Page 2 - Gamo Rocker Pellet Trap, Reset Reviews

Fun to shoot at!and the reset feature

Put rubber on the backstop to prevent the occasional ricohet!

Sometimes the shipping might alter the reset function...I had to look at how the reset worked and put the springs back into the correct places

Much more rewarding to shoot at than paper. A good value.

A bigger version would be nice. This one is kind of small, but not bad.

All the other reviews are right on. Stay within its limits and it's fine. Surprisingly, it's not very noisy for indoor use. I'm glad I bought it!

Interesting mostly "indoor" target that should provide many hours of service.

Backstop portion of target will need additional material (carpet, rubber pad, etc) to ensure longevity of the target. NOT for steel shot that will ricochet wildly, and high-power air guns will shorten its lifespan unless the backstop is reinforced!

A good, basic, challenging, mostly indoor type of target.

It's well made, for lower power pellet guns. My .22 Beeman, break barrel would destroy this thing in short order. For my 1377 & CO2 pistols, it's perfect. It holds the pellets and lead well. It's easy to empty out. The center reset is great! No going down range to change targets, just keep shooting.

Nothing. Make a Heavy Duty version for the more powerful airguns out there.

This added a new element of fun and challenge to my indoor airgun range. A lot of fun for the money.

Fun! Good quality & functional.

Room for carpet or putty on the backstop.

Using it with my .22 W-LGV and .177 Gamo Shadow.

great little trap for co2 pistols, at 20 feet its fairly challenging and provides great entertainment. the trap makes a very satisfying mechanized sound as you flip paddles up & release them.

make it larger.

keep to your lower velocity guns with this trap , my Walther cp88 leaves notable dents in the back of the trap. my gun averages between 380 - 440 fps, any more velocity would likely do more substantial damage.

Very easy to use and set up. Tons of fun and great for developing accuracy.

The pellets dent the targets and scrape the paint off the trap so I don't know how long it will last. It's certainly very fun until then!

Everything! It's actually a bit bigger than I thought it would be for $30, definitely a great deal! I've already had other friends asking for them. The spoons are the perfect size to shoot from any distance between 15' and 100' (I'm in Canada and don't have a firearms license so I can't have a gun that shoots over 500 fps) I mostly use my Daisy 953 rifle but I also occasionally use a Daisy Powerline 201 with it which works well. I can usually hit 10/10 from 15' away with both guns, once the distance starts to increase, this definitely becomes more of a challenge! Great product!

I would put 2 holes in the back and provide 2 bolts and washers so it could be mounted on the wall.

Airsoft BBs come flying back out of the trap with serious power, heads up!! (You're not supposed to use any BBs with it and that is EXACTLY why!

Works well

Nothing

young children will Need a scopeto hit the small paddles.

good price. works well. I am right at the min distance.....177 cal. ok Do not shoot .22cal.. will damage..also this cal so strong can reset all pendulumat once..lol! \

nothing.. does what it says

nope!

great for short range pistol or variable pump rifle, it's a great reactive target for indoor or outdoor use. I have set this up at 40 foot indoor.

not much!

pellets can stick to the targets, but I find that with a little wd40 and patience, its no big deal. you end up shooting the stuck pellets off and thats fun! this target seems suited best for 400fps or so, I used a crosman pumpmaster 77 with gamo green dot. when I used a hastsan rated at 700fps, it badly dented the back of the trap. If you hammer this with a high velocity rifle you will trash it, so don't!

Challenging due to size at 10 m. Action of target spoons when hit. They fact that the pellets are neatly and safely collected in the box.

Nothing.

I shoot this target in my basement at 10 m with a Crossman 760 with open sights. It's challenging and satisfying to knock those spoons up and watch the action in the box. The targets are 1" and 3/4" and the center reset target is 1 1/4". Great for indoor target shooting.

Nothing

The description is not accurate, I have a .25 cal benjamin trail np xl 725 and it just badly beaten this Gamo trap, After 20 to 30 shot of my hollow point it penetrates a hole at the back of this thing 4x the size of the pellet. Im proud of my benjamin but disappointed with this trap.

This trap is for .177 and .22 pellets only, Preferably with a pistol with velocity of 500 fps or lower. 750 fps as described is over rated. My rifle with 725 fps pellet destoyed this thing in less than 30 shots.

Fun and easy to use. Targets are challenging enough to not be "easy" but not so difficult to hit to make you frustrated. Auto-reset is a nice hands-free feature.

As has been stated, you can't pound the heck out of this thing. It's more for plinking grade airguns. I don't like to hit it with more than 8 FPE or so. It tends to spray out lead fragments into the surrounding area even with the lower powered impacts, so have it somewhere you can easily clean up. Would be nice to have interchangeable or different paddles available (silhouette targets, etc.)

Reasonably LOUD. Pellets hit with a solid CLANK! on impact.

Works OK, with slow pellets

Make a heaver model, possibly for .22 rim fire use.

Targets do not stay up until all are hit. Usually the vibraton causes some of them to drop. It taks a lot of shooting to get them all up at one time. BUT I guess that is the fun of it.

The Rocker pellet trap is well built and very fun. Not needing to get up and reset the target is nice, and being a reactive target, it provides positive feedback when you score a hit. The trap is also light weight and easy to transport.

I would make it larger. The trap is small and the targets are close together. When I'm using a less accurate gun and longer distances, I will sometimes hit the plate next to the one I'm aiming at. I'd also like the trap to be rated for higher powered guns. Most of my airguns are of hunting power levels and can damage the trap if the range is too short.

As I said above this trap is small, and the plates are very small. The small plates are about the size of a penny. This is fine for a 10 meter gun, but not so gun for a 1000 class springer. The 1000 class guns are also too powerful for this trap, so if you want to use it with a powerful springer, you'll need to increase the range so that the pellet's energy has enough time drop to safe levels. This trap is very fun at short range with action pistols, and long range with accurate field target guns.

This little trap is great for use in my basement with my .22 crosman 1322. At 3-4 pumps it will flip the hanging targets up every time from 20-25 feet. Sometimes the pellets don't make good contact and they don't flip up all the way but I would attribute that to my accuracy. I've put a few hundred rounds of varying types of pellets into this thing and the targets aren't warped at all. Even a direct shot to the flat metal "Gamo" only makes a small dent with my setup.

Offer a larger/wider version. Maybe something with 8 hanging targets instead of 4. The paint/powder coating chips off some but if you are using it inside it shouldn't be an issue.

Flat pellets do stick to the targets like others have mentioned but it adds to the fun to try to shoot the stuck ones back off again with a dome pellet. :) I keep meaning to pick up some cheap fluorescent stickers to put on the targets to make them easier to see and show some damage.

instant set up, more challenging than would be thought. heavy duty construction, does not get beat up when hit.

pellets stick to targets because of a frosted finish. polish them would probably prevent this.

using lower power izh 61. would not use high power gun.

It is a good back stop and doesn't move with the 600 fps .177 pellet. It works well and is good fun

It it was a little larger, my less experienced children wouldnt miss the trap.

Pellets did stick to the targets until a small application of silicone spray.

Good concept and well built.

I would gladly pay more to make it wider for more targets, instead of buying two.

Very satisfied with the product, I would buy this again & again & again.
