- This is a full review of the new 2023 Gen 3i Gamo Swarm Magnum Pro in .22 caliber. This gas spring piston driven pellet rifle is packed with Gamo's latest refinements and upgrades, making it the smoothest affordable gas piston spring rifle I have shot yet. The new Gamo Swarm Magnum Pro delivers accurate shots with little recoil, compared to other break barrel air rifles.
This full Gamo Swarm Magnum Pro review will give you an up close look at the beauty of this break barrel, as well as test the performance and accuracy.
The GAMO Swarm Gen 3i Magnum Pro air rifle with scope, as shown in this video, is available at Pyramyd Air by clicking here: www.jdoqocy.com/click-1000059...
You can always find our CZcams Channel by going to www.Air-Gun-Channel.com Thanks for watching! - Sport
Dont know if it matters but I push the pellets in until they click. I have the magnum gen3i with other grip & mine is stacking them in the same hole too.
Great tip. Thank you! -Nate
@@AirgunChannel Welcome. I also wash & check them for flaws. I'd really like to try a bunch of hollow 22 slugs. I discovered most hollo pellets don't expand at these lower speeds, the pellets collapse on themselves instead of opening.

I have the swarm magnum 10x gen2 22 cal and I can tell you now it feels so good not to be bothered with hand pump scuba tanks or compressor it feels good jus to grab your pellets and go
EXACTLY what I was saying the whole time I was filming that review. When you don't have to worry about air AND you can hit the target...that's a thing of beauty!
👍🏾@@AirgunChannel
Great review! Apparently, Spain-based Gamo now owns "Birmingham Small Arms" (BSA). The synthetic stock on this latest Gamo rifle was initially developed by BSA for the BSA XL "Tactical" air rifle many years ago. I have the .177 version of the "Tactical", which was still made in Britain. Good products, and valuable BSA know-how for Gamo, which shows in the excellent accuracy of your air rifle.
I got the gen 2 magnum and mine really loves shooting the gamo rockets. Very accurate
I own one and I love it. I wanted a break from my pcp's and this one is the perfect gun to do so, it's making me love break barrels once again. It shoots accurate and with plenty of authority. One thing though: you say it's quiet, but compared to my FX's and Reign, it's loud. Thanks for showing what this beast can do. Much appreciated and keep those videos coming, you're doing some awesome work! Greetings from Belgium.
Wow, Hello from the USA! Nice to hear about your experience with the Magnum. Thanks for watching! -Nate
I am happy not to be the only Belgian watching your channel.
I have a Gamo CFX but I'm very impressed with this one, everyone is positive about it.
Awesome video !!!
Its a great hunter and back yard plinker. I will get the Bone Collector Series as my multi-shot break barrel. My Air Arms TX 200 is my competition springer. Nice video Nate.
I got this bad boy in 45J for when the SHTF. Round head .22 is scary stable and powerful.
Greets from Holland
I have a .177 Maxxim gen 2 and I love it!!!! I have a swarm dx as well and I can easy shoot a smaller than dime sized group at 23 yard. They have the IGT gas pistons and they are good. Great review, bud.
Thank you! Sounds like GAMO knows thier stuff. I love it!
Never liked gamo but, now they are with bsa hope they make magic. I'll wait for good rifle to be made want gamo features in bsa's rifles.
Dude its not Friday yet still great video i bought the swarm when it first came out. Gun was really accurate up to 50 yards. I dont shoot ut much anymore as I've moved to pcp's.
It does that at 50 too? Dang! ...gotta get my 3 PY Air videos in before the 1st. Thanks for watching!
Had a solid 15 years, including use by neighbors. Obtained a Gamo Wildcat .177 from th' WalMart and added a Varmint scope/light/laser.
Way better luck on squirells than I ever had with a .22lr.
Now I have the Fusion swarm g3i in .22
Now the " whispercat " is the same price I paid in 2007 AND that wildcat was still feeding folks in spring of '22.
Left it near Augusta.
Thinking about a whispercat .177 too. Just because. The rotary magazines may be more consistent than me seating pellets into the chamber tho😅
For squirell, rabbit, birds, and small varmints, weber sized feral piglets even, and iguana in so FL?
I should grow up and get a pcp already.
