I have tested has not only been spot on but, if the gun is on with 5.56 at 100 yds. She is on with 22 at 50 yds. Now she is Minute Of Squirrel but, maybe not Minute Of Squirrel Head. Anyhow, if you don't have one....get one. 169 bucks for that with 3 25rd mags. Bargain. The place to get it is Botach and extra mags through them 19 bucks. I order 7 more mags so I can load up 250 rounds. That will put in a decent range session and never have to load. Talk about the ultimate survival tool. A short AR in 5.56 with a silencer and the CMMG. I am gathering up parts to build a 5" 5.56. 1 in 5 twist. I am not sure how 22lr will respond to that twist rate but, I do know most all 22 ammo will be subsonic. I am expecting better terminal performance. A 22 traveling with those rpm's should really act up when it makes contact with flesh. If you have any questions shoot me a text.

    Whether or not the air gun/rifle projectile combination penetrates for a kill, depends on the combined engineering of both gun and/or projectile/bullet. That is if they are meant to do so. Air guns are meant to be restrictive in killing power, that is by the powers that be. I have found over my 76 years, that hardened led balls work the best in the combination of penetration and energy transfer.

      I don't think so. I saw a confused vid about that. The magazine was changed. The power is the same. If it is possible for a break barrel to make 60fpe with ambient air with a piston behind it, it will probably have to have 2 pistons and cock it twice. There is just not enough air with on piston to do that. But one piston in the mag guns can compete with many PCP guns to .22 cal. Bigger than that, and the piston air just can't fill the larger diameter barrel.
      The only way a single piston/cylinder can make that kind of power is if it is huge, (has to be over twice the size), or the ambient air in the chamber is actually pressurized first somehow.
