Hey Kent,

Sorry it took a while to get back to you.  I do think you made the right choice.  I have a few other air rifles and this one has just what I required.  Spending the extra money was wise.  And to answer your thought on addictions... Yeah buddy!!!  I'm up to 6 guns now!?!?!  I like using it in the back yard in the manner we spoke of but I find it also helps me stay in training for shooting bench 223 and 308.  If you can keep tight groups at 30 yards with this rifle with its trigger pull and length of draw???  You can follow rounds into the same hole with something that has a 1.5lb or 2lb match trigger on a cartrige rifle.  I really can't say enough about the CFX.

What are your thoughts now that you've had it for a little while?

Hey Jack,
    Well, after shooting the first few rounds thru her the trigger was lacking.  I adjusted it as good as it would get, but I could tell that it would still take some getting used to.  I probably fired 30-40 rounds thru it with the stock trigger, then after I got the gun apart.....finally....I put Bob's GRT III trigger in it.  I wanted to first see what the stock one was like just to see the difference, and what a difference it was!!!!!   WWWOOOOOOOWWWW.  If you dont have it in yours, man, you dont know what you are missing.  My shots were grouping a bit better after that.  And the accuracy is definatly better than I can shoot, but at 30 yrds with the GRT III trigger my groups would fit into the size of a nickle, with 5 shots, and again, but had a stray, but I believe that was me tho.  It does shoot really good.  I love it!!!!   Them there tree rats are in for it now, the squirellinator is back in town!!!!!!!

Hey Squirrelinator,

LMAO>>>>>  Glad to hear your reaction, and welcome to the CFX.  You're right, any misgivings on paper are yours.  I do it with mine on a regular basis.  Then I have to remind myself  THE ZEN of BENCH REST!!!!!!!!!....aquire target, breath, relax, center it up, breeath, relaaax, draw up the first stage, breeeath,relaaaaaax.... focus on the cross hairs, hold breath..... draaaaaw the trigger iiiiin and, Viola!!!!!!!!!!!!  I've got to place an order with Bob and get two triggers.  One for my Cfx and one for a quest 1000.  Yeah I love this rifle,even with the stock trigger.  It's comming into its own now too.  I would have thought it was going to be the most accurate right out of the box ( come to find out a little misconception I had about air guns) but it keeps getting better.  Now about 1500 rounds... done some shootin this week.  I cant wait to hear your reaction after a 1000 rounds are through it.  Okay I'm raving on again.

Be cool and fun shooting to you,

J

Jack,
     Yeah, totaly agree on the ZEN OF BENCH REST!!!!   Reckon I am gettin to old to hold as steady as I should, but I'll get er as good as 'I' can get er, not as good as the gun can get.  Shot is some more today, the wind wasnt as bad at that time, and shot a 5 shot group and left one ragged hole.  Sure was sweet.  Had to use one of the lil ladys pillows to rest things on, but what the hell, it worked.  I love that gun!!!  Have I mentioned that yet??  Yeah, you will really love yours once you get the trigger in it.  Sure makes it one sweet, smooth shooting rifle.  Let me know how it goes when you get it in, ok?