Sheeeeoooot not even 65 yet. The Hatsan Blitz....
I just bought this and I love it. It's kinda loud with the cheap ammo I bought; I'm hearing it supersonic on ricochet. It's definitely not easy to chamber but worth it.
loved the video and nice gun,i love gamo
but i hope none of those cars or that tent took any damage as you dont have a back stop!
You can't go wrong with a Gamo if you want an affordable break barrel. Great video as usual Nate.
I guess I just figured that out. Now I know why people love GAMO. Good stuff!
I have a magnum gen 2 I can hit penny size plastic chips at 35 yds consistently but I wasn’t impressed with the scope it came with so replaced it I love this rifle
Which scope and mount did you use
Added to my wish list on pyramid
Excellent video mate 👌👌👌👍👍👍
A break barrel with a magazine is a great advancement, but the many manufacturers locating the safety inside the trigger guard is irresponsible. It's the last place it should be located.
I just bought an Avenger in .22. Famously great gun, it doesn't shoot quite as accurately as this Gamo. 3 shots, holes touching, 20 y, but not quite as small a group. But my gun rest isn't as rock solid as yours. The Avenger requires a $500 compressor, and a scope; the Gamo requires a heavy 40 lb pull. I like the Avenger, but not everyone has $1,000 for a gun and accouterments, so the Gamo is a fine gun for a lot less $.
Just ordered this.
Happy with it? I just ordered one.
Nate nice review. I have a couple of Swarms that I enjoy shooting. In particular I find the light weight very refreshing. However I am going to have to pass on this one due to its length.
Good to know Swarms are good guns!
Great video! What type of rest is that? That’s sick!!
Caldwell stinger $89 on Amazaon
I like that rifle stand
I got the Gamo whisper and the Gamo gen 3 Bone collector . Both shoot great
Dang! Love those Bone Collectors...so cool!
My Gamo whisper 22 is my go too even over my mag gen3s it’s powerful easy and accurate
Just ordered the Swarm DX 22 probably the exact same as my whisper lol great deal $139
Nice video. I have the Swarm Magnum Gen3i and love it! Please share what kind of range finder you have and the shooting stands you where using.
Caldwell stinger $89 on Amazon, Halo 450XL rangefinder $89 at Walmart
I have the Halo 450XL to 👍 its awesome DUDE.........!
Is there much difference between this and the standard magnum? Amazon has the previous model for $40 less now.
Do you have to shim the scope due to barrel droop?
Great Review!
Is this metal trigger?
Thanks for any info!
Good question. It's metal
You need to try the crosman shockwave break barrel. .22cal it will shoot through a Coleman camping fuel bottle and a 1/2in sheet OSB one shot .22cal steel 14.3grain hollow point.brand Benjamin you'll be even more impressed with the air guns.
I'm always concerned about break barrels accuracy over time. This one seems well designed, but I would prefer an under lever design.
Always informative, Thanks for sharing.
Underlevers are good.
Well, maybe after 10 years and thousands of pellets, you might get a bit of barrel movemet at the breech. By then a new gun might be what you want. I shot several thousands through a Walther, and after 15 yrs, was still tight
@@WillyK51 Thanks for replying.
What about the zero between your scope and point of impact? Did that remain consistent over the rifle's lifetime?
@@arcticairgunner Basicaly yes. I used it a lot as a kid at home for target practice and also for small game hunting on the field. It got banged a lot and dif pellet brands. Needed sight adjustment now and then. But never noticed side to side or up-down woble at the hinge. Many thousand pellets went trough it. It was a Walther target rifle. Well made. I doubt a modern Gamo can be used so much as to make it Un-Accurate. The piston should go first. 👍
@@WillyK51 outstanding 👍
Dam i just got my Crono but been running 18’s in my Magnum 3i. Think i was at around 750. Cant believe that gun is slinging 16’s at almost 900 fts… thats nuts.
New stuff, Magnum Pro!!!
I have had one for several years. I tried to get another scope that focus but I cannot find out. I believe they call the scope an "AO" type scope.
Customer service at Game suggested two scopes but they would not fit the gun, they were too long.
I even bought a pikeneni rail mounts but they slip with the scope attached. You have to use the mount that comes with this gun as it has a pin that keeps the scope from slipping.
try this one (new) discoveryopt.com/products/117
Is it just gas powered or we can bolt action it traditionally?
