The Gamo® Wildcat Whisper™ Air Rifle uses Gamo's IGT (Inert Gas Technology) gas piston to launch pellets with a pneumatic cylinder instead of a spring for faster, more consistent shots. Gas piston pellet guns are smooth cocking, function in cold weather, and last longer than metal spring powered guns. Shooting a .177 PBA Platinum alloy pellet at 1350 fps makes this an ideal pellet gun for hunting small game and pest control. A 4x32mm airgun scope allows you to pick-off small, hard-to-see targets. Gamo's noise-muting Whisper Technology, with a double integrated noise dampener, makes the Wildcat ultra quiet, reducing the risk of spooking animals and increasing your opportunities of hitting multiple pesky targets. The Gamo Wildcat Whisper Air Rifle combines maximum performance with all-weather durability featuring a tough all-weather synthetic stock. The Wildcat has an automatic cocking safety system and a manual trigger safety.
