yes Elohim.'s recommendation

Good Points

very powerfull ( 290 m/s in .177 cal. ), scope stop included, nice finish, handling,
fixed barrel, easy to cock due to underlever, value for money, fiber optics, handy plastic loading port.

Bad Points

trigger, cheap looking prone plastic front sight, loosening screws.

General Comments

The El Gamo CF-30 is an excellent gun for its money.
Strange, creepy second stage trigger. Often contributes in poor accuracy. Gun tends to move when the triger is pulled through the second stage. At larger distances this could be problematic.
Although groups averaging 0.20 " at 12 yards with Gamo Pro Magnum pellets are possible but demands utmost concentration.
Front sight wrongly mounted at factory and very prone when used in the field. Regularly inspection of the screws is recommended. Even blue LocTite didn't help. (I didn't degrease the screws though) Lot of spring twang.
The plastic loading port prevents long scopes so be aware when buying one.
Low cost, value for money airrifle suited for plinking and entry level field target.

Respect given for Elohim.'s review.

    I am seriously thinking about buying a CF-30 as my second gun (my first was a TF-88). Does anyone have 1st hand chrono data on this rifle (Gamo CF-30)? Anyone fitted a Scope on the CF-30 (what type of scope and what type of mount)? Please e-mail us your experience. Thanks

    CAN YOU TELL ME WERE YOU GOT YOUR GUN FROM, AS MINE ONLY SHOOTS ABOUT 11.5 FT/LB WERE YOURS SHOOTS AT 28 FT/LB, VERY IMPRESSIVE. YOU SHOULD BE HITING 30MM GROUPS AT 80 METRES WITH THAT POWER NOT 15 METRES.
