High Power by Gamo

High-power Gamo carbines, such as the 24 joules, have an effective range of approximately 50 to 70 meters for precise shooting. This range may vary depending on the specific model, caliber and environmental conditions. To maintain accuracy at long ranges, it is important to consider using high-quality pellets and installing a good scope.
Spring: Ideal for beginners and children, with models less than 7.5 joules, but there are also high-power options and larger chambers. European brands include Gamo, Diana and Cometa; Turkish ones include Hatsan; and the Chinese ones include Snowpeak.
Gas Piston (IGT): Provides smoother and more consistent shots, with less vibrations. Gamo is an affordable option made in Spain. Hatsan and Cometa also stand out, the latter manufactured by hand in Eibar.
CO2: They use 12 gram CO2 capsules, they are lower in power and price, ideal for recreational shooting and plinking. Featured brands include Crosman, Daisy and Umarex.

A compressed air rifle with 24 joules of power refers to the kinetic energy of the pellet when it leaves the barrel, calculated with the formula: Energy (J) = 0.5 x mass (kg) x speed^2 (m/s). In Spain, carbines up to 24.2 joules are considered fourth category and do not require a weapons license, although it is mandatory to register them in the corresponding town hall. It is recommended to check local regulations before purchase.

Gamo incorporates several advanced technologies in its high-power rifles, such as:
IGT (Inert Gas Technology): Replaces the traditional spring with a gas piston, offering smoother and more consistent shots.
CAT (Custom Action Trigger): An adjustable trigger that allows you to customize the travel and trigger force.
SWA (Shock Wave Absorber): A stock with a shock absorption system to reduce recoil.
RRR (Recoil Reducing Rail): A rail system that reduces recoil and protects scopes.
10X Technology: A multiple loading system that allows you to shoot up to 10 pellets without having to manually reload after each shot, increasing the speed and comfort of shooting.
Sound Moderation Technologies: Include Whisper and Whisper Maxxim, which significantly reduce shot noise, allowing for more discreet shooting and reducing disturbance to the environment.

Caliber choice: .177 for precision and competitions; .22 for small game and pest control.
Maintenance: Regular cleaning of the barrel and lubrication of moving parts to ensure optimal performance.
Accessories: Consider installing a quality scope and using appropriate pellets to maximize accuracy and power.
Legislation: In Spain, all Gamo high-power carbines comply with the weapons law and regulations, they do not require a weapons license, but must be registered.
