derekm, one question I do have is, how do you get the rubber inserts out
to get to the stock screws without damaging them?
I can replace the whole stock for $29 US so it's not the end of the world,
but I'd like to learn how to do it correctly.
Any advice would be appreciated,
Thanks.
Silo,
The CFX Royal with the wooden stock does not have the rubber inserts, but I think you simply pry them out carefully with a very small screwdriver.
Drop a mail to Rich from Mich http://home.comcast.net/~peterdragin...ml/default.htm
He will be able to tell you precisely, as he works on your version all the time.

Thanks Derek,
I contacted him today, I might just send him the whole rifle and let him
do his magic with it.
I'll just have to get it past the boss ...... which might take a wine and dine
on Friday night
Slight thread drift I have a 20 year old Gamo cadet owned from new, a bit down on power maybe (memory could be fooling me!) but it's all still ok despite not having had a moments tender loving care!

I don't doubt your Gamo is still OK. Maybe they would be more popular in the UK if they cost more! Just look at the £80+ jeans on the market. Jeans = workclothes (originally).

Well I sent my CFX off to Rich on Monday, he's working his magic
on it as we speak, I should have it back before next weekend.
I'll put up a "Pre and Post tune" review when I get it back.
Thanks for giving me his name Derek, he seems to really know his stuff.
I can't wait to feel the CFX after everything he plans to do to it for me.
