Only have experience with cfx: barrel seal shaving off on the one I had, so crap by design IMHO

I have a Gamo or two (my user name may give this away) and obviously I like them. The Gamo 440 is a great buy and with a Welsh Willy trigger it will be transformed. Most of the comments above are correct but with the new trigger (Is it now Woodfield guns?) and maybe a tuning kit you will definately be punching (targets) above your weight. Go for it if you are after some fun and you will surprise people who have paid a lot more for their rifles.
Definitely good little starter rifles, plenty of shops do starter kits with a B2 , scope and bag for about 100 quid or a whisper sting for about 130... i know which i would buy! You can look at remingtons but they are rather heavy IMO, if you want to start out in PCP the 2nd gen Phox with removable silencer is pretty much the best value kit on the market so again a fantastic brand for entry level new gear, i agree they arent as refined as some others but solid reliable gear that doesnt break the bank so for plinking fun or inexperienced shooters they make a great starting place
They're better than they were a few years back, but don't seem to get much credit for it.
Indeed
I bought the Maxima Elite which has a much better multi shot system than the old BSA Goldstar.
i own and old gamo 440 WT in .22 and love mine i own and ultra mmc and a bsa spitfire too have used guns from the more expensive guns and personally i can get the gamo to do what i want every time mines running at 11.4 ft lb and is nice to use not overly hard to cock and i like it. but i must say this gun is probably 15 years old so a new one i would have no idea on!
