    Wadcutter for FX Impact .177

    At least I'm not the only one with Smooth Twist that doesn't like wadcutters... Polymags- Too rich for my blood... Plus the length doesn't always play nice with the Impact magazine from what I've heard. H&N Crow Magnums- I'll have to give them a try... I was afraid that the ST barrel and...

    Wadcutter for FX Impact .177

    Has anyone found a .177 wadcutter that the FX Impact likes? If so at what velocity? The best I've found from my testing is the RWS Supermag and even then I've only been able to get my groups down to 1.5 cm at 20 meters. (For comparison JSB Exact 10.34 are giving me one hole groups at that...

    FX Impact magazine won't advance pellets

    Oops... I gave some incorrect advice! The small alan bolt is the one on the all metal side and the large one is on the clear plastic side. To add a bit more clarification regarding the actual adjustment. With both alan wrenches in place loosen the large one half a turn then you can unscrew...

    FX Impact Valve Control Knob

    I won't beat a dead horse about what the adjusters do, (that's already been well stated above) however because I'm a total geek and regularly switch between .177 and .30 I'm always adjusting both the power wheel and valve limiter. I've also tested reg adjustment in 10(ish) bar steps from 100-143...

    A warning for Leshiy owners (Graphic)

    Ouch!... However from a detached and scientific view, that is a fantastic example of the effects of a high powered airgun on living tissue including bone... I'm not going to volunteer to be a guinea pig but your sacrafice has lessons to learn and data to process... That clearly would be...

    A question for guys that use pumps

    No problem... It only gets tough for me when the temp is 40+ (105F+) even then it's not hard but keeping the dripping sweat off the gun/pump can be a challenge... I'm 150 lbs and use the FX 4 stage filling a 480cc bottle from 125 bar to 250 bar. I only switch to the 4th stage at 200(ish) bar...
