Pushed The Order Button on .22 CFX

[longislandhunter]

This may be the last post I ever make on GTA cause when my wife finds out I just ordered another airgun I may not be physically able to type ever again,,,, but,,,,, I was browsing on Pyramydair and saw that they have .22 cal CFX's back in stock for $219.95

It's a combo model that comes with a BSA 4x32 AO scope and rings,, I just couldn't pass it up

I realize the scope an the rings are not the best, and I would've rather ordered just the rifle, but the combo is the only .22 they have listed so I couldn't pass it up.  I love my .177 CFX so much that I just had to have the .22

Anyway, just wanted to share my excitement with ya's and also post that if you're interested in a .22 CFX you can get one currently at Pyramydair.

Congrat's Jeff  I seen that add. and was interested until I seen this monster. The Gamo Hunter 1250 Hurricane .177. I'm working on a real early X-MAS gift to myself hehe. Let us know how she throw's lead when you get it, if you make it back here ALIVE!. LOL. Ed

Very cool Jeff. I'm jealous, LOL.

I just got my .177 CFX 3 days ago and already love it. Gotta save my pennys for a .22 companion to go with her. I'm really glad the .22 is available again, hope it's not just a short term thing.

Let us know how it shoots.

Thanks Ed,,,, I'm really lookin forward to gettin the gun.  As for the 1250 .177,,,, that gun definately would be a game getter for sure.  My .22 1250 packs a heck of a whallop,,, the .177 with the correct pellets should be absolutely awesome.

Hey Jeff... The CFX .22 was never sold in the US before.. Hmmmmm, and I am surprised that they are even selling a .22 of any kind after there announcement last summer about no more .22 sold at all in the US agian..

If it is a .22, you will love it..

Gene

[longislandhunter]

Yeah Gene, I'm really looking forward to getting it.  I really love my .177 CFX so when I saw that the .22 was available I jumped on it.  I always wanted a .22 but wasn't prepared to do the overseas ordering thing.  Before I hit the order button on Pyramydair I checked a number of large GAMO online retailers and Pyramydair is the only vendor selling the .22 version.  I'm wondering if perhaps Pyramydair just came into possession of a shipment or two, so I hit the order button immediately so I could get one and not take a chance on them selling out before I ordered it.  It would be great if GAMO does in fact start selling the .22's again in the USA, but just in case they don't I wanted to get my .22 CFX while I could.

I'm jealous, Jeff, I wanted to do the same thing as soon as I heard Pyramyd had them, but the wife is already on the warpath re: airguns :-(!  I'm thinking a one off custom, though, do the gas ram thing again, and talk to Ed Canoles about an oring sealed piston cap.  That $200 rifle would be over $400 by the time I was done.  And then I'd still need to do something about a stock :-)!  Oh, well, I can only hope they last awhile.  Got a birthday coming up in 3 weeks, maybe I can sneak something in that way.  Later.

Well Dave,,,, my wife doesn't know yet so I haven't felt her wrath yet, BUT IT'S COMING !! But I want that rifle so bad I'm just gonna grit my teeth and take the full force    My backup plan is to tell her about the rifle then hand her the cash to cover the charge.  I've managed to squirrel away enough cash to cover it but I was planning on spending that money on a Crosman Phantom so I'd rather not offer it up, but if I get beat up bad enough I guess I'll have to pay up

Jeff, congrats on the new CFX,  but I thought you were tucking back to get a .20 Goldfinger . It's only airgun money though, so getem all , eventually the wife will hush,hehe.

[longislandhunter]

Hey Mike,,,,, actually I did manage to stash away enough cash to buy the .20 Goldfinger and a Crosman G-1 Extreme.  I'll be pushing the order button on the Goldfinger very soon but since I went and bought the CFX I'll guess I'll have to wait a bit now on the Extreme.  

Jeff

Heres mine...3 weeks old, also a .22..shoots very nice

Looks good Ken,,, what kind of FPS are you getting with it?  Also, is that the scope that came with it?  If so how has it worked for you?  And last but not least,,, what kind of pellets have you found performed the best?  

Sorry for all the questions.

Jeff, I haven't shot any, but PA has JSB Predator Ultrashocks on sale for $8. They look like a predator without the red tip, if they fly straight they would be nice. They look like they would exspand more than a reguler hollow point, because the hole is bigger. Might be worth a try.

Thanks Mike,   I'll take a look at them.
