    Just seen the right up for this rfile in airgunner.
    You reckon this would be any good for hunting?

    You did only give it 16 minutes mate. Someone will probably be along soon with their experiences of it.

    Its £200 on BAR... for that money you could have a Webley or BSA springer secondhand from here, probably with much better glass on it too?

    Hard to tell, from the review its accurate and powerfull.
    The fact that they shoot over the pond with much more power could be a good sign too, it shows its under-stressed.
    I wouldnt buy one simply because its so ugly to me, but of course, beauty is in the eye etc...
    You could be one of the first to get one and let us know?

    TX is tried and tested, has thousands of fans, and you may be a guinea pig for the remington. You pays your money you makes your choice, but I'd take the tx...

    Nothing wrong with gamo. They are let down by the triggers but its replaceable with a custom one.

    Shaun, dare to be different! If you like the looks go for it, everyone says most modern guns will out-shoot their owners. So what if the tx MAY be slightly more accurate, everyones got one and I'd be surprised if the genesis is any less accurate in the real world when you are actually shooting things.

    Ah, you didnt did you? Fair enough, I'm just used to people trashing them all the time is all.
    If I had £150 to blow on a new rifle it would be a gamo hunter .22, really nice little gun.

    the remington is a new gun and as such there wont be many about so a fair review isnt really possible so as such its a rifle with no reliability history.

    if i had £150 to spend on a new gun like wadoka says the gamo hunter is a nice gun but i quite like the royale.

    gamo's are a decent alternative all said and done
