The Gamo Mach1 Pigman Edition .22 Caliber EGT Air Rifle is the second of two high powered break barrel pellet rifles I have purchased. The first was the Gamo Whisper Fusion Pro .177 caliber pellet rifle which you can read about here.

Since purchasing this gun I have shot it countless times and found it to be extremely accurate right out of the box.  As is the case with all Gamo airguns I have had the pleasure of shooting, this one is built to last.  The normal price of the Mach1 Pigman Edition is around $349.  I happened to find mine while it was on sale for about $249 which made it more affordable.

The Gamo Mach1 Pigman Edition .22 Caliber EGT Air Rifle features:

  • Length of pull for this gun is 14.2 in.
  • Cocking effort is 32 lbs.
  • Barrel length is 17.8"
  • Overall length of the gun is 43.3 inches
  • Weighs a total of 6.5 lbs.
  • Available in both .177 cal.  and .22 cal.
  • Whisper Fusion double integrated noise dampening technology
  • Reduced Recoil Rail technology to extend the life or your scope
  • All weather synthetic stock
  • Non-slip rubberized grips
  • Shock Wave Absorber recoil pad
  • Fiber optic front and rear sights for easy aiming
  • Includes 3-9 x 40 scope

The .177 caliber rifle shoots pellets at up to 1420 feet/second while the .22 caliber rifle shoots pellets at up to 1,020 feet/second offering plenty of knockdown power for varmint hunting.

Cons:

The only complaint I have about this rifle is that the quality of the scope that is included with it does not come close to matching the quality of the gun.  If you like shooting with open sights, you'll be set right out of the box once you sight it in.  If you want to shoot it with a scope, plan on spending some extra money to purchase a new scope.  The scope I chose is the Leapers UTG 3-9x40 AO Illuminated Reticle True Hunter Scope.
