This video provides a review of the Umarex Synergis 12-shot under-lever air rifle. Gun Tech Editor Richard Nance and Pro-Shooter Jim Tarr demonstrate its unique under-barrel lever cocking mechanism, which automatically loads a .177 caliber pellet from its 12-round rotary magazine. The review highlights how this system allows for more shooting time and less loading time. The air rifle comes with two magazines and a pre-mounted 3-9X scope, offering a complete package for airgun enthusiasts.
The Gamo Swarm Maxim (.177 cal) outperformed the Umarex Synergis in a head-to-head test, despite being $40 more expensive. The Gamo offered better accuracy with various pellets, higher velocity (910-936 FPS vs. 851-879 FPS), and a superior fit and finish. The Umarex Synergis, while lighter and cheaper, struggled with accuracy until a PCP-style hold was used and had a potential magazine retention issue.