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻 love my gamo!!!
I better keep this bad boy!
You want try field target trophy's 14.3 grain, it'll like them.
I wish Gamo made the Gamo lethal pellets 22 because in 177 they are deadly
Please do a comparison with the snowpeak Gr 1000x (with the 12 round mag)
👍🏻
Snowpeak sucks
You should always be aware of the background when setting up targets.
I'm more interested in the knife. What knife is that?
Hello,
Can someone tell me what gun rest brand and model this is please
Awesome
GAMO does it again!
Bro give me an honest anwser should i get one or would it brakle like a toy ?
They should make a 25 caliber mag feed wood stock version ! So cool 🤟🧐🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Did the jsb load in the magazine ea@ or did you have problems getting them in
If they were in the video then they were ok
Does anyone know what the breach block is made of?
I heard some breach blocks are a composite polymer material.
This one is metal
@@AirgunChannel Thanks... I've seen some reviews, seems polymer type breeches are used for some Gamo and Hatsan rifles...a worrying trend could be developing.
is GAMO Swarm 3i MAGNUM PRO the wery best Gamo airrifle with magasin i can`t tell....anyone know??? with 4.5mm pellets
Honestly I would feel a lot better getting this muddy and dirty on the quad than any of my PCPs. I have to put my LCS in a case to take it out riding and chilling with my buds. This gun would be a great beater.
Yeah, Its a capable thumper.
Which would you recommend, the gamo viper or roadster, which would be better
Good question. Gamo makes good guns
I have the Swarm gen 3 Magnum Pro I've put about a thousand pellets through it. and now I've noticed that my Barrel has play from side to side from Center it'll move a good strong quarter of an inch in either direction. I get it all cited in with jsb 15.89 pellets to where it's shooting pretty consistent grab the gun the next day and it's shooting off to one side sometimes one side and then the sometimes the other. Thought maybe my scope was loose checked all the screws on it checked all the screws on the stock they were all tight. that's when I Noticed the play in the barrel. I think I've had this issue since day one at first I thought it was the scope that came with the gun put a different scope on it ,shot pretty good at first now it's doing it again I wouldn't think the barrel should have any play from side to side I was just curious on if anyone else noticed any side to side play on their Magnum Pro
Send it back it should have like a5 year warranty
I had the gamo magnum 22cal break barrel the first one that came out at pyramidair , that rifle was loud sounds like a 22rimfire no supressure straight barrel very powerful ,send a 14 gr pellet about 1,400 fps a 18gr about 900fps , i should have never sold it , might get me another after i get my new RTI P3 22cal , Awesome review NATE like allways you rock bro Airgun Channel 👍😎👍
RTI P3...sounds sweet! I may have to hit up Tony for that one.
@@AirgunChannel🎯 TALON TUNES Airguns got some killer airrifle
I still have my original single shot Gamo magnum in 22, it's almost 10 years old and still shoots like new
How long until it breaks
hi, I have a question, I have the ger.2 but I would like to change the barrel, I like the barrel of the magnum 1250 without silencer better, in your opinion the fact that instead of the silencer there is a barrel and therefore it is longer, makes some difference difference in performance? speed, precision, thanks and congratulations for the channel and the video, greetings from Italy
Is it a spring or gas title mis leading
Needs Iron Sights
Hate Scopes
I want to buy every gun you review on your channel I’m going broke. 😂
Welcome to PCP. My friend was about $10k into it after a year and a half...that's about average. Luckily I just borrow them now.
I know that the numbers would drop greatly but I wayyy curious to see how it would shoot the 33 grain JSP pellets.. lol
They may not fit in the barrel or magazine
@@AirgunChannel Gotcha, would love to see if they do then lol I have a Crosman hand pump and it fits just like the rest. I know nothing other than that lol
Yup. I could definitely see myself buyimgnone of these. Gamo makes good breakbarrels nowadays..
I’ve never been impressed with gamo’s built in “moderator”. Did this version even come close to other moderators on the market especially when on a break barrel with that piston sound slamming down hard.
sounded quiet to me. But I can't hear too good.
It’s a shooter
I agree! Great break barrel for the money...or any price!
