 Lonnie Smith's recommendation | |
Repeatably accurate right from the box. Hits hard even with .177 caliber. Very nice stock and blueing. Handles nicely. Not to heavy and not to light.
If anything the price but it is first class all the way so I really can't even hold that against it. It is noticeably much nicer than the standard R9.
I was looking for a gun to introduce me to the sport of Field Target and still be mindful of my budget. I had zero experience with airguns. After a lot of advice and trying out a lot of shooters at the airgun association I decided on an R9. I liked the simplicity of the break barrel design and it was only half the price of the higher end springers. I went for the Goldfinger because of the nicer stock and finish. It was well worth the extra cost as everything about this airgun is top notch. Mine came with a 12x Bushnell Banner scope. The combo was presighted and was spot on accurate with Beemans FTS pellets right from the box at 20yards. It has proven to be a delight in every way and I expect to be shooting it for quite some time.