@@AirgunChannel yes it is. Good shooting with it.
Lol, rubber baby buggy bumper...blew some coffee through my nose...lol
Awesome!
How accurate is it at 50 yards I would think PCP should be accurate at 100 yards and Break barrels should be accurate at 50 yards if they’re any good without having to break the bank to buy one or is that too much to ask
Maybe a 50 cent piece size group at 50
Debería elogiar a Gamo dado que soy Español pero si queréis un consejo,ahorrar un poco más y comprar weihrauch.aveces lo simple funciona mejor siempre que lo hagas con calidad.Gamo algún día no enchaquetará cañones con plástico,los hará de él.😢
Sí, pero Weirauch es más difícil de conseguir en EE. UU. y cuesta el doble. ¡Esto es para los pobres, no para los ricos!... bueno, Weirauch está en el medio. Air Arms es el arma del hombre rico... el Pro Sport
Just got my gen3i and can’t even shoot it because it all goes into the silencer don’t know how to open it or anything
Better return it.
Does anyone know ifthu6
روعة، بصراحة، لكن عندي، سؤال أين، يوجد خزان، الهواء الذي، يوجد، بها، ارجوا، أن، نفهم،
In a break barrel a piston moves in a cylinder directly behind the barrel breech. No air storage cylinder is needed.
Where can I buy this? Link Please and Thank you
check the description silly.
Sorry my bad lol 😅 , this kind of rifle can kill big Raccoons big Rats?
Bonjour, avec nos Gamo 45j,, on tire des canettes à plus de 100 mètres
hello sir my 22 guns karreble kau ba bili sana aqo
890 seems pretty slow. It's advertised at 1300 fps. Am I missing something?
Yeah, Your missing the fact that you can't shoot pellet 1300 FPS without getting 6 inch groups at 20 yards. Once it breaks the sound barrier it's over. 890 is the MOST accurate speed for pellets.
@@AirgunChannel ah I see. I’m used to actual rifles and while I know you must sight your optics in for specific grains I didn’t know air rifles decrease in accuracy as velocity goes up.
How much price bro
S300
Not my cupo of coffee😂😂😂😂
Магнум. Да ещё и "про". Я рыдаю с марктулохов! )))
Weihrauch hw97k King
compare it against a weichrauch like hw80 or something
11 Oz? That is about a pound and a half lighter than everybody else's CAT trigger.
I know. It's the Magnum Pro dude!
My Pro is at 14oz! Very accurate and powerful too!
why 1300 fps?
The box says that
Mine is a high of 761 with 14.3 Hollowpoints ?
Dude are you being sponsored by gamo or pyramid air?
Both silly!

Dude…..show the cocking mechanism!!!
So you are shooting where cars drive behind your targets, and not far from parked cars.
Do not dry fire your gun!
Who did that?
I just bought 70 dollars worth of ammo

Grose, this is the 24j version. What waste of money!
This is 44 joules in .22 cal
@@AirgunChannel Thats not what is says on the box..
Federal Firearm License required to buy a part from Gamo. You don't have a Federal Firearms License? Then you are out a rifle for ???? long. You have to send in the whole rifle, then Gamo sends you a different rifle back. In the mean time, you have nothing to shoot, because it'll be weeks before you get something back from Gamo. Gamo doesn't want you to fix their rifles, they want you to buy a new one.
hm
Is this items available in India?
Not my cup of tea. Thanks for showing anyway.
Word that. I'll take a PCP please! or a Ray gun .

@@AirgunChannel thank you , I looked it up already 😇
The box says it's 5.5 cal. Why are you calling it a 22 cal
5.5mm = cca .22 inch
Too loud!!!
In India its worth over 600USD.
Indian’s way of over pricing everything from EU or WEST😂.
Will never buy anything Gamo
Good for you man you rock
That's alot of plastic..its made from recycled toy story dolls...
Never been an issue with actual firearms so I'm sure the tremendous recoil of an air rifle wont harm it.
I don't know which state has this accent but it is absolutely the most annoying accent that the US has to offer.
King ?.....I wouldn't say that. Hatsan make pretty damn good air rifles.
They do.
I prefer h&n pellets
Every gun has to be tested for the particular pellet(s) it will shoot accurately. Even among same brand and model.
